I hope this helps and If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us directly - amzsupport@inmusicbrands.com Thanks, Krishan

Q: Does this work with cubase 12 without having to manually map everything?

Hi, Akai Pro support here! No - MPK Mini Plus operates as a generic MIDI controller with Cubase. Cubase 12 specifically, has introduced something called 'MIDI Remote' which contains mapping for many MIDI Controllers and the ability to manually map controllers with ease. The included software MPC Beats, can launched as its own plugin within Cubase as a VST. This software contains pre-mapping for MPK Mini Plus. For further support, please contact us - amzsupport@akaipro.com

リ**3

最新のMPCでも、GarageBandでも！

MPK mini mk3に比べてAmazonでのレビューが著しく低い＆少なかったため、実売店で相談しながら購入しました。パッドがベトベトする？しないし。音が出ない？当たり前じゃんMIDIキーボードなんだから。なぜこういうレビューを星１つでするのか不明です。

本体だけでは使えない。

広告を見て、とても楽しみに購入しましたが、周辺機器を繋げないと使用できないことがわかり、翌日返品しましたが、17470円支払って、返金されたのは8235円でした。電源コードを、ビニールから出したからでしょうか。ショックです。

がっかり

Abletonで使えるとのことでしたが使えませんでした。あとパッドがきちんと押さないとダメなのとパッドを押すと分かりますが中がベトついていて不愉快な気持ちになります。久々に機材でがっかりしました。
