Onboard Wi-Fi/Bluetooth allows for wireless synchronization with Ableton Link and MPC OS Updates, and the SD Card Reader allows for volumes of expandable sounds and tracks.

    DAW INTEGRATION

    MPC Key 37 features a built in 2-in 2-out USB audio/MIDI interface, so you can record audio and MIDI directly in and out of your computer. The included MPC software is a standalone DAW on your Mac or PC, so you get all the tactility and control of the hardware, but with as many tracks as your computer can handle. MPC software also comes as a VST/AU plug-in so you can open it in major DAWs such as FL Studio, Logic, Ableton, Pro Tools, Studio One and more, and combine your favorite workflows.
