SPARK IDEAS WITH CREATIVE TOOLS

With intelligent Scale and Chord modes, Akai MPK Mini MK4 is built to keep your ideas moving. These features aren’t just shortcuts; they’re creative catalysts that turn sketches into songs.

SCALE Mode

Never hit a wrong note again. Lock the keybed to one of dozens of scales and every key you play fits the vibe. Discover tonalities and progressions you might never have written on your own.

Chord Mode

Turn single notes into full harmonies. Play rich chords with one finger and sketch progressions in seconds. Perfect for topline ideas, creating harmony, or laying down instant foundations.

THE ARPEGGIATOR, SUPERCHARGED

We designed the arpeggiator to be more than a utility: it’s a sketchpad for riffs, grooves, and unexpected ideas. Lock in patterns, flip them on the fly, and sync seamlessly to your session. With Freeze, Mutate, and stepped dynamics on the pads, your sequences don’t just loop—they evolve.

Explore seven arp play modes, including Chord mode for keybed-wide note repeats.

Stay locked in

Hands-on dynamics

Pattern and Edit modes let the pads inject accents, ties, and ratchets into your arp pattern.
