Great paired with reverb, overdrive, distortion - and at that price! Love it
I’ve been updating my amp - attenuator - cabinet connectivity with these cables and they have made such an improvement over mg original cables. To my ears a fuller sound.
The team at Better Music were great, keeping me well updated regarding the status of the back order.
Very pleased.
I love this beautiful guitar! I play finger style and it sounds warmer than Yamaha FGX800C that I have before. Also the materials feel delicate and premium.
This is amazing! 6 weeks into playing tenor horn and unable to get above C#, I can now now get to G using the adaptor and my French horn mouthpiece. I can now play Baby Elephant Walk (2nd horn) comfortably.
Absolutely love the Akai MPC Sample!!
I have been keen to purchase an MPC for sometime. As someone who used to DJ but had never made beats, I had held off due to the cost. (Worried I wouldn't have time to dedicate to learning, or if I would ever make anything worthwhile after spending the money) The low price and simplicity of the Sample, was enough for me to take that leap and put the money down..
I have had the sample for one week and have already become confortable navigating the basics. As a first timer, I have already made a hand full of shitty beats and have been having so much fun. I can already tell, I will get my moneys worth out of this unit. Zero buyers remorse over here!
A friend of mine who has always made beats on a DAW, just recieved his yesterday. I told him... it is more adictive than smoking. If i walk past it, it is hard not turnimg it on..
As an older enthusiast, I have been looking for a creative outlet that doesn't involve being part of a band, or being the grey haired bloke playing music to a room full of first time adults.
The Sample has already filled that void.. I think this product could also be marketed as a mental health therapy tool, to people like myself. Haha
I also have a young daughter (7yrs old) My wife and I pump her full of, what we think, is quality music. She loves Hip Hop and House. She always wants to have a scratch on Dad's old Technics, but the learning curve on traditional beat mixing, buying physical music, and trying not to wreck Dad's gear has limited how much fun we could have.
I am looking to purchase the Rane System One, once I think she is ready for it and we can all go digital together (including Mum)
The Sample has already been fun for us to share. I have learnt enough for the two of us to be able to quickly knock out a beat together. She is beatboxing to me on the way home, asking of we can play on the Sample after school. I am so happy I have something to feed her her pasion for music and creativity, that we can do together. (Seeing she will never see Dad in action, like he was.... a long long looong time ago)
Great job Akai, I love this device!
Early days, but if the Sample stays this popular at my house... I might have to buy another one. (Or Dad might end up needing the MPC Live 3.. haha)
Long review, but I must say... The best investment I have made for myself in decades!
The Customer Service from Jol at Better Music, while the back order was in play, was also second to none. Thanks Jol, thanks Better Music and thanks Akai!!
Another very satisfied customer.

Such a wicked unit, I'm so stoked I picked it up and that it was available at Better Music. As an old Canberran, I know this store, so I was happy to be able to support it. Quickest delivery and best price on the web!
It is a full DAW in a box, simple to use, follows the tried and tested MPC workflow and has all the latest features and functions that you expect. I had a song done in a day. Simply wicked.
Just AMAZING - I knew it would be coming out of the same Dalian Cort factory my Gold OC6 was made. Solid Torrified Adi top, with Aussie Blackwood back and sides; great acoustic tone from that combination! I am adding a mag/mic pick up to the piezo however. Piezo is ok when EQing out that quack, but would like a bit more than that.
The Akai MPC Sample is an excellent entry-level device for Akai-style sampling. I have been using it daily and the learning curve is quite easy with online tutorials. I have been posting content with it online. Service and communication from Better Music was good however the waiting time for the back-order was surprising uncomfortable in these times of [almost] instant gratification with online purchases. Perhaps a follow-up message with some extra communication regarding specific order and delivery times would reassure future customers who have long wait times. Apart from the long wait very happy and will get a lot of use from this product before possibly upgrading to a Live 3 or similar.
Wow!! Love this organ, amazing sounds and tones I'm sure I'll be getting years of enjoyment and I'm already learning something new every day.
2nd review ,after the software was released.
Loving it!
Fantastic mic stand , best i've ever owned , excellent quality
Thanks BetterMusic. I got the order in early and it came through as soon as shipments made it to Australia. They had the best price for this 75th Anniversary Fender P Bass. Top stuff. Well shielded too for anyone interested. Fender have improved that since the last P bass I had (2020). It's silent as.
Only had brief play with this, but unit loops easily & controls are logical. Drums are good for practice with plenty of variety. Love the fact that it plays full size backing tracks to jam with. I have loaded dozens & they sound authentic (no song names though). I will find plenty of uses for this pedal, as there are lots of input & output choices. Love it so far!
Excellent service...received my order a fender guitar strap...for our Grandson's birthday. Thank you.
What a beauty, so much value in this and I couldn't be happier.
I bought this for working on my tenor sax reeds. This is an excellent tool for adjusting reeds. Makes easy work of flattening the back of reeds. Highly recommend. Improved the playability and tone of my reeds around 20% with minimal effort.
Almost perfect. could be a little longer and a little deeper. i've got an MPC 1000, Sp 404 and a macbook air. It all fits but is just a little tight. Not the bags fault though. Its beautifully made and should last many years.
Wonderful product- a little stiff - would like more movement- but looks so good and feels so good
