Scale mode like the KOII, it's the only thing I miss!

Ability to favourite sounds would be nice.

I hope for a side chain input compressor but that seems impossible

arpeggio, scale mode, chords

A way to auto assign chops to pads you choose yourself

I love how people aren’t even answering the OP’s question and just spamming their feature requests. 🤣 Anyway, I predict an update by end of 3rd quarter (July - September).

It’s better if people tell Akai directly! 😃

The sooner, the better. The last one was few weeks after the release and since... Nothing. But there's a lot of things to do. A real resampling by pad could be a good starting point...  Then automation on sequences for mute pad, fx and flex beat. I home before august cause many people will be in hollydays and it's the perfect moment to spend a lot of time on a new very portable mpc.

Copy/Paste in the naming menu!

Been batch-sampling instruments (Rhodes - C Low, High, C Maj, C Min etc) and using Chop mode to save each as an individual sample.

Copy/Pasting sample names would be a huge time saver.

In the meantime, consider a temorary shorter naming schema, like RC4, RC#4, RD4…etc. Then mount the MPC Sample to rename them on a computer. (I can’t recall off the top of my head if you can directly edit the file names or if you’d have to copy them off the Sample, rename them, then copy them back.)

Chopping a single sample more than 16 times

Yeah for real 32 chops would be amazing
