Akai Professional has combined their legendary MPC platform with a keyboard workstation for the first time! The new MPC Key 61 is one of the most feature-packed standalone production tools ever produced. Akai's MPC changed music forever in the late '80s once pop and hip-hop luminaries got their hands on it, and this MPC Key 61 features refined versions of MPC tools with additional pressure-sensitive velocity pads, pad memory, 63 function buttons, and much more. Use the MPC Key 61 as a standalone workstation; a controller/input for DAWs, MIDI devices, or hardware synths; as a sampler; and almost anything else. The onboard LED display features a spacious 8.5-inch x 5.5-inch touchscreen that can be set flat or upright to suit your playing, and the MPC’s 16GB flash storage comes loaded with 10GB of pre-installed content ready for use right out of the box. Plus, it’s easy to expand the MPC’s storage thanks to a built-in drive bay for solid-state or hard disk drives, a feature that Sweetwater MPC enthusiasts are excited to embrace. Legions of devotees are lining up to snag this piece of MPC innovation — order yours today!

The Martin D-15M acoustic guitar is a throwback to Martin's Style 15 models, which had their heyday back in the 1940s. A departure from Martin's more common spruce-topped models, the D-15M features an A-frame-X-braced mahogany top on an all-mahogany dreadnought body. A truly unique instrument, you'll find that the deep overtones of this all-mahogany dreadnought is perfect for filling out higher vocals and accompanying brighter spruce-topped acoustic guitars. If you're looking for an acoustic that combines complex tones and powerful projection, you're going to love the Martin D-15M!

Do your mixes sound great in your studio, but like mud on large, full-range systems? If so, you need a subwoofer like the Kali Audio WS-12. This powered sub boasts 1,000 watts, a 23Hz–160Hz frequency response, and a 123dB maximum SPL, giving it enough volume to handle any situation and enough low-end extension to faithfully reproduce your mix’s low-frequency content. Plus — like other Kali Audio speakers — the WS-12’s low-noise port tube yields clean, punchy bass. This subwoofer is infinitely versatile, thanks to back-panel dip switches that control its crossover frequency, output level, polarity, and more. Beyond that, a rear-panel jack enables you to use a third-party footswitch to bypass the subwoofer — a must-have for studio applications. The WS-12 is small enough to fit anywhere, yet durable enough to withstand the rigors of the road. Whether you need to mix low-frequency content, or want to add punch to your setup, Kali’s WS-12 will deliver the performance you demand.

The Martin HD-28 dreadnought acoustic guitar boasts the same design that made the D-28 a classic — herringbone top trim and Martin's time-tested scalloped X-bracing. Used in all styles of music, the HD-28 offers the deep bass response that's made Martin dreadnoughts so popular. Yet it also has a high-end presence that sings out even in heavy instrumentation. You'll love the gorgeous sound of the classic tonewood combination of Sitka spruce on top and rosewood back and sides. The Martin HD-28 is both loud and subtle and has a quick response with excellent note definition. Many acoustic players here at Sweetwater have an HD-28 in their collection.

The Image 2 is dedicated to nearfield and midfield use. Using the latest in DSP development and Class-D amplification we have pushed the limits to stunning results. The Image 2 delivers incredible imaging, frequency response, output, low distortion, and depth of field. With its unique look, compact size and a performance that is hard to believe.

The Image 2 is a 2 in 1 monitor; a full range mixing and mastering system that also offers a mixcube mode. Mixcube mode helps dial in low end and mids for a wide range of “bass challenged” devices. It also helps adjust the overall balance, depth, vocals, and nail the kickdrum.

Future-ready USB port functionality furthers the Image 2’s incredible sonic features and will extend the ability to accurately process source material via onboard room correction in the future.

In addition, our newly developed AMT tweeter delivers precise transient response and high details free of distortion. Clarity has never been this easy.

Our in-house custom aluminum cone mid-range driver utilize shorting rings, substantially reducing the harmonic and intermodulation distortion associated with voice coil displacement. It also reduces the modulation of magnetic flux during the movement of the voice coil to make the variation of system inductances more linear as input current varies. The end result is an accuracy so clean mixing takes on a whole new flow.

Dual 8″ Opposed ultra-long-throw interlocked bass woofers add improved cabinet stability and provide extended bandwidth (28 Hz-20 kHz – +/- 4.6dB). Each bass driver is individually powered by the latest state of the art 225W Class-D amplifier.

And driving this system is our newly developed Class-D amplifier with very low distortion, ample headroom, lower output noise, improved THD+N performance, improved IMD performance, and lower output impedance.

Utilizing a closed cabinet provides a natural roll off, lack of “bass humps”, and less likelihood of unwanted frequency interaction with the room which means these monitors are less sensitive to positioning.

All of this together makes mixing and mastering on the Image 2 a more accurate and enjoyable experience than ever before.
