6/16/24: Given that I (Roger) designed the MPC drum machines for Akai years ago, I am occasionally asked by customers what I think of the current MPC products, to which I must answer "I don't know" because I haven't kept up with them. So Akai sent me one and I made a video discussing what I think of it. To my surprise, the video has gotten 180,000 views so far, as well as many very kind comments.
8/18/23: My friend and Silicon Valley CEO Joe Britt created an enhanced redesign of my first drum machine, the LM-1 Drum Computer.
