AKAI MPC EXPANSIONS
Marco Polo’s drums, loaded straight into your MPC. These official Akai expansions come pre-mapped for MPC hardware and software – the same hard, dusty drums behind his work with Rakim, Scarface, Masta Ace and Pharoahe Monch. They are sold exclusively at Akai’s MPC Store; every button below takes you there.
