USB Port: Use a standard USB cable to connect this USB port to a USB port on your
computer. The computer's USB port will provide power to MPK mini. This connection is
also used to send and receive MIDI data to and from your computer.
Sustain Pedal Input: Connect an optional 1/4" TS sustain pedal to this input.
Keyboard: This 25-note keyboard is velocity-sensitive and, in conjunction with the
Octave Down / Up buttons, can control a ten-octave range. You can use the keys to
access certain additional commands, as well.
Octave Down / Up: Use these buttons to shift the keyboard's range up or down (up to
four octaves in either direction). When you are higher or lower than the center octave, the
corresponding Octave button will light. Press both Octave buttons simultaneously to
reset the keyboard to the default center octave.
Arpeggiator On/Off: Press this button to turn the Arpeggiator on or off. Pressing it
during a latched arpeggio will stop the arpeggio.
Hold down Arpeggiator On/Off and press a key on MPK mini's keyboard to enter new
settings for the Arpeggiator:
• Time Division: 1/4 note, 1/4 note triplet (1/4T), 1/8 note, 1/8 note triplet (1/8T), 1/16
note, 1/16 note triplet (1/16T), 1/32 note, or 1/32 note triplet (1/32T).
• Mode: The mode determines how the arpeggiated notes are played back.
o Up: Notes will sound from the lowest to the highest.
o Down: Notes will sound from the highest to lowest.
o Incl (Inclusive): Notes will sound from the lowest to the highest, and then back
down. The lowest and highest notes will sound twice at the directional change.
o Excl (Exclusive): Notes will sound from the lowest to the highest, and then back
down. The lowest and highest notes will sound only once at the directional
change.
o Order: Notes will sound in the order they were pressed.

o Rand (Random): Notes will sound in random order.
o Latch: The Arpeggiator will continue to arpeggiate the notes even after you lift
your fingers. While holding down the keys, you can add more notes to the
arpeggiated chord by pressing down additional keys. If you press the keys,
release them, and then press down a new combination of notes, the
Arpeggiator will memorize and arpeggiate the new notes.
• Octave: Arpeggio octave range (Arp Oct) of 0, 1, 2, or 3 octaves.
• Swing: 50% (no swing), 55%, 57%, 59%, 61%, or 64%.
6. Tap Tempo: Tap this button at the desired rate to determine the tempo of the
Arpeggiator. The minimum number of taps required is programmable in the MPK mini
Editor.
Note: This button is disabled if the Arpeggiator is synced to an external clock.
X-Y Controller: Use this 4-axis thumbstick to send MIDI pitch bend messages or send
MIDI CC messages. You can use the free, downloadable MPK mini Editor to assign how
this X-Y Controller functions.
Pads: The pads can be used to trigger drum hits or other samples in your software. The
pads are velocity-sensitive, which makes them very responsive and intuitive to play. You
can use the free, downloadable MPK mini Editor to assign what MIDI message each pad
(in each pad bank) sends.
Bank A/B: Press this button to switch MPK mini's pads between Pad Bank A or Pad
Bank B. You can use the free, downloadable MPK mini Editor to assign what MIDI
message each pad (in each pad bank) sends.

10. CC: When this button is active, MPK mini's pads will send MIDI CC messages instead of
MIDI Note On messages. You can use the free, downloadable MPK mini Editor to assign
what CC message each pad sends.
11. Prog Change: When this button is active, MPK mini's pads will send MIDI Program
Change messages instead of MIDI Note On messages. You can use the free,
downloadable MPK mini Editor to assign what Program Change message each pad
sends.
12. Full Level: Press this button to activate or deactivate Full Level Mode in which the pads
always play at a maximum velocity (127), no matter how hard or soft you hit them.
13. Note Repeat: Press and hold this button while striking a pad to cause the pad to
retrigger at a rate based on the current Tempo and Time Division settings.
14. Assignable Knobs: Each 270º knob sends a MIDI CC message. You can use the free,
downloadable MPK mini Editor to assign what CC message each knob sends.
15. Prog Select: Hold down this button and press Pad 5, Pad 6, Pad 7, or Pad 8 to select
the Program whose number is printed above that pad (Prog 1, Prog 2, Prog 3, or Prog
4).
