MPC Expansion: Trap Soul & RnB Black Friday deal: the Laniakea Sounds pack for AKAI's MPC is 48% off at $15, with the offer ending Jan 10, 2027.
This expansion pack for MPC software or hardware is built around Trap Soul and melodic RnB. AKAI Professional and Laniakea Sounds present it as the next chapter in Trap Soul music.
The maker says it holds over 300 kicks, snares, claps, melodic loops, 808s, vocal FX and chops, percussion, snaps and SFX.
The sounds are sorted into 20 MPC producer kits. Here is the breakdown by sound type:
If you work from the drum side, the 808s, kicks, snares and claps give you a full low-end and backbeat set to build on. The 65 hats and cymbals cover the top of the kit.
The maker describes the loops as elegant, with clean sound design, charming vocal atmospheres and silk melodies in each kit.
Laniakea Sounds says it mixed material from its bestselling sample packs and applied new processing techniques. The aim, in the maker's words, was an intimate, mellow sound that blurs the line between Trap, RnB and Chillout.
The 53 vocal FX and the ethereal vocal chops are there for atmosphere. The 44 melodic loops give you a harmonic bed to chop, layer or build a bus around.
The expansion is compatible with the AKAI MPC Beats DAW.
You need MPC software or hardware to use it. It is an expansion pack for the MPC environment, so it loads where MPC loads expansions.
The maker says the kits are made so you can start cooking up tracks on your MPC straight away. Each producer kit bundles drums, loops and vocal material together, so you can start a beat from one kit instead of hunting through folders.
Laniakea Sounds also invites you to follow them on Soundcloud for their latest projects and those of their partners.
