Where it started
My journey with Akai MPC began back in 2009, when I watched a video featuring Boon Doc. That video inspired me to buy my very first MPC, and I've been hooked ever since.
I'm a medical equipment developer and a professional in 3D printing. I'm also a proud single dad raising two amazing kids — my 10-year-old son and my 3-year-old daughter.
In my free time, I'm passionate about making music, experimenting with hardware, and modifying my Akai MPCs. I'm also a big tea lover — there is almost always a cup of good tea next to the MPC.

Over the years, I've owned and worked with different MPC models, but the Akai MPC 4000 has always been my favorite. I can't really explain why — there's just something special about sitting in front of it and making music.
I genuinely enjoy every moment I spend with it. I even love the way it looks.
“Sometimes I can just sit there and admire it without touching a single button.”
On this website, I share my personal projects, including software modifications, hardware upgrades, and other experiments I've been working on.
I build these things because I genuinely love doing it, and I hope some of my projects will be useful or inspiring to others in the MPC community.
My modified MPC4000 operating system. Version 1.8: slicing into 96 regions, direct input monitoring, auditioning files while a sequence plays.
Open projectA modern macOS app that flashes the MPC4000 operating system over USB. Replaces Akai's PowerPC-era OS Loader.
Open projectAkai's ak.Sys editor and librarian rebuilt for the browser. Works with a real sampler over USB or a built-in virtual one.
Open projectThanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoy my projects as much as I enjoy creating them.
