Have Your Say in What Comes Next for MPC & Desktop Plugins!
We’re exploring ideas for future software tools that could inspire music producers, musicians, beatmakers, and audio engineers.
The survey takes about 5 minutes, and all responses are confidential and used only for research purposes.
We’d love to hear your ideas and understand what matters most to you. While we can’t guarantee every suggestion will make it into production, your feedback will help shape the direction we take next. Please take a few minutes to complete our short survey. As a thank-you for your time, you’ll receive an exclusive one-time 30% discount coupon for the MPC Store, sent directly to your email once the survey is closed on March 16th.
Please supply your email address so we can send your reward.
