Magma Bags - CTRL Case MPC Live 3

Producers know: the AKAI MPC LIVE III deserves more than just a bag, it's the heart of the studio, the tool that captures inspiration at 3am and backstage - so the Magma Bags CTRL Case MPC LIVE III doesn't pull any punches. Its rigid moulded shell, sculpted from 6mm Durashock EVA foam, creates a virtually indestructible shell. The buttons, faders and pads are all encased in a case that keeps them safe from everyday knocks and bumps. You can almost hear the sigh of relief from your MPC as you slide it in.

Open the sturdy zip and there's a surprise. An integrated cable organiser panel spreads its wings. No more USB cables getting tangled up with the headphones in a tote bag. Every cord has its place, ready to be unwound as soon as you arrive at the studio. The removable egg-shaped padding adapts to the curves of the machine, hugging its protuberances without leaving any empty space where the energy of a shock could spread.

When it comes to transport, we're not kidding around either. The shoulder strap allows you to carry the unit hands-free when you're lugging around your speakers and stand. The comfortable carrying handles provide a firm grip for short journeys. And the water-repellent polyester cackles in the face of sudden downpours between the car and the venue. For extreme protection freaks, a Decksaver® fits over the top, adding a barrier against dust and pressure.
