Unlock New Possibilities with the Free MPS-10 System Ver. 2 Software Update
We believe in empowering musicians to reach their full creative potential. That’s why we’re excited to announce the release of the MPS-10 System Ver. 2 software update—available now and free to all MPS-10 owners.
Whether you’re a solo performer or use the MPS-10 as part of a full drum kit, this update packs a host of powerful new features and improvements designed to take your drumming experience to the next level. Let’s dive into what’s new.
1. Enhanced Performance with Refreshed Kits & Improved Interface
With the System Ver. 2 update, the MPS-10’s preset kits have been revitalised, offering a fresh new range of inspiring sounds right at your fingertips. But that’s not all—navigating through your kits and pad assignments is now smoother than ever, thanks to an improved user interface. The MPS-10’s vibrant full-colour display ensures you always know what’s happening at a glance, so you can focus on your performance.
2. Continuous Control (CC) Pads—Upgraded for Precision and Flexibility
The CC pads were already a standout feature of the MPS-10, but Version 2 brings them to a whole new level. You can now control effects like MFX and filters in real time, with graphical displays providing instant feedback on how your sound is being shaped. Even better, each CC pad can now support individual rhythm patterns, including triplet note values, giving you even more creative flexibility.
The addition of Mod Delay, Chorus, and Tape Echo effects further expands your sound-shaping possibilities. These effects respond dynamically to how you play, so the harder you hit, the more intensity you can dial in.
3. Expanded Connectivity with External Triggers and Pedals
Version 2 makes the MPS-10 even more versatile with support for four external triggers and pre-assigned expression pedals. You can easily connect cymbal triggers, hi-hat and kick triggers, and expression pedals, giving you immediate access to new sonic options. And with the graphical guide for calibrating expression pedals, setup is simple and seamless.
4. Advanced Sound Design & Control with Pad Link and OSC Routing
The Pad Link function is another exciting addition in Version 2. Now, you can hit one pad and simultaneously trigger others linked to it, creating complex layers and textures for your performances.
The OSC routing has also been upgraded, allowing you to send OSC1 and OSC2 (the sound engines assigned to each pad) to different outputs. For instance, you could monitor both OSC1 and OSC2 through your headphones while sending only OSC1 to the speakers—giving you more control over your live setup than ever before.
5. Stay in Time with the Trigger Reserve Function
Keeping perfect timing is key, and the new Trigger Reserve function helps you do just that. By striking a pad just before the metronome’s strong beat, the trigger will sync to the next downbeat—perfect for nailing those tricky rhythmic passages during live performances or studio sessions.
6. Supercharge Your Looping Capabilities
With the Looper Track Export feature, you can instantly assign looped recordings to your pads for immediate playback. This makes it easier than ever to create complex, evolving soundscapes live or in the studio—right from your MPS-10.
7. USB-MIDI Host & Expanded Velocity Curves
Version 2 adds support for USB-MIDI Host, which allows you to directly connect MIDI devices, including drum triggers, sequencers, and controllers, to your MPS-10. You also have eight velocity curves to choose from, letting you fine-tune the sensitivity of your pads for a more expressive performance.
8. Web Editor 2.0 for Intuitive Customisation
Customising your kits is now more intuitive than ever, thanks to the redesigned Web Editor 2.0. Accessible from any PC or Mac browser, the editor lets you tweak every aspect of your MPS-10’s setup with ease—no drivers required. However, note that the Web Editor is only compatible with units running System Ver. 2.0 or later.
