  • Feb 05, 2018  Hi everybody, I have just bought the brilliant akai mpk mini mk2 to use it with garageband. I have a problem with it and I hope you will be able to help me. When I run a project in GB, I choose a drum kit and tap on the pads. But pads are not set like I want. The kick is on the bank A, the snare on bank B. This is not so useful to play with.:-( I try to use the mpk editor and try to set.
