It’s not currently possible to install third party expansions to the built-in 16GB internal drive, so instead we have to install expansions to an 'attached' disk.

This will be a ‘zip archive’ so you will first need to extract the files using your computer’s default zip application – if you don’t have one, try the free, open source 7zip.Īfter extracting the files to a location on your computer, you’ll see something like this: Downloading & Extracting Your ExpansionĪfter purchasing you can download the book from your File Bank.

For installing expansions into the MPC Software, check out our ‘ MPC Software Expansion Installation’ article. This article covers installing our MPC Expansions into ‘standalone’ mode in the MPC Live/X/One and Akai Force. Installing our MPC Expansions into the MPC Live, MPC X, MPC One and Akai Force is quick and easy as we include a dedicated ‘standalone’ installer with all our expansions which you simply drag and drop to your MPC/Force disk.
