- There are actually two types of Expansion pack; the first is a ‘plugin expansion‘ which is a software instrument and is simply Akai’s own version of a VST or AU plugin. The MPC Software has the Hybrid expansion pre-installed, but you can also download other plugin expansions from your akaipro.com account such as the Bank, Wub and Noise.
- The Akai Force uses the standard MPC Expansion format which means every expansion on our site can be installed in the Force with a simple drag & drop onto your Force's disk. All kits and instruments in our expansions map automatically to your Akai Force pads, with all keygroup programs fully compatible with Note mode.

Dark Mood is a new MPC expansion produced in a collaboration between thecyclekit.com and The Beat Community Facebook group.
Dark Mood features a sampled Yamaha Piaggero NP31 76-Key, a lightweight, compact, portable keyboard. The Piano was processed using UAD SSL 4000 G Bus Compressor and Ampex ATR-102 Mastering Tape Recorder. There are also two bundled Akai plugins assigned to the program as additional processing (large Reverb and Master compressor).
Each sample in Dark Mood lasts approximately 4 seconds and sampled between C0 thru C5 over 4 velocity layers. Only 4 seconds of every note was sampled because we wanted to keep the size of the piano below 250 megs. The kit is 249 megs unzipped and will work in both MPC as a standalone instrument and in controller mode.
The Cycle Kit and Beat Community tell us the piano in Dark Mood works well for Trap music and vintage R&B Soul but it can be used of anything.
