DrewHamlett MPC Keygroup Creator is a standalone Windows utility that turns one-shot samples, including 808 sounds, into keygroups for the Akai MPC platform. It is designed for producers who want to prepare sample-based MPC sounds without building every keygroup manually.

The app supports bulk keygroup creation from individual one-shot samples, making it useful when working through a collection of sounds. Keyword filtering helps you narrow down which samples to use, while note information in sample filenames is used to assign the root note. This is filename-based note identification rather than audio pitch analysis, so clearly named samples matter. The tool also creates previews for the resulting keygroups.

For hobby producers making beats or organizing an MPC sample library, it offers a focused way to handle repetitive preparation tasks. MPC Keygroup Creator runs separately from your DAW: it is not a VST instrument or effect to load inside FL Studio or Ableton Live. Its purpose is to prepare keygroups for MPC use.
