Native Instruments Homage MPC Edition

What L'Homage MPC Edition Is For

L'Homage MPC Edition is designed for beatmaking and modern hip-hop production, with a deliberate lo-fi aesthetic. It helps you transform a simple harmonic grid into a strong atmosphere, thanks to intentionally imperfect timbres, textured attacks, and saturated layers that naturally "stick" in the mix.

Whether you're looking for a cinematic intro, a hazy chorus, or grittier verses, this instrument allows you to change the mood of a track in moments. The presets are designed to be played on pads or keyboard, enabling you to quickly move from idea to a credible sketch without breaking the creative flow.

Main Features

A lo-fi sonic signature, between warmth and saturation

L'Homage MPC Edition emphasizes distorted textures and faded colors reminiscent of worn samples, tired tape, and instruments pushed to their limits. The sounds favor an organic and imperfect character, ideal for productions that breathe and tell a story beyond mere sonic "cleanliness."

Varied instrumental sources to build your chords and hooks

With its 128 sound sources, the palette covers synths, keyboards, guitars, and basses (and other saturated instruments) to work on both chord progressions and melodies and hooks. The goal is simple: to provide you with musical materials ready to inspire, which you can layer, contrast, and evolve from one section to another.

Musical noise to add depth and a true signature

The highlight of this collection is the ability to mix musical sounds with noise samples to immediately create depth and movement. These layers add grain, tension, and a sense of space, very useful to "dirty up" a passage, thicken a chorus, or give coherence to an entire beat. The result: a stronger vibe that helps push the boundaries of overly polished hip-hop.

A workflow designed for speed on MPC

As an MPC Edition instrument, L'Homage is made to integrate naturally into your production environment. You can find a preset, start an idea, then build around it with your drums, basses, and arrangements without getting lost in endless settings. It's an "inspiration first" approach: you pick a color, play, and sculpt your track from an already expressive base.
