TheoriginalMPC60wasafirstresultofalliancebetweenRogerLinnandAkaitodesignproductssimilartothoseofLinnElectronics.[1]Hedeveloped
thefunctionaldesign,includingthepanellayoutandsoftware/hardwarespecifications.Hethencreatedthesoftwarewithateamofengineers.The

(cocreatoroftheirfamousVCS3alongwithPeterZinovieff[3]),andthenworkedforeffectsmanufacturersElectroHarmonix.
ShortlyaftertheMPC60'srelease,theMPC60IIwasdesigned.Releasedin1991,theMPC60IIofferedmostofthesamefeaturesastheMPC60,with
