Could you build this?

No Developing native VST plugins for standalone embedded Linux hardware like Akai MPC OS requires reverse-engineering proprietary firmware, cross-compiling for embedded ARM architectures, low-level DSP programming, and custom hardware GUI skinning.

What it would actually take: To build this, one would need a C++ audio DSP stack (such as JUCE or DPF) cross-compiled for the specific ARM-based Linux toolchain used in Akai standalone hardware. The hard parts include reverse-engineering the undisclosed MPC OS plugin host environment, hacking or hooking internal display/input event routines, and guaranteeing real-time deterministic audio buffer constraints under embedded hardware limitations.
