AKAI APC 40 Ableton MIDI Controller

Description

General
Akai and Ableton have teamed up and have produced the Akai APC-40 MIDI controller. Akai, the producer of the MPC series of audio samplers and sequencers, has become immensely popular in the world of hip-hop. Akai has designed a fantastic live MIDI controller which is perfectly attuned for staunch Ableton Live users. If you own an Ableton, throw away your mouse and keyboard and buy this APC 40.
The APC 40 is a plug-and-play device that can be connected to your computer via USB. No further drivers are needed. Subsequently, you can assign the APC 40 and link every button, knob and fader to a virtual function in Ableton. This MIDI controller is also compatible with other software.
This Akai APC 40 is different from most MIDI controllers because of its raster of 8 x 5 buttons (left corner), that match the Ableton Lives unique raster sequence analysis software. Various colours represent the support of several on/off states.
If you love making music with Ableton Live but get tired of having to click constantly, the APC 40 is the solution.
