Product description

Style Name:APC 40

In 2009, Akai Professional collaborated with the creators of Ableton Live, a powerful music performance and production software environment, and introduced the original Ableton Performance Controller-APC40. The instrument raised the standards of controller design, revolutionised hardware and software integration, and proved to be an essential performance tool for Ableton Live users everywhere. Building upon this original partnership, Akai Professional now introduces reimagined Ableton Live controller-APC40 mkII. APC40 mkII incorporates five years of user feedback into its design. Almost every aspect of the original APC40 has been deliberated, reworked, and improved to provide extended controller functionality, countless musical capabilities, and a smarter workflow within Ableton Live. In addition to its sleek look, veteran APC40 users will immediately notice the enhancements that include an RGB clip-launching grid, reinforced fader design, revised knob layout, and much more.

From the manufacturer

The Power Of Clips

APC40 mkII features a 5×8 RGB clip-launching grid meticulously engineered for dexterous exploration: launch clips, samples and one-shots, and create / perform your song from the ground up using 40 responsive triggers. Radiant RGB lighting provides visual feedback and displays three clip statuses—loaded, playing and recording—so you can intelligently perform without looking at your computer. For a customised experience, colour code your clips with selectable RGB lighting for advanced visual organisation; for expanded control, use the Shift button and directional arrows to manipulate the scope of the 5×8 grid. With APC40 mkII, experiencing limitless creative potential has never been easier.

Total Control

Take command of your production and performance with APC40 mkII. With nine reinforced faders and eight channel control knobs, arranged in-line per channel, APC40 mkII provides a familiar, intuitive layout and a powerful workflow. Eight lit Device Control knobs make it easy to tweak virtual instruments, DAW controls and more, providing critical visual feedback of each parameter. In addition, the Sends button enables users to cycle through all eight send buses right from the APC40 mkII – plus the A/B crossfader has been reimagined for continual assignment without ever having to touch the mouse.

Seamless Integration

APC40 mkII comes pre-mapped to Live (version 9.1.3 or later) for instant performance and production right out of the box. When APC40 mkII is plugged into your computer, its hardware controls correspond 1-to-1 with Ableton Live’s interface—no additional configuring is required.

In addition, all of APC40 mkII’s controls can be re-assigned on the fly for customised setups that change with your performance or production style.

Plug and Play

APC40 mkII is also powered over USB and supports plug-and-play connectivity, for seamless integration from the studio to the stage.

Whether you are an electronic music artist and Live is your canvas, a DJ using Live for performance and real-time mixing, or a more traditional musician using Live on stage or in the studio, you will find the APC40 mkII to be the intuitive, powerful instrument that directly links your inspiration with Ableton Live.
