Product description Akai APC 64
The Akai APC 64 sets new standards in the operation and performance of Ableton Live controllers, marking the future of hardware control for this popular Digital Audio Workstation (DAW). With its 64 RGB-sensitive pads that support Poly Aftertouch, as well as eight fully assignable touch strips, this device offers unprecedented control over your music production and live performances.
At the center of the user interface is an 8x8 pad matrix that works perfectly in dimly lit studios and on brightly lit stages. These pads are designed not only for launching clips but also for providing various expression possibilities. The touch strips allow you to fine-tune volume, effects, and other parameters such as vibrato or filter cutoff directly in the mix without interrupting your creative flow. A color display continuously provides feedback on the status of your controls and levels.
The powerful production and performance features of the APC 64 are particularly noteworthy. The device includes a built-in step sequencer and special modes for notes and chords, turning the pad matrix into an expressive musical palette. Experiment with the Probability or Mutate functions when seeking inspiration and capture your results instantly in the internal 8-track 32-step sequencer.
The APC 64 is not only an extension for your DAW but can also be used as a standalone sequencer and controller for external MIDI and CV hardware. Simply power it via USB, and you can control your favorite synthesizers, drum machines, and other devices. The device also allows for customization through the included APC Project Editor Software to save and quickly recall your own layouts.
The package is complemented by a wide range of plug-in instruments and effects. In addition to the included Ableton Live Lite version, you'll receive a selection of Air Instruments and Sonivox VST/AU plugins ranging from classic keyboards and synthesizers to reverbs and vintage effects. Additionally, 1 GB of loops and drum samples from Sampletools by CR2 Records are included.
With the Akai APC 64, you get a comprehensive tool that redefines the boundaries of music production and live performance.
