Take control of your sound with this Akai APC40 MKII Ableton Performance USB controller. This controller extends functionality with numerous music capabilities and ultra-smart workflow processing. The revised knob layout makes each function simple to control. These knobs have an in-line arrangement with each channel to help speed up your process, and the knobs light up for visual feeback.

The RGB clip-launching grid provides seamless control of plugins and virtual instruments while letting you customise audio using 40 super-responsive pads. Get visual feedback with the RGB lighting, which helps you keep tabs of the clip statuses of what you're loading, playing and recording simultaneously. The setup also makes it simple to colour-code clips for improved visual organization. You can also use your computer's shift button and directional arrows to manipulate the 5x8 grid's scope.

This Akai APC40 MKII USB controller arrives pre-mapped, allowing for quick and simple setup right out of the box. Just plug this device into your computer, and it aligns one-to-one with the included Ableton Live software's interface without the need for configuration. You can also rearrange all the controls to suit the precise needs. USB power means you don't need an outlet for this device.
