this device is rad.

one thing - when i use device controls on my APC40 bass drum volume and tom 1 volume are reversed. i.e. device control 1 controls tom 1 and device control 2 controls bass drum.

also, can someone write extra patch for MFL that makes this work with the APC40 so that i can ...

Hello out there,

previously, if i used my APC40 and my APC20 at once, they banked together. the two color boxes (in my case yellow and red) were stuck horizontally together, and they banked together.

I totally do want arbitrary control so i can stack them vertically and also move one around ...

thanks, livecut is a good find. i already have many 'auto-glitch' plugins, but this one is very helpful. There are now so many ways to get these effects; livecut, effectrix, supa trigga, beat repeat, MFL: buffer shuffler, lucifer, artillery, buffer override > i guess it's just a matter of picking ...

Perhaps I should re-phrase. If I set a clip as gate, can the act of letting go ( note off ) serve as a signal to start a follow action

Hello,

i need advise on follow actions for cutting up breaks in live's session view.

all my drum clips are on one track in a stack.

i have a vanilla (unchanged 2-bar) breakbeat in clipslot one, and then I put a bunch of permutations of that break
below it. some will be short loops of the kick ...

I have a problem:

Open new set, drop some devices/instruments in use the Device navigation cursor keys to move between devices and control them, all is fine.

Open a saved set, moving between devices works HOWEVER, I still only control (and see feedback) for the first device in the track.

Any ...

Holding down play and rec while powering up doesn't reinitialize the APC40 like it may for MPCs or some Alesis products, so don't use this as a troubleshooting step.

If you somehow you do start up the power while holding play and record buttons by accident - do not press the master button. Just ...

all of the hardware encoders are endless encoders

they way live handles them may be a different story (MIDI 1-128)- but the hardware is an endless encoder

after the update to 8.04 the APC40 always changes the "Track Selection" to the Master after starting a scene with "Scene Launch"

anyone an idea how to change that to the behaviour of the older 8.02 version, where the track selection stays the same after launching a scene?

i normaly navigate ...

this may help some people having trouble with the APC40 device not showing up.

If you have or have ever had a logitech or labtech web cam you may have an extra file associated with USB AUDIO CODEC.

disconnect all other USB devices -

go to device manager,

sounds, video and game controllers ...

did you uncheck the select on launch button in preferences? you would want it checked on.

you can use 2 apc40s as apc40s

you can use up to 6 apc40s at once

not sure about 1 apc40 as normal working apc40 alongside an apc40 rigged as a monome

i don't think it would be an issue but i havn't tried it.

confirmed, this is fixed in 8.0.4.

awesome!

is a this behavior going to work like this in 7, and/ or 7 APC edition w/ a future update as well, or will those users need to upgrade to 8?

I recommend that you contact akai tech support.

apc40 is plug in play, it uses USB Audio CODEC which is built into WIndows + Mac OS X. It is a driver that should be present and operational on your computer.

Every ...

sorry to be minimal - i agree with you that select on launch isn't working by default with the APC40.

but you described this thread as 'make the apc show the track that is playing.' which is a fine way to word it, i was just meaning that this could thread could also be called - make select on ...
