APC40 MK2
Re: APC40 MK2
Seems to suffer from the same RGB variance that Push does

APC Mini looks particularly nice to me (especially if you can hack LP95 into it!!)

And its only $100.
Re: APC40 MK2
I like the new APC40 a lot, nice that they moved the transport buttons up top so no more accidental REC presses! Ditto on the knobs finally being above the channels now.

It looks pretty damn fine, I will most definitely be getting my hands on one at the earliest opportunity,

Are them pads velocity sensitive? If they were, I could overlook the 1960s Batmobile "STOP ALL CLIPS" button.
Re: APC40 MK2
Ummm I just bought my apc40 less than a month ago, so yeah.
Ableton 9, Feeltune Rhizome, Focusrite Pro, Mpk249....
Re: APC40 MK2
Nice! Im thinking that the APC Mini combined with the upcoming Livid DS1 will be my new mobile setup.

Re: APC40 MK2
Looks smaller than the first version. I don’t know why they stuck with just the 5 scene layout.
I also don’t know why I think performance demands at least 8 scenes…the metric system of music. As an American I should like a count that doesn’t conform to any kind of logic or consistency.

Re: APC40 MK2
Interesting if they will support a step sequencer in that as well.
Re: APC40 MK2
I find Akai's strategy interesting. They acquire m-audio, these devices have a Novation Mini vibe, they integrate AIR, and they come out with a $200 beat machine to compete with Roland/Korg offerings.
Looking to be a very wild year.

While the APC40 MkII does look really sexy, I think the APC Mini is the real game-changer here. Launchpads were the go-to budget controller seen everywhere, but when you can get the same thing with faders for $60 less?
I foresee the Mini getting sold like crazy. The MkII will too, because it does look impressive, but for the price point, that's a lot of functionality for $100.

Re: APC40 MK2
The MKII does look real nice, and much more sensibly layed out, and I agree the Mini will probably sell like hotcakes.
I'd rather buy a Push than the MKII though. Not that much more expensive, it can do everything the MKII does and a hell of a lot more(although no crossfader).
