Akai Pad Sensitivity

So I just got a MPD32 and trying to figure out what I need to set the pads to so I dont have to bang them.

It has 3 parameters

Pad sensitivity
1-16

Pad Curve
A-D

Pad Velocity

What would be a good settings to set it to so I can tap them lightly

9C kicks ass, great for programming phat beats, really the only setting you'll ever want or need.

dude, do your own homework.

keep tapping them while changing the sensitivity, they're probably all slightly different anyway.

Yea I messed with teh different settings and it made a little difference. Unfortunately its so new there is not much info out there and the manual is awful it has nothing about it except for the fact its a feature

I'd go back to the store with a shotgun and ask for some answers. maybe that's just me playing too much GTAIV, dunno, the lines between reality and games is blurring.

good luck, I gotta go take out some pimps and monitor a drug deal.

The manual is on the CD that came with the MPD32 as a PDF file.

Man i have a shitload of questions but I try to do some research before I ask for help.

Google is your friend.

use the velocity plug in. set the out low/comp/drive how you like. save as default/preset.
