Great Pads

My problem was to play finger very precisely supplements driving rhythms DHS Sonic Core and sounds of madness, and save them in DAW, so I wanted very reactive pads, instant. I play the djembe and darbuka, so it has to follow. Already have several DAW controller, the knobs and sliders other dedicated I was not interested.

The LPD8 fulfill all these conditions, his pads respond excellently, very fast, accurate on the velocity and firepower.

For € 38 and 1 year warranty, what can one want more? The construction is solid and I broke out like crazy. This is an excellent complement when did want to play a machine without breaking the bank.

For less, changes in banks are zero,...…

For less, changes in banks are zero, completely ornate, at least 4-5 seconds manipulation is unusable on the same track, so you must tell the DAW that cares. But if you work like me in successive recording layers, it does not matter.

Used for about 1 month
I have tried many models of midi controllers (DJ \ Production)

But ultra-ultra simple to use set
Ultra mobile

EVERY-series more encoders pads has its own MIDI channel

AKAI first as controller (MPC 2000XL) I am excited to finish a qualitée of materials through the use of price and integration with various apps (perfect with live 8 for me very well for managing traktor decks remixes )

How long have you use it?
2 years

Have you tried many other models before buying it?
No

What is the particular feature you like best and least?
More:
- It has assignable knob and pad 4 times (8x4 + 8x4 pad knobs)
- It is easily recognizable as the daw
- It is lightweight and fits easily in a bag
- The pads are nice, backlit, good response

Less:
- No quick passage through a single button on a preset (prog) to another (you must enter a combination of three buttons to access another program assigned)
- No separation knob / pad for the assignment, ie when a program passes to the other, all the buttons (+ pad knob) change registry.

- Knob is not endless (ok for the price!)

How would you rate the quality / price?
A little expensive in my opinion ....

With experience, you do again this choice?
With a little more money, combined Korg nano 1 (16 pad and 9 fader two separate controllers) is more convenient and allows greater ease of handling.
But he gave me quite a lot of services for small compositions trip!
So I keep it and I'm glad! ;-)
