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!See less20 - instrumentalis formation

It allowed me to assign MIDI commands to my videos and transitions effects. practice very malgrès its small size, light weight, it is easily transported and therefore take up little space.

Practical and transportable
Published on 01/04/13 at 08:08 (This content has been automatically translated from French)I use it since its release, after trying the first Korg Nano pad which fell rapidly in the harbor ...
I also had a MPD 24 MPD 32 and now for some time.
Initially, I used the LPD8 to control functions "annexes" on Serato Scratch Live (cue points, SP6 Sampler, loops, FX ...). So I can say that for Serato, it is almost perfect.
I say almost because the change is a little bank sucks (3 supports), while the Nano had direct selection buttons, if I remember correctly. But hey it comes out easily if you have well affected the pads and buttons to the desired functions (and that is a small strip of paper as anti-dry).
In addition, they hold on the nickel laptop stand, just before my MacBook …Read moreI use it since its release, after trying the first Korg Nano pad which fell rapidly in the harbor ...

In addition, they hold on the nickel laptop stand, just before my MacBook 13 "black without it exceeds the back!
Another configuration: no more mixing and dedicating myself rather to prod ', I intend to use it as a controller now as rhythmic function controller.
Specifically, I wanted to play my Vermona DRM1 as well as the Spark Vintage Drum Machine (I just had with the update of the 64bit V Arturia Collection, by the way).
And then I discovered its potential in terms of programming MIDI Pads can send notes, but also CC or Program Change, and used in stealth mode (momentary) or continuous (toggle).
In short, as an MPD but no screen.
Nothing amazing for a backpacker MIDI, but for me starts to program my controllers since I prefer the hardware (while I was using just before the Learn Mode on my softwares), I find it cool and open for small controller like that.
For others, what is the advantage? Well I can eg keep my MIDI device mapping (eg the DRM1) and place the instruments on the pads that suit me best (kick under the thumb on the bottom right of the LPD8 eg.). I could reprogram the MIDI mapping my Vermona, but I have other controllers already mapped, so it would make me redo everything.
Good must dip 2 sec how data is exchanged between the software and the controller, but after that is very practical and especially nickel.
Side pads, and well I like it, I find sensitive enough for my use (perhaps even more than the MPD 32 but less "soft"), perfectly adequate size and the backlight can always know where you are (practice mode toggle).
Buttons deserved to be a bit larger (in height, not width).
Finally, I since its release, and even though I over used as a trigger and as "MPC" it's still a time and so far it works perfectly, the pads do not fall behind again, to confirmed after intensive use in rhythmic ...See less00 - chnocky
Good little controller
Published on 12/13/12 at 21:58 (This content has been automatically translated from French)I use it for a few months now, I use it with Logic on my laptop with Mac Lion, I have no problem operating the delivered software is effective, it is a good little machine value.
The pads are great and very practical, good sensitivity.
The knobs are a bit small, but it is possible to replace them with larger and even change color!

Ideal controller fast
Published on 04/22/12 at 22:45 (This content has been automatically translated from French)For use Akai much material it's classic for me.
grip 10s clock, install a min.
for use with other software Cubase is kif kif noted that in cubase can do different configuration which can be handy. implementation is fast (for what takes the time to read the manual it helps to understand the subtleties of its implementation in a DAW control surface).
Assigned to the knobs your can for example volumes on all eight channels x 4 or eq settings on your notes or changes to an instrument or whatever you want to control an external instrument even.
The Q / P is very well just be careful with the USB connection, which seems fragile.00 - GIAUBP
He makes his job
Published on 03/08/12 at 03:19 (This content has been automatically translated from French)I use it for a month
No, I have not tried other models before buying.
Pros: It looks solid ..
The backlit 8 pads and sensitive velocity are of good quality
-The: The 'knobs' are pretty low though you get used
The price / quality ratio is good, has less than 50 euros new, it allows me a lot of things with traktor (x1 but unless it is 200 euros)
If I had a small budget to control some samples and effects in traktor, yes I would do this choice ..10 - pololemineur

the LPD8 would come in addition to a keyboard M-Audio, which suddenly left him at home, no need of me lugging around my 49 keys for live. This little thing is really powerful, and downright change my way of preparing a set
The price is unbeatable value, with opposite korg and nanos that we released a series of dung in plastic worthy of playmobil toy's'rus.
I would do without hesitation that choice and I will even buy a second
to conclude:
Product very well designed despite the fragile connections and some missing options. perfect for all applications, the software for configuring a more or less what we want.See less00 - didicool91
Overall satisfied

What is so special that you like best?
- Simple, 4 programs of 8 pads and 8 knobs, that's 64 functions assignable to midi and the assignment is very easy (less than an hour for all assigned under virtual DJ).
The least?
- It's too bad there have not a download code for at least a small software drum as with NANOPAD. The pads are not super sensitive, it must be firm.
