Good dj's view is that slab Mimimachin ...

Commenons:

- How long have you use it?

Since its release (before even ... )
I was waiting at a halt!

- What is the particular feature you like best and least?

Assets:
ntgration Live with almost perfect (you can remap if you want) but the original dj's something!
Open a project and see all assign idle is a great time saver and ergonomics.

The quality of manufacture is nikel, and I heard a complaint, but frankly I tried the Controller (the same shovel) and I love the rendering, touch. .. Annes Lumire of the UC33 cheapos of stuff ...

Being able to virtually navigate without a mouse in his live set / project is not bad too

Finally I like everything in this BCAN is easy!

Cons: Some instability of both (but mostly because of old assignment midi ...) therefore remove / delete its old values ​​/ assignment before any thing else: mess!

- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

Ohh yeah! lots! And this one is when even the most advanced Live for the moment (forcment there will be others ...)

- How do you report qualitprix?

Hmmm ... not forcment given for "a simple Controller" but it's so well made that Intgr forget a lot of other surface CONTRL.
Anyway for me the quality is to go.

- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...

Without a single second hsiter!
I Live redcouvre my sets and my projects.
But keep the sprit that a Controller to the east "Live" and not too much for Fast Fashion (though I use it to also ...) then combined with a Keyboard Controller matre good style or Remote MPK sl 25/37: the good you have a full combo.

Another thing: The Live Aka Included is not "mandatory" ... if you have the 8 (see the latest version of 7 days), just put the APC surface 40 of control and hop;)

Anyway I who am an old user of Ableton Live, this machine is just TIP TOP, the physical extension of my software.
