I used it some time as I quickly was limited.
Colored pads are very convenient.
I would not recommend this controller is now obsolete. It is better to be equivalent to a lauchpad or above with an APC40.

It's been a year since I use is my first controller so I have no basis for comparison.

I note all the same after a year of use, one of the faders no longer transmits the signal correctly afternoon of blow back in service, kick out of luck.

I still go to the APC 40 for comfort.

I also used via mappings in traktor available on the net to play a little history ... …

I received a week ago, I thought to intro version of ableton but because it is bundled with the APC20 for a fairly reasonable price finally, I cracked!
The product is (as often with Akai) very well done and gives a real feeling of solidity with thick rubber sidewall.
The APC20 is plug and play, both on mac and pc controllers are well thought out, there is also a mode "note" very valuable that can be used as a traditional keyboard.
So I might even sell my midi keyboard, but we must admit that we are a little lost because of the lack of reference to play (not black, obviously), more the APC20 does not support the velocity.
