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.
It is relatively stable, recognized automatically Ableton Live 8.

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.
This is still a great all in one for those who mainly use...…

This is still a great all in one for those who mainly use Ableton Live. The price / quality ratio seems very good.

How long you use it?
_6 Months

For what use?

Check for my software _Utilisé light Freestyler, now my sequences are exploitable and should end in a split second .... a killer!

What is so special that you love the most, least?

_The Most: Button backlit touch very intuitive and enjoyable.

_Moins: No compatibility with other software by Ableton which he dedicated, and duty to the past by maping software for any c redirect rather galley.

Did you tried many other models before buying it?

_non

How would you rate the quality / price?

_Correcte In my case bought secondhand but I would not have invested in nine of view I did not know if he would agree to my use
