In this video, I take an in-depth look at Akai APC 64 - a MIDI controller for Ableton Live and a step sequencer. The APC64 one of the top Ableton Live controllers on the market today and can be used to trigger clips, scenes, control Ableton devices, and create step sequences for Ableton Live or a hardware synth. In this video I also compare the Akai APC 64 to the Novation Launchpad Pro and the Ableton Push 3 to help you decide if it’s right for you.

@@SanjayCHave you used Logic Pro X for iPad Pro yet. The screen is better for finger drumming than any of the pad controllers. When you use Logic on iPad there's a view for the whole screen divided into the 16+ pads, and you can finger drum on the screen without a controller. For Congas for example, Logic Pro has the three conga drums and an open, open slap, closed slap, muffled slap, heel, bass, and finger tip for each of the three drums. There's even a ghost tap. You can also play chords on the touch screen where it has all the chords in a key. It's unreal. Basically it's better than all of the other controllers. You can do rolls and high hat patterns like 100x easier with the touch screen.

I'm also keyboard player, but I used to play long time ago in accordion with buttons on right side (finished music school on that instrument), so maybe that's why I really like to play on launchpads, because they got similar assumptions, how buttons/pads are organized (repeated notes in next columns for better notes handling)

Sanjay, you forgot to mention it has full device control (i.e. cycling through devices on a track and through parameter banks on a device). You have to confirm that specifically these days because many controllers "designed for Live" don't actually do that and it's a major workflow feature. Was excited when I saw this video pop up in my recs! Hope we get more new gear as the holidays approach. Edit: would love to see you get your hands on the new Montage that just came out also 😊.

Akai basically ripped the sequencer functionality from the Akai Force and directly translated it a controller. The layout is extremely similar (even the transport controls being at the top). As a Force and LP Pro user, I can tell you this will be an upgrade to the LP Pro, which has up until now been my far and away favorite way to sequence the 404. Can’t wait for delivery. (Some of us have to spend money for this stuff).

I got mine today and for me, it feels like it's lacking in some departments. The look is amazing, but the touch strips feel a bit clunky. As it works with zones, it's not a nice continuous feel like you would have on a fader or with a knob. Nevertheless, they do their task. What I do however strongly struggle with is the size of the paths, they are tiny and way too close to each other. They require quite some bit of force to actually work and they cut off while holding notes. I'll give it a try this week, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to return it.

I‘m not a fan of touch strips. I still have a Machine Jam and it‘s so easy to accidentally touch the fader next to the one you actually want to control. Also, if you perform live and your surface is wobbly, a touch strip is very challenging to use. I don‘t like the small screen either. I‘m waiting for Novation to bring a new device (maybe with MPE, screens and/or knobs?). But Push3 is also tempting but not within my budget

Thank you! Great information. I find this very compelling... especially the touch strips and how many parameters can be mapped and controlled. People under estimate the expressiveness of those touch strips, because you can tap to different values and have some really amazing effects as a result. I can also see this as a somewhat viable dj controller for live. No jog wheels, but having the grid plus those strips for fades, EQ and Fx seems great!

I think the APC64 is a (even) more Ableton-friendly version of the Maschine Jam or an enhanced version of the Launchpad Pro. I don't think it can compete with Push, regardless the version. Especially the position of the touch strips is less than ideal, especially when the APC Mini and the Maschine Jam have shown combining faders and a 64 matrix in a way that makes sense can be done. And the position of the little screen if flat out idiotic.

Perhaps it's just me being "Old" or "Old schol", but It's cool to have a ribbon controller on devices, but would really prefere regular faders than these touch strips. Think they are major annoying to work with compared to a modern touch sensitive motor fader found in Digital mixers and daw controllers. Just like anyone that have used an instruments with up/down buttons or touch faders for volume etc. The tactile feel about a fader just is superior in any way to these solutions for both volume and selectable functions like drawbar control and other edit functions dependent on the sound/instrument. And a set of faders is actually much easier to control at the same time than a set of touch strips. There is a very good reason for producers prefering a precission fader, or an organist prefering a real set of click drawbars for controlling a hammond sound. Unfortunately controllers also become serious more expensive if you just wants the best tactile control. The touch strips is a reasonable good way of making a not too expensive device for the low to mid end instead of something that cost an arm and a leg and only few can afford.

I just received my APC 64 and everything is working fine, except for the (internal) Step Sequencer. I'm doing everything exactly as in the tutorials. Select a Step Sequence track, punch in some notes and they light up according to their velocity on the upper pads. But when I press "PLAY" nothing happens. It seems as if the sequencer doesn't actually run. On further investigation I found out, that the Step Sequencer does work as intended, when I put the APC 64 into Standalone mode. However, I then lose the ability to control Ableton Live, e.g. launch clips etc. All of the demos show the Step Sequencer running in conjunction with Ableton Live. However, I cannot get this to work. Any ideas which step I might miss?

@Sanjay do you think when Arturia releases it's flagship midi keyboard it will be able to compete with the the new NI Kontrol midi keyboard?Do you think there will be a BF sale on the new Ni Kontrol ?

I really hope Arturia gives us something that will compete. Not sure about BF yet. I’ll find out and will let you know.

pretty sweet overall but also super lame that you can't control an ableton effect rack, and a send at the same time. Pretty major downgrade from the apc40 mkII in my opinion. Also seems like it would be super easy to accidentally stop clips if you were performing with this. Seems like something thats more for the studio and not live performance. Wish they would make more apc40 mkII's honestly.

You can create a crossfader with one of the touchstrips
