I am definitely picking both up! Love it! Budget price products with distinct features is a plus!
wow wish i knew of you sooner, i used to make music over 20 years ago and just got back into it at 47, always loved dance music and raves ect and still do, ive just got both of these and amazing kit for getting me back into it, i ableton live 11 so enjoying it. my question is this is there a full on manual with all these different settings and how to. only got the small manual thats not fully explainable on each thing. going through your tutorials and finding it all good stuff.
My wife just got me the APC Key 25 and I'm over the moon! I had trouble getting my instrument to play on the keyboard, but watching your workflow helped me understand what I'm missing 😊Thanks, subscribed!
For performance I would think you would want to control effects, I'd put 2 touch pads with X Y control where all those giant launch buttons are and shrink those launch buttons way down.
I don't think I've seen a controller that I don't want.

Thank you Taetro, happy new year to you. and your family. I really enjoy your tutorials. Thanks again.
Great live stream, great logic in companies asking what do producers want, and how do they work. We now also in a slightly higher bracket the apc64 and possibly launchpad pro 4 at sometime when. A big thanks for this video Taetro!
Hello, I bought it (mk2), but it looks impossible to map manually the knobs. Do you know why? Thanks!
16:14 start of video
Maestro, it is exceptional for Session View!
thank for u saying that about pan mode. i thought i was crazy with EVERY controller
I've had the APC mini on backorder since June 24th from sweetwater. They have been out of stock everywhere for soooo long. The wait is killing me. Thanks for the video. I'm pretty excited for this. I have some plans to use it to control discord on my PC as well as ableton. Can't wait to see what's possible with discord

@@David.est1998 They are also on preorder at Guitar Center. APC mini is sold out everywhere for the last 6 months. I have been looking off and on since I preordered back in June at many different sites to try and find some in stock.

Have ordered the APC mini mk2 and its waiting for me at work, (trucker). What sold me was the scale mode similar to Push and Force. I'm still working on learning music theory, but I'm nowhere near the point of being able automatically adjust different keys.
Thanks so much. Is there any way to tap tempo?
Roland MC 505 has a fader pan mode as well, guess not much has happened since 1998 😁
the APC25 seems really value for money!
Those pads would be super nice for step sequencing, do you think someone will make a Max device or something? :)
I ordered the APC Key 25 because I have the Akai MPK Mini Mk3 and I just want more piano keys so I can play a fuller piano with both hands plus have more pads and features to launch all the clips and record which is freaking badass. So basically for $200 I have clip launcher, drum pad, knobs galore, transport controls and a 50 key piano with the same size keys (this was important to me) plus whatever other things I haven't learned to do yet. It has not arrived yet but my setup is either to put them side by side like a piano or one on top of the other with a little riser on the desk so it feels like a 'The Doors' style two handed top and bottom Synth playing vibearino...

Everything fine and dandy until there is a malfunction with a month old equipment and they keep closing your Requests in the system and giving you the runaround. Cool looking devices but definitely take your money elsewhere. BEWARE! I am talking about the APC Key 25. Yep. Never buying from them again.

Update: Now that I reported them to the BBB they did reach out to me. I'm not eligible for return because it has to include the original box and manuals. I ordered in February. Reported malfuncion in March and it's been two months since so what hoarder keeps all that when everything is online? It's just a way to always pass the buck. Thanks Akai. Now at least I'm able to focus on other brands.
maybe a trial using both could be interesting, bless!
Do u think that the midi mix will be next for a upgrade to a mk2?
Yes I do not need all pans at once lol. Also I wish akai would make a a little box of 16 endless encoders with three or four banks. The dj tech tools midi fighter twisters seem cool but are overkill and too expensive for what I want.
Taetro. This is fab news! So hype!!! I will buy them. How about the Akai APC 40 Mk 3?
Oh nice would AKAI APC KEY 25 MK2 this work well for guitarist or better the Akai apc mini without keyboard 🎹 or can I combine both with a Akai MPC one ?
59:50 I have the same problem with APC Key 25 MK 2. I am able to midi map key notes to everything but not fader knobs. Is there any news maybe?
I can't get the midi learn to work with the knobs. anyone else?
Do you think they would be coming out with APC 40 MK3? And how wise it is to invest in APC 40 MK2 in 2023?

Same question! I suppose that there will not be a huge difference between apc40 mk2 & mk3 anyway...
Not sold on this No pitchbend Velocity Sustain. Missing a lot But nice controller

i just got the old version 1 week before this came out should i return for this one?
Cool, BUT!!! THE APC MINI MK2 IS NOT SUPPORTED ON MAC OS VENTURA (m1 chip, etc..) 😑Should I just get a used Novation launchpad X? --- I always get excited with akai but at the end 👎
Stream starts 3:21 🤘
They should all be coming out with basic cheap built in sounds by now!
