Product Highlights

Take complete tactical command of your electronic production and live sets with the flagship Akai Professional APC40 mkII. Built to bridge the gap between studio arrangement and expressive stage performance, this high-performance Ableton Live controller places a massive 5x8 RGB clip-launching matrix, nine physical channel faders, and eight endless rotary device encoders right at your fingertips. Every hardware component maps automatically and natively to Ableton Live's internal matrix, displaying instant color-coded visual feedback directly onto your physical deck. Powered completely over a single USB cable and optimized with an assignable crossfader, the APC40 mkII streamlines your track creation workflow and unleashes deep, fluid performance control without ever touching a mouse.

Product Features

  • Deep, Out-of-the-Box Ableton Integration: Engineered for seamless, direct plug-and-play mapping to Ableton Live, giving music creators absolute hardware command over clips, routing, and arrangements without any manual MIDI mapping required.
  • 5x8 Backlit RGB Clip-Launching Matrix: Loaded with an expanded 40-button clip-launching grid that utilizes full RGB color-coded feedback to reflect the exact state of your Ableton clips—whether they are loaded, playing, or recording.
  • Pro-Grade Channel Fader Architecture: Features nine premium, low-friction channel faders and a heavy-duty master volume fader arranged in an ergonomic, linear layout for smooth, high-precision mixing and rapid parameter tracking.
  • 8 Assigned Device Control Knobs: Outfitted with eight high-resolution, endless rotary encoders with integrated LED rings that automatically map to your selected instrument or effect plugin devices, cutting out desktop monitor screen distractions.
  • A/B Crossfader Assignment Matrix: Equipped with a dedicated, assignable crossfader that can be remapped to any channel or clip lane on the fly, unlocking smooth transitions and professional DJ-style performance filtering.
