so i just bought one of these the other day. its a piano with 8 beat pads. ive been trying to set it up through studio one artist for a couple days and have had 0 luck. Ive added the instrument and everytime i play a key the sound bar goes up. i record with it and it even shows what keys I'm pressing but i cant hear it.

I just ordered the http://www.akaipro…"]eie pro[/]="http://www.akaipro…"]eie pro[/]. It seems like a very good unit especially for the cost. Sadly I have to wait about 2 weeks to get it because it is back ordered.

What are your favorite Akai studio monitors?

Just wondering if anyone has, or wants to share their opinions on the new Akai APC40 / Ableton Live controller?

Looks very cool.

IMHO, Ableton Live is KILLER for composing and organizing thoughts. The APC40 really takes it another step.

Enjoy these clips.

I was planning on getting an m audio axiom midi controller, but at guitar center (I know not the most reputable source, hence why I'm asking) an employee recommened the akai mpk controller b/c he said the sliders and so force weren't always assigned correctly with some recording softwares (I run Sonar on a PC w/ vista).

hi
please help me.
how can i syncronize Cubase and akai s1000
sampler in the way that Cubase was master and
akai s1000 was slave?
(i have m audio delta 24 96 card)

can you explain what i should do, step by step?

thanks

Greetings,
I am new to the forums and new to the AKAI DPS16...

The user manual for our recorder has MIXDOWN to DAT or DISC information but is inadequate for mixing down to burn to CD...

I Have Sonar7 and the Akai MPK49. I need help setting this thing up. This is my first real Midi controller and its putting a big cramp in my music making. PLEASE HELP!

I'm upgrading my studio this year. Finally its time to put my old MPC60 to rest, LCD screen and pads are worn out.

I started out using Roger Linn's LM 1 back in the 80's, them moved to Akai's MPC60. Love it to death.
Their new beast, the MPC5000 looks awesome. Has anyone used this yet? Has anyone seen it in production or at show?

Here is a fix if you are having problems getting Windows to recognize your MPK49 (copy and pasted link from my review over @ Studio-Central Forums to follow):
