Product Description
Akai APC64 - A New Era of Ableton Live Control
Meet the Akai APC64 Ableton Live Controller — a next-generation performance and production hub built for hands-on creativity. Designed for beat makers, producers, and live performers, the APC64 delivers deep Ableton Live integration with an intuitive layout that keeps you focused on making music, not clicking a mouse. At its core is an expressive 8×8 grid of 64 velocity-sensitive RGB pads with polyphonic aftertouch, perfect for launching clips, playing chords, finger-drumming, and navigating Session View with dynamic visual feedback.
Eight assignable touch strips add a new level of expressive control, letting you shape effects, filters, volume, panning, and more with smooth, responsive gestures. A full-colour display with a push encoder provides clear real-time feedback, while dedicated transport, mute, and solo buttons streamline recording, mixing, and live set control without breaking your creative flow.
Beyond software control, the APC64 stands out with a powerful built-in 32-step, 8-track sequencer. Create patterns without a computer and sequence external synths, drum machines, and modular gear via MIDI and CV/Gate outputs. Creative tools like probability, velocity control, and pattern mutation make it easy to build evolving grooves and dynamic performances.
Ready to go out of the box, the APC64 includes Ableton Live Lite and a bundle of instruments, plugins, and samples, giving you everything needed to start producing immediately. Whether in the studio or on stage, the Akai APC64 is a compact creative command centre built to elevate your Ableton Live workflow.
