Akai APC 80 - DIY Controller by Controlled Demolition Review Test Testbericht

[Cityj0hn]

OMFG ! 0_o!!!

[edgarinsky]

A lot of pads, faders and knobs and he only used 3 knobs an 3 pads? Camon and a third APC for effects? Whats the idea to have such a big midi controller?

[ghanz135]

On to the APM 100 (APC 80 + MPD)

[delamartv]

@ghanz135 Good idea!

[ghanz135]

@delamartv :) He seems to use it quite prominently :)

And thank you for sharing this great idea ;)

@ghanz135 Thank you for your kind words...

[delamartv]

40 Clips + 40 Clips = 80 that's it :D

[MusicKicksYourBack]

Is'n it a apc 60? (apc 40 and apc 20)

[delamartv]

@MusicKicksYourBack It's 40 clips + 40 clips = APC 80

[DjHarrox]

Please explain what you did in this video It would help a lot to be able to learn from it.

Specifically, how you set up the clips (a video about structuring a Dubstep set would be a great help), if you've made these clips yourself or if you're using them from existing songs, how to replicate those cool winding effects and how it's mapped out. I'd appreciate it and I'm sure there are other people out there that would be very grateful too. If anyone else has links similar to this please reply. Thx

[LaserSexMusic]

He honestly literally didn't touch it at all

[Mauvy77]

Yea, he doesn't actually touch the APC 20 side, proving this is ever so slightly over engineered DIY cleverness doing something that's not really necessary!

[delamartv]

@Mauvy77 watchout for his other videos..he does use it, even if not in this video

[bjjman453]

@delamartv wheres the video? I'm gonna give this a go but would like to see him use the unit. Would the combined 40/20 work with Traktor?

[hrtbrkd]

@Mauvy77 Actually if used correctly this would be really useful. The scenario I am looking at is using it to control Traktor and Ableton at the same time on one machine.

[hrtbrkd]

@Mauvy77 Actually if used correctly this would be really useful. The scenario I am looking at is using it to control Traktor and Ableton at the same time on one machine. The apc 20 portion would controll Traktor and the apc40 side would controll ableton vst. As I route traktor audio into ableton then route it to my djm900.

[thephaseshifter]

this reminds me of the super super soaker series.. 50 /100 /200

[Mixikyr]

I for one think it would look nicer if the APC20 was on the other side, symmetry is out nowadays. :p

[novamusiclive]

Yeah did anyone see him use the APC20 side...? Er...no.

[OfficialMikaUSA]

@novamusiclive Yeah, there was like.... no reason to even have APC20 there. Honestly, I think the APC80 is just for looks.

[eArtrash]

@OfficialMikaUSA Yeah, but you probably dont know how to use it. See, if I had that thing - one side would be for drums and the other for synths. Or one side for clips and one side for effect. Dont be ignorant to the possibilities of something, just cause the guy doesnt use it 100%. :/

[OfficialMikaUSA]

@eArtrash There is just no need to connect 2 things that have similar functions. The devices are flexible to be used for anything. The best thing the guy have could've done is buy an APC40 and the Launchpad since if all you really want is more launchpads. I have those devices, and there is seriously no need for the APC20 if the APC40 is present.

[eArtrash]

@OfficialMikaUSA Its better to have something and not need it, than to need it and not have it. More buttons built into one unit is not gonna do any harm. Just cause YO dont have a need for it...doesnt mean everyone is the same. Each to their own!

[040776]

ma che è sta cacata? na placca di metallo x sentirti gesù cristo...e girà sempre i stessi 2 knobs... la mpiccati!

[DJjontyJerz]

I will pay someone to make me an APC 80

[delamartv]

@DJjontyJerz email ray...

[DJjontyJerz]

I will pay someone to make me this!

[MonoGenerator]

Man hatt zwar echt sehr viel Kontrolle mit den beiden teilen nur sieht das ganze im Endeffekt nicht wie eine Liveperformance aus sondern nur wie eine weitere Dj Performance. Schade...

[delamartv]

@MonoGenerator Die beiden Performance-Arten sind bei moderner Musik ohnehin kaum zu unterscheiden.

[mysteryman123456789]

since the apc20 is now attached with the apc40,do all faders on both units work as 16 channel faders? I assume both usb's are running into the laptop,are all faders and controls able to be used in conjunction with each other on ableton?

[W4RW017]

@mysteryman123456789 as long as they send unique midi-messages.

[djripperrip]

wow all that and you didnt even use the apc 20 side makes no sence.

[LuckParty]

Klar, ich kauf mir 2 Controler für ca. 600 Euro und schneit die dann an beiden Seiten auf :D

[delamartv]

@LuckParty haha, ein bisschen mut gehört natürlich dazu. aber es lohnt sich kann ich da nur sagen...hast du das diy video dazu gesehen?

[FYICREW]

If I send you the two units and pay you will you make this for me?

[mONoBKT]

your music is shit

[xodmaster]

good to see but nothing more, nerds



[IcarusTuga7]

genius

[djcoletrain]

This device is amazing, get akai to put it into production

[segafr33k]

you should send this to the channel of akai professional. Im sure they will like it and think about "attachable" products in the future :)

[delamartv]

@segafr33k this video was actually shot on the akai booth...they already know about this mod :)

[dirtycutmaster]

GOT IT :D

[dirtycutmaster]

GOT IT :D!

[brucekx]

I'm going to do this mod. My question is, how do you go about adjust send levels with the tracks on the apc20?

[skaterblo]

This is amazing.

[bigbolo73]

[PaDMusix]

WOW

ich war mal auf siene Homepage, und so ein Mix video gesehen.

wie heisst die genres die er mixt ? das ist doch dubstep, oder ?..

der is wirklich gut ! hat der auch einen uTube channel?..

Grüße, Pa-D.

[delamartv]

@PaDMusix Ehrlich gesagt bin ich da etwas überfragt, was den Musikstil angeht. Auf jeden Fall hat er es schon drauf =)

[SAButterbrot]

@delamartv klingt nach zu schnell abgespieltem dubstep lol

[traenq]

@delamartv: ich bin auch nicht ganz aufm laufenden mit den ganzen genreschubladen (eigentlich kenne ich nur drei: "rockt", "entspannt" und "spiel ich nicht"), aber ich glaube, das nennt sich drumstep. 174 bpm, geht super in einem set mit drum'n bass .)

danke für dieses video!

[delamartv]

@traenq hrhr, spiel ich nicht ist ja wohl hammer :D

[Henne707]

@PaDMusix er benutzt drum and bass und dubstep und is regelmäßig in lübeck mitlerweile und in hamburg auch!!sehr geiler dj.....gestern erst live erlebt^^

[PaDMusix]

@Henne707
