I think that are necessary the forty "clips" in APC40, because this controller add some good workflow when you use Live, it's only press one "clip" on APC40 to record or play it, this is usefull when you're creating something in Live, you don't need to see the display or use the mouse to do it, and you can concentrate more on the creation process. I see this product like an extension of the mouse and keyboard for Live. My english is bad LOL. Peace!

nice sentiment....
akai has to keep up with all of the innovations in tech.
the mpc60 and 3000 are great...but too bad the scsi interface is outdated and unsupported with modern macs.
u basically need an old mac to cut all of your samples unless you really want to futz around with that tiny lcd screen.
you can still sync a mpc and run outputs into ableton channels which is great.
until they can have the power of a mac laptop in a modern mpc I think the akai boxes will lose market share.

Price? It doesn't replace my faderfox because of the lack of a joystick. So x/y effects modulation is not possible from what i see. But good idea.
