Build Custom Midi Controller Effects Dj Ableton Live

I am taking an Ableton LIve class and the bag is excellent for transporting my 25 key midi controller and laptop in one bag. Have plenty of space for notebook, sustain pedal and headphones...

I'm using this controller in tandem with the NanoKontrol (which has faders), to MIDI map all functions for Ableton Live. It offers plenty of programmable pads and 4 different scenes. The only drawback is its durability on the road (touring) over time...

I use the product to control Ableton Live and Reason and it is spectacular! It lets me have great hands-on control, the keys are amazingly expressive, the drum pads are great, and sliders are awesome too. This is for sure a great MIDI keyboard and easily compares to any MIDI keyboard out there. One con though is that the encoders are a little loose feeling, but it's not bad once you get used to it.

While I'm new to the use of a midi controller, my Son, who is a NYC Music Producer and Nightclub DJ is coaching me on creating music on Garage Band. He as well thinks my Akai Controller is perfect for my particular use.

I use this for Ableton Live, it's miles away from the old nanokontrol... it will receive midi signals, so when you click something with your mouse in a DAW the corresponding button is illuminated or turns off on your nano. Comes ready with mappings for some DAWs (ableton and others) or you can make your own maps. WIth the preloaded ableton map you can solo, mute, rec, pan, fade, and you can cycle between which tracks you control... control first 8 tracks then hit next track button and control the next 8. No motorized faders but you cant expect that. and the buttons dont stick anymore.

Currently doing live DJ sets every Friday with this controller over the internet. All of the controls compare favorably to the various professional gear I've used over the years. Configuration is easy with the included software. Overall very happy.

I am throughly please with this keyboard midi controller. The action is so much like a regular piano. The build is a good quality, and while it doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles (which can sometimes get in the way), it performs flawlessly. This keyboard is worth twice the price. If you’re thinking of buying it, do it.

I use to to plug my DJ controller to my laptop.

Super fun DJ controller that works out of the box. Small enough to be portable but big enough, and build quality makes it still a powerful tool. Zero setup required with most popular DJ apps - LOVE IT.

Great for programming all sorts of performance controls for Ableton Live.
