Akai LPD8 Laptop 8-pad USB Midi Controller

Akai LPD8 Laptop 8-pad USB Midi Controller Review



The LPD8 is based on Akai Professional’s MPC line of iconic music product stations. While the smallest model the MPC500 is quite portable many producers prefer to work with software on their computer and the LPD8 gives their laptop the controls they prefer over a mouse and keyboard. The LPD8 has eight blue light-up pads that are velocity sensitive for programming rhythmic or melodic parts. The pads can also send program-change information to software. The LPD8 also has eight assignable Q-Link knobs to which users can assign virtually any parameters in their software for hands-on control.
