On a related note:
Has anyone/Does anyone have/had an mpk49/88. Would they be a good addition to logic? Or would I be better off saving the $$$ and getting an m-audio controller? |
Thanks for the MPC advice dude.
Ime the Akai controllers are not great with Logic. They are not on the Logic control surfaces list (At least not in 8, dunno about 9) so you don't get full preset functionality like you do using them with say Ableton. You can set them up manually, but it's a bit labourious. There are quite a few useful videos on youtube that take you through step by step. The Mackie/Logic control and the Euphonix MC series offer the best integration with Logic that I have seen for myself, but they ain't cheap.
