User questions & answers

Question:	How well does it work with pro tools
Answer:	The screen let's you warp, trim, and edit clips on the fly without having to look at your computer screen. It's got a color display compared to the old orange led screen that looked like it came out of the early 90s. I've had a push 1 for about 5 years now and love it. Still works like it did day one and I can't justify upgrading to the 2 yet. If you're just curious, go on ebay and get a used push 1 for a couple hundred bucks unless you're going to be mainly using it to slice beats, then it might be worth it.
Question:	Does this need a driver installed to work, or does it use native class compliant USB
Answer:	No this won't actually record anything. I.e. There are no inputs located on the controller. Abelton is more for after you record you can loop and sequence etc.
Question:	anyone know if this will work with Fruity loops and cubase
Answer:	Straight into the computer through a usb type B port. It has external power only to make it brighter, which I have going on at all times. It's just a controller to use for ableton, so all you'll need is Ableton 9.5
Question:	Will this work with studio one
Answer:	Hey there, Thank you for the question. The product is the same, Push 2. The difference is the seller. One is one of our official Amazon re-sellers, Pitbull Audio, the other is Amazon themselves. Hope this helps! If you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to our Support Team at https://www.ableton.com/en/help/ or give us a call M-F 3am-1pm PST @ (323) 924-3808 Cheers, Chris, Ableton Support

User questions & answers

Question:	Integration with the two big professional daws...abelton and pro tools
Answer:	It includes Ableton Live (not lite) but not free it's a $50 discount, but despise that the free software package is amazing. Bluetooth drivers for Mac, Windows and iOS Propellerhead Reason Lite, KORG Gadget (Mac and iOS only),KORG Collection - M1 Le ,UVI Digital Synsations , AAS Ultra Analog Session, AAS Strum Acoustic Session, AAS Lounge Lizard Session, Melodics 40 free lesson, Skoove free 1 month trial of Skoove Premium, KORG Module (iOS)
Question:	Is there a preset for Sonar
Answer:	Yes I havec the nanoKontrol Studio and I use it with Reaper 5 and now Reaper 6, my DAW of choice. If you run into issues, look at this page as sometimes a KORG product will appear not to work but that is because it must be assigned by Windows as a midi port between 0 and 9. https://support.korguser.net/hc/en-us/articles/115004269166-Windows-is-unable-to-recognize-a-USB-MIDI-device-
Question:	Could this be used in any DAW, truly? Aside from the mentioned: Cubase, Logic, and Reason? are the controls, buttons, etc, easily assignable
Answer:	There's only one USB port on the unit so you couldn't physically connect two or more together (i.e., there no IN/OUT or MIDI ports). I guess it might be possible via bluetooth in the DAW, but the quick start guide doesn't give any indication of how to do it. You can use the scene buttons to switch between groups of 8 channels. But I realize that's not the same as have 16 or 24 channels at your finger tips. Good luck.
Question:	I like a more flat curved fader rather than the upright pointy type. Are the fader nobs easy enough to pull off and change out
Answer:	Hi, yes it works without any additional installation of any software. You will need to pair it when you turn it on, and depending on what else you have paired already may require you do it each time. If you can use it with a device that you don't already have Bluetooth pairing on that would be best. Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thank you

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it come with the software
Answer:	Not on the scale but on the app
Question:	is there a output to plug headphone in and listen to the next song without others hearing it
Answer:	2.4 GHz is standard these days. I'm not sure if the scale will work with 5 GHz. If you have both enabled then the scale will pick whatever frequency it supports. 2.4 GHz will give you better range than 5 GHz.
Question:	Does it work with serato
Answer:	If you set it up for wifi then it will sync with Withing's servers automatically and the app will query the server to show your stats. If you set it up for bluetooth then you have to make sure bluetooth is ON for it to sync with the app.
Question:	Can this controller be used without the led light on the back? or do they stay on automatically if it is plugged in
Answer:	It’s white, and it’s very clear to read. I where glasses and I can see it without them on, which is an issue of mine.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does the 8x8 grid of soft buttons send note on and note off for each press? Is it a fixed velocity, or no velicity at all
Answer:	Hello Blevok.The answer is NO. Only you can play with "ON" and "OFF".I saw this information with the program MIDI-OX (Midi-ox is free software to monitoring the input and output commands from the midi device that you are using). And the info is next:90 00 7F 1 C -1 Note ON, where 90 is ON, 00 Note C -1 (fundamental C less an Octave. the button (rectangle) at lower and left), 7F some information, 1 is the Channel 1 (where i was connected).80 00 7F 1 C -1 Note OFF, where 80 is OFF, 00 is the Note C -1 (fundamental C less an Octave. the button (rectangle) at lower and left 7C), 1 is the Channel 1Sample:With a VST drum, in this case the snare. You can play the snare associate a button. But only when you press the button the vst responds with the maximum volume of the snare.Slow or fast is the same response of the snare, maximum volume of the snare.You can't fixed the velocity because the firmware of this device doesn't provide this function.I hope that this answer help you.
Question:	Can you use it with Logic Pro x
Answer:	Hi Jose,AKAI support here! You will be able to use this with Logic Pro X with no issues. The APC Key 25 maps great with Ableton out of the box, but it still sends general MIDI messages that any other DAW uses. If you have any other questions, please feel free to email me directly at [email protected].
Question:	Does it work with djuced
Answer:	Yeah it does. It works with most daws but its not the best for perfomance its primarily suited for composition
Question:	Do i have to buy ableton live to make music or does it come with a version of ableton that isnt a trial version
Answer:	Don’t listen to that person that said Ableton isn’t for production. That’s exactly what Ableton is for. You’ll still have to use a full version of Ableton Lite, standard or Suite to get access to all the features you need.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will the launch control xl work with reason running on a mac
Answer:	I believe they mean you can send 1-6 commands with a single button click. I don't believe you can send one command with a click, then send a second, different command, with the next click of the same button. But there's always the possibility that you could send a certain MIDI CC command that is interpreted by your DAW in different ways, depending on the DAW's tools and/or scripting.
Question:	Can this be used to program sequences in Logic Pro x
Answer:	Hi, it connects via USB, you can see the connection in the 2nd picture if you roll over it and use the magnify option. Let us know if you have any other questions, thank you
Question:	Will the launch control xl work with reason running on a mac
Answer:	It works very well with Ableton Live. You can change from transport controls to standard CC or Note messages. Each foot switch feels great
Question:	Will i be able to assign colors if i`m using fl studio? thanks
Answer:	Ableton actually recognizes this controller in the MiDI setup menu. The only drawback is that you need to manually set it up in Ableton each time you create a new playlist or set. I have used the Nektar “song” pedals with assigned MIDI notes to move between locators in my Ableton sets. The DAW control interface must be manually setup for play, stop, rewind, fast forward, etc. it’s a bit annoying, but once it’s set, it works perfectly. Check out the you tube tutorials for easy setup.

Question:	Will it function wirelessly (especially the transport) without any additional software installs
Answer:	Hey there, MicroLab does work with iOS devices, but you'll need a adaptor to connect it to your device, and find a musical app that works with MIDI. Hope it helps, Best
