    Seen the APC40 twice now, why would some of you buy it? Is it mainly for producers playing their music live?

    dunno, with custom mapping anything can work, sure ive used my laptop keyboard with a usb soundcard to play out before... Im looking at buying a xone 4d purely because with traktor i dont think ill ever run out of buttons and ive heard great things about it, like the look of it plus I dont scratch so the jogs dont bother me, if worse came to worst I would buy the small denon sc2000 and toggle that shizz up but doubt id need it, plus it works for D.A.W's with lots of ins and outs and fadders for virtual mixers...would suit my needs perfect

    Don't look at a controller as how it's advertised, but what could you make it do That's the whole deal behind MIDI.

    Because it had an excellent array of controls, it doesn't have jog wheels, it has many pages of knob style led lit encoders, it has excellent build quality, is suitable for controlling 8 channels of audio nicely.

    It's not bus powered though

    This is the map Muzicfreq was referring to. It could use an update but I sold the unit. http://www.traktorbible.com/freaks/m...ew.aspx?id=123

    And here is my X1 map

    The catch is you then pay VAT on top of it, plus possibly customs and handling charges.

    1200 comments with a 99% positive is pretty good I would say, but I don't speak dutch or whatever that is. Make sure it's not an educational version or that it's not a controller only. Legally S4 must be sold as a software hardware combo.
