Sequencer Controller
£399
Hype: The best controller we've ever used, period.
Gripe: No looping controls.
Blurb: If you use Ableton Live 8 in a live environment, you need an APC40 controller.
£475
Hype: It's fun, useful and incredibly versatile.
Gripe: Grooveboxes aren't for everybody.
Blurb: Only those completely allergic to the MPC concept will be able to resist.
£299 each
Hype: Fantastic looking multi-functional USB midi controllers that work like a dream due to Automap 3.
Gripe: Zero with no keyboard costs the same price as the SL25 with a keyboard.
Blurb: Combined, this is powerful control package. Individually, still great controllers.
£299
Hype: Semi weighted keys for playing expression and dynamics and automatic Midi mapping.
Gripe: Its good looks will take a battering on the road.
Blurb: Well thought-out controller that offers plenty of nice touches to keep it ahead of the opposition.
£599
Hype: Six channels allows DJs to be more creative in the mix.
Gripe: It won't fit into a laptop bag.
Blurb: A well-built Midi controller that injects fun into DJing with Ableton Live.
