Akai APC40 Ableton Software USB Controller
I will make a bold prediction: the Akai APC40 will change the way electronic music is written and performed. Considering that the Akai MPC1000 is already in use by countless indie-rock/indie-tronic acts (including Passion Pit and Paper Route), the APC40 is a big step forward towards bridging the gap between hardware and software with a responsive, intuitive design.
