    Default APC40 vs MPD32

    Hey guys,

    Just wondering if I should sell my MPD32 and buy an APC40 for use with ableton/traktor?

    Thoughts?

    Much appreciated,

    I think we need a little more information... the MPD and APC aren't used the same way...

    I use my MPD32 as a midifighter+

    It basically is a great tool for production, as well as pinpoint accuracy for triggering cue points. It also has all those great knobs and sliders (of which I have yet to assign in traktor lol)

    It's tricky, because I drool over the APC all the time, but I find that for Traktor, my MPD32 seems like it would be much more useful and straight-forward than the APC, but when I'm doing Ableton sets, I long for the APC
