Is the crossfader replaceable?
Yes it is. Should a replacement be necessary, the crossfader can be easily replaced in the field by removing a small two-screw access panel on the underside of the Akai APC40. Is the Akai APC40 dual voltage (without the need for a transformer) for playing abroad? You can use the same unit for U.S. (110V) and Europe (220V) with different power adapters. If you buy it in the U.S. and go to Europe, you will need the European adapter and vice versa. Can it be bus powered? No, it has too many LEDs (around 380) to be bus powered. The 12V (2.0A pin- positive) power supply is included. Can I use two Akai APC40s at once? Yes, you can use up to six Akai APC40s at the same time. In Ableton Live, a red box around the clips is indicated for the first APC40. A yellow box is indicated for the 2nd APC, and so on. Each will show a different colored ring around the clips. Can I use Ableton Live 5, 6, 7, or 8? If you elect to use a standalone version of Ableton Live, it must be Live 7 with the latest upd
