Akai Professional Fire Grid Controller for FL Studio

Comprehensive Hands-on Control for FL Studio

The first dedicated controller made for FL Studio software, the Akai Professional Fire grid controller delivers comprehensive control for production and performance. Akai Professional worked closely with Image Line — makers of FL Studio — to enhance your workflow and optimize your music-making sessions. Featuring a 4 x 16 matrix, Fire makes it easy to navigate the Channel Rack, Browser, Tool Bar, and Playlist menus, allowing you to step away from the mouse and enjoy hands-on control. And with the ability to connect up to four Akai Professional Fire grid controllers to FL Studio, you could even create a physical 8 x 32 matrix right on your desktop or in your live rig. Note: Akai Professional Fire requires a license for FL Studio to operate. Please Contact your Sales Engineer for more information.
The first dedicated controller for FL Studio While FL Studio software works with practically any control surface, there has never been a streamlined, dedicated control solution for it — until the Akai Professional Fire grid controller. Its familiar interface allows you to get a lot done without touching your mouse, including navigating the Channel Rack and other menus, controlling the transport section, creating sequences, and even playing instruments in real time.
Ready to plug and play, with FL Studio If you've been custom-programming your control surfaces for FL Studio, you're in for a treat. Compatible with both PC and Mac versions, the Akai Professional Fire is ready to rock with FL Studio right out of the box. You probably expected that from a dedicated controller, but as far as the FL Studio enthusiasts at Sweetwater are concerned, the Akai Professional Fire is a solution that's been a long time coming.

Akai Professional MPD226 MID Pad DAW Controller

Control HQ for Your Music Rig

Part pad controller, part control surface, and completely ready to rock, Akai Professional's MPD226 lets you set up your music-creation to fit the way you like to work. It starts off with the same 16 MPC pads that have inspired music producers to recommend Akai Professional gear for decades, and it only goes uphill from there. RGB backlighting behind those pads makes it easy to color code your layout, which is especially handy when you're switching between four banks of pad assignments. On the other side of the MPD226, there are four sliders, each with an assignable button and encoder. You can use these to set up track controls, ADSR envelopes, EQs, and much more. Top it off with classic MPC Note Repeat, dedicated transport controls, and a killer software package, and the MPD226 is a creative goldmine. From your studio DAW to your live rig One of the things that sets the MPD226 apart from similar pad controllers is the fact that it offers you hardware MIDI outputs, rather than just MIDI over USB.
