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.
