Why choose this product

Seamless Ableton Live Integration

This ensures a smooth creative process, allowing you to focus on making music without complex setup. It's pre-mapped for Ableton versions 11, 10, and 9, providing immediate usability for producers familiar with the platform.

Ideal for Producers on the Go

This controller is perfect for musicians who need a portable yet powerful setup. Its compact size fits easily into a laptop bag, making it ideal for creating music anywhere inspiration strikes. While it offers robust control, users with extensive track counts in large projects might find dedicated navigation buttons on larger controllers more efficient.

How to use

  • Connect to Your Computer — Plug the included USB cable into the APC Key 25 MK2 and then into a USB port on your Mac or PC. The controller is USB bus-powered, so no external adapter is needed.
  • Install Bundled Software — Locate the software download card included in the package. Visit the provided URL to download and install Ableton Live Lite and the virtual instruments (Hybrid 3, Mini Grand, Velvet) onto your computer.
  • Configure in Your DAW — Open Ableton Live Lite. Go to Preferences > MIDI and ensure the APC Key 25 MK2 is enabled as an input device. The controller is pre-mapped for Ableton, so you can immediately start launching clips and playing instruments.
  • Start Creating Music — Use the 25 velocity-sensitive keys to play melodies and chords, trigger drum sounds with the 40 RGB pads, and control effects or parameters with the 8 assignable knobs. Utilize the transport controls for recording and playback.
