In this Ableton Live lesson, I will demo how to split 2 or more instruments across your midi controller.  That way you can play one instrument with each hand or switch between sounds quickly.  I use this technique sometimes when playing live with my band to control bass with one hand and pads/synth with the other.  It comes in extremely handy… 

When I first got my APC40, I was amazed by the out of the box functionality.  I had done my research, and knew that it was what I wanted.  It offers a lot of flexibility in the studio and for live performance.

I started experimenting with it, and noticed I couldn’t use a midi translator with it though.  I did discover a website with some free python scripts to expand the out of the box functionality of the APC40 though.  I love these scripts so much.  They give you added features like extra color coded scenes and tempo adjustment by holding the shift button and turning the cue knob.

If you’re interested in making your APC40 even more powerful than it already is, then check this out:
