Day 165: APC40, then new MPC??

Few bits of kit ever make truly legendary status, but the odd one or two capture the imagination of a music making generation.

One such piece of legendary kit is the MPC series from AKAI, notoriously the MPC60... tho all of the sub versions held massive favour with Hip Hop producers in general. Well there could be a new contender to that throne.

The new APC40 (also from AKAI) has already got forums chatting with its hackable functionality (we nerds love a bit of hackability). Also there is the talk of Monome emulation, which, seeing as the APC weighs in at a measley $400, makes it a very interesting bit of kit indeed.

Check here for some more info on the hackability.
