Absolutely fantastic product! I am using it with Resolume Arena and my work has become so much easier. Highly recommend for mixing visuals live and triggering effects faster. Perfect and a must have tool for any visual jockey!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Budget Ableton Controller
*by E***L on 3 December 2019*

A great ableton controller. For clip launching, live looping and live electronic improvisations, this controller is going to help you a lot. On top of 64 pads for clip launching, you get mixer controls, sends, returns so this is a sweet little controller which offers so much under 8k. If you are a vj, you can also use this as a vj controller for any VJ application.
