Akai Professional LPD8 USB MIDI Pad Controller with 8 MPC Drum Pads and 8 Assignable Knobs with Music Production Software for Mac/Win PC, Black

Akai Professional LPD8 USB MIDI Pad Controller with 8 MPC Drum Pads and 8 Assignable Knobs with Music Production Software for Mac/Win PC, Black

Q: does this work with garageband? for mac

Yes. If the software supports midi it will support this device. But I suggest just saving up a little more for an mpk25 or one of the other keyboard/drum pad combos. Also I was dissatisfied with the sensitivity of the pads themselves. Ended up reselling mine on craigslist within 2 months of buying it.

Q: Can it be used wired instead of wireless

AKAI support here! The LPD8 is wired only. If you're referring to the newer model, LPD8 Wireless, it can be used via Bluetooth or USB connection. If you have any other questions, please feel free to email me directly at mvieira@inmusicbrands.com.

Q: Can this be used with serato stems?

Hi, Akai Pro support here! You can create a manual mapping for the LPD8 within Serato Stems by following the instructions in this support article: support.serato.com/hc/en-us/articles/5732598890127

Q: Will this work for sure with a chromebook laptop (acer)? akai support (2017) says it may.

AKAI support here! Technically, because the included software won't work on a Chromebook due to the OS, we can't guarantee your full purchase will work. The LPD8 should connect just fine since it doesn't require drivers. As long as you find another program that works on Chrome OS and supports the LPD8, you should be fine. If you have any other questions, please feel free to call or email us using the contact information on akaipro.com/support.
