Whether you’re in the studio or performing live, the Fire’s MPC-style 16-pad layout comes packed with the features and functions you need (including full integration with FPC and SliceX) to mix mouse-free. Effortlessly tweak the volume, filter controls according to each channel, and automate recording. These knobs give you precision control over channels, mixer, and user-assignable functions.

Personalize your workflow with 4 banks of 4 touch-capacitive knobs for viewing and adjusting parameters. Using the Note button, you can convert the RGB pads to a MIDI keyboard to access three octaves of note data or choose Performance Mode to launch MIDI clips and audio directly from the pads.

Velocity-sensitive and ideal for drumming, these pads are specifically designed to interact with FL Studio’s step sequencer. Intuitive, user-friendly layout and direct hardware control allow you to mute and solo channels, expand the grid matrix, select new channels, navigate patterns, and more.Ĭentral to the Fire MIDI Controller’s layout is its 4x16 RGB pad matrix. Designed in collaboration with Image-Line, and boasting plug-and-play integration, this dedicated hardware controller is custom-designed for compatibility with the FL Studio Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) platform. For NI instruments at least, the knobs should also work to change plugin parameters, but I don't think they get pre-mapped to track volume or anything like that like you can do in other DAWs like Ableton.The Fire MIDI Controller for FL Studio from Akai Professional is a high-performance tool designed to enhance the music-creating experience. But most of the other button functionality won't work like quantize, metronome, loop, etc. It works fine as a basic midi controller, and if set up correctly and using the komplete kontrol vst, then some of the buttons will work like play/pause/record, and you can cycle through plugin presets etc using the browsesr button/jog wheel thing. It works but the integration is minimal, and it apparently says this on their site as well.
