Hi just curious if Any1 has tried using the Akai fire with an MPC,
I just had the idea that it might work nice with the stepsequencer on the MPC, using it as in fruity loops to
Input steps per pad sound.

Could be easy for workflow.

It's useless with a MPC Live/X/One.

What kind of integration did you expect? That the keys would light up as you input notes or something? No.

It's not going to do anything to the MPC workflow. If you want that kind of workflow (monolanes), then get a Force.

No go on that, it’s a basic midi controller without FLstudio.

Beatstep, Beatstep pro or something similar will do what you are asking though.
