Mixer section

The classic mixer section gives you controls for volume, solo/pre-cue, record arm and mute functions. The eight faders correspond to a bank of eight tracks in Live; you can shift right and left to move to tracks nine, ten and beyond.

Ride the faders

The APC40 features eight tracks, each with its own fader, solo/pre-cue, mute and record arm buttons. A Master fader controls the master volume and a Cue Level knob controls cue volume, so you can pre-listen to a clip or the metronome without your audience hearing it.

You can shift these eight tracks around the Session View using the directional controls. Press the right or left arrows to move incrementally, one track at a time. Hold the Shift button and press the right or left arrows to jump in blocks of eight tracks at a time.
