this product is very useful in many programs like ableton, FL Studio, and other DJ mixing programs. i personally use this product as cue point markers when i use Mixvibes DVS. this is also very useful for home music production. what i like most about the MPD pad is that has a three different presets for different pads.

Comments about Akai MPD18 Compact Pad Controller:
I really enjoyed this product, I've had other midi pads in the past but they all broke after 6 months, this one has held up much longer and better then any of those. It may cost a little more then most of these basic midi pads but it is defiantly worth it.
Pros
- Lightweight

- Unreliable
- Ureliable
