Cheap, cheerful and potentially very handy, its a combination we all love and the Akai MIDImix controller threatens to do all that when it ships in a few months and could find itself appearing in a lot of setups.
Its an 8 channel mixer, 3 mapable knobs per channel and 2 buttons per channel with default 1 – 1 mapping to Ableton live out of the box.
That’s pretty much it. Simple, portable and a problem solver, all for around £60 when it launches, which is a price point we’re sure will help it find a home in many a studio and artists kit bags on the road.
