The windowing system means the various sections can display different parameters and tools. The toolbar contains various view modes for maximising tasks like sequencing, pad mixing, sample editing and program editing. If you are already in MPC world or indeed starting from scratch, the interface is very customisable and after a little learning, you will find your way around. Anyone coming from a lifetime of Logic or Cubase will recognise the piano roll, the sample editor and more, but have to adjust to a more pad-oriented approach to programming. It’s very much designed around the concept of AKAI’s 16-pad sequencers of course, and to that end it has a specific kind of workflow. Once you get started - there are a number of templates that use the several GB of sample content bundled with the DAW - you won’t particularly feel like this is an entry level application.
