Akai Lpd8 Editor


Oct 13, 2020 Connect Akai LPD8 via USB cable; Open FL Studio and enable LPD8 MIDI controller in Settings; That should do it! Of course, you can later reprogram it, just as I did in this video. You don’t need step 1 in order to use it, Akai LPD8 is instantly recognized, however, you need LPD8 Editor later if you wish to reprogram pads and knob controllers. Open AKAI Professional LPD8 Editor; Edit the values for the 8 Pads and faders for Program 1, as shown in the image above. Under Program 1, click on the SEND button; You can manually program Programs 2 to 4, the same way, but keep in mind that these will not be offered as VirtualDJ keys, so do this if you intend to use the LPD8 in other.
