In this video, I break down the best controllers for every budget and purpose. Discover budget-friendly options like the Akai APC Mini and mid-range favourites like the APC 40 Mk2, APC 64, and Novation Launchpad Mini Mk3. Dive into advanced picks like the Novation Launchpad X, Launchpad Pro Mk3, and the ultimate studio and live solution—the Ableton Push 3. I also explore legendary models like the Ableton Push 1 and Push 2, which are still excellent choices on the second-hand market.
