AKAI - FORCE - Station de Production Autonome

Force brouille les lignes entre les solutions de production musicale contemporaine et les dernières technologies disponibles pour les performances DJ, une première parmi les standards de l’industrie. En fusionnant déclenchement de clips, step-sequencing, échantillonnage, mais aussi moteurs de synthèse en interne, sans oublier l’écran tactile dernière génération, le tout dans un seul équipement autonome dédié à la performance, le Force conjugue les fonctionnalités indispensables pour offrir une ergonomie ultra-intuitive et vous permettre de laisser libre cours à votre créativité.

Force embarque une matrice de 8x8 pads de déclenchement avec rétro-éclairage RVB, un écran couleur tactile de 7 pouces, 8 potentiomètres sensibles au toucher avec affichage OLed graphique individuel, 2 entrées audio, 4 sorties audio, sans oublier la connectique MIDI et CV Gate. Tout cela mis bout à bout laisse à l’utilisateur une liberté créative sans précédent, puisqu’il va même jusqu’à s’émanciper d’un ordinateur complémentaire.

L’essence même du Force consiste en un workflow concentré sur l’usage des clips, qui sont à l’origine de vos performances créatives. Choisissez parmi plusieurs modes tels que plugins, pistes de percussions à la sauce MPC, mais aussi pistes audio, Keygroup, pistes MIDI et CV pour définir votre type de clip, puis personnalisez-les grâce au séquenceur pas-à-pas et aux pads de performance, et ajoutez des notes via la fenêtre d’édition ou les modes smart-scales, chords ou progressions.

En addition, Force dispose de capacités avancées en terme de timestrech en temps reel et de modulation du pitch avec une qualité équivalente à celle des logiciels de production musicale actuels, de plugin d’effets issus des collections AIR Music Technology et des moteurs de synthèse TubeSynth, Bassline et Electric. Un autre synthé, Hype, vient allonger cette liste, un synthé basé sur des presets et des macros cumulant plusieurs moteurs de synthèse en un seul plugin, facile à utiliser. Force peut aussi enregistrer jusqu’à 8 pistes audio stéréo.

Force inclut plus de 10GB de sons embarqués, issus des plus célèbres collections de contenus premiums comme SampleTools by CR2, MSX Audio et Sample Magic. Avec ses 248 kits, ses 16 projets démos, plus de 2 500 boucles et 500 motifs, la bibliothèque de Force vous ouvre les portes des meilleurs sons pour nourrir votre créativité. A compter de mars 2019, Force comprendra également une intégration en profondeur avec Ableton Live en mode contrôleur. Cette fonctionnalité inclura une visibilité et un contrôle total sur la matrice de clips Ableton, le contrôle tactile des paramètres de mixage dont l’assignation du crossfader, et le contrôle des paramètres du Force sur l’espace de travail Ableton Live, via l’écran tactile et les potentiomètres Q-Link du Force.

De plus, mars 2019 marquera également l'intégration de Splice au sein de Force. Splice Sounds alimente la créativité des producteurs du monde entier avec un accès à des millions d'échantillons, de sons, de presets et de boucles de haute qualité et libres de droits, couvrant presque tous les genres musicaux. Avec l'intégration de Splice, les utilisateurs de Force auront un accès wi-fi immédiat à leur propre bibliothèque Splice directement depuis l'interface utilisateur tactile - parfait pour une audition ultra-rapide des sons à intégrer dans leur projet.

AKAI - FORCE - Standalone Music Production/DJ Performance System

The Akai Force is designed to break boundaries between studio production and live performance. With 16GB of on board storage, you can import your stems, loops and one-shots into the Force and begin assigning them to the 8x8 clip matrix. You can then apply playback modes to loop, trigger, and remix your tracks. You can also time-stretch in real time without latency or digital artefacts impacting your samples.

If you don’t want to use your own samples, the Force comes with 10GB worth of signature Akai samples. Use the extensive factory kit library to create your own drum tracks, as well as the highly regarded Synth engines that are present in the MPC 2.3 series update. Use these in collaboration with your own tracks and stems and assign these tracks to the Force’s crossfader for the ultimate mashup. You won’t need to worry about timing either, as the Force will automatically sync to a master BPM, so you’ll never miss a beat.

Designed With Performers In Mind

Whether in the studio or on stage, there’s no reason you can’t excite your mixes and stems. Using the impressive new XYFX feature, you’re able to do this. Use the Force’s 7 inch multi-touch display and on-board XFYX controls to apply filters, modulations, beat repeat effects, plus a host of additional features in individual tracks or selected outputs on the go.

Take on venues with confidence. The Akai Force was designed with live performance in mind, either standalone as a performance centre, or, easily integrated into your current DJ set up. Link up to Ableton via a wireless network and sync your project with Ableton Link, which means it can also be linked with any of the existing Akai MPC series. In standalone mode, prepare with the Cue-Mix feature for the perfectly timed drop. Dedicated cue assign controls and a cue mixer are available for outputs 3/4, as well as the cue-blend control on the headphone out on the front of the unit, so you have all the control.

Have Total Control

The Akai Force allows you to feel confident in your set. Unlike making changes using conventional laptop and DJ setups, everything can be commanded from the front of the Force. The 7 inch full-colour multi-touch capacitive screen allows you to search through all your various parameters and assign them to hardware controls.

These can be assigned to any number of controls. The Force features Akai’s class leading RGB drum pads (backlit so they’re ready for the stage or moody studio lighting), as well as eight 360-degree rotary encoders, all with OLED screens so you can see the value and what has been assigned to each touch capacitive encoder. These allow you to improvise on the go with total reassurance.

Seamless Integration

With both producers and performers in mind, the Force is easy to use in any live or studio set-up. Much like the MPC range, the Force can be used as a sampler, just plug your synthesizer, drum machine, mixers, or instrument directly into the two Combi XLR/Jack inputs on the rear (with independent gain controls). Load the in-built Sampler and begin sampling and looping.

Have total control of your outputs as well with a combination of four ¼-inch jack outputs on the rear of the mixer. Assign individual tracks to either the left or right main outputs of the Force and trigger samples to each out independently, whilst having your main beat playing in stereo for total, hectic stereo immersion. With the second set of outputs, you’re able to mix your own monitors, feed another mixer, or ever feed into another DJ system to have a scratch system on the go. You also have an independent headphone input on the front of the unit, so you can easily swap your headphone mixes between live sets.

Versatile Connectivity

The Force is also filled with MIDI capability. With MIDI in/out/thru, you can send MIDI data to external synths, drum machines, or DJ controllers to trigger sounds during your set. You can also control sounds within the Force using the two USB’s on the rear panel by plugging in a bus powered MIDI controller. This will automatically route to your current session and allow you to play melodies and drum parts using a more traditional format instead of the pads. You can also link your modular gear. Much like the MPC X, the Force utilises 4 CV/Gate outputs to send MIDI data to external modules. You can also use the standard MIDI out to send data to any additional drum modules or synths.

16GB Onboard Storage

As well as the 16GB of on-board storage, there is also an SD card input on the front of the module. This will allow you to load your samples quickly, without the hassle of going to the back of the unit to plug in a USB. If you’d prefer to use a USB stick, the two USB ports can be used to load your beats, samples, and setlists. Ideal for a more permanent set up.
