Perfect device for timesaving and RSI prevention
I use this device in REAPER.
The reasons I wanted this is that I wanted to save time with mixing, by preserving creativity without using the mouse too much or doing repetitive tasks.
I also wanted more buttons for VST/send control and a motivation to apply more automation into my music.
The build quality is pretty good for this price. It has rubber on the bottom to avoid slipping, which is nice.
The machine is very easy to comprehend at first use.
The only con I have (because I use REAPER) is that panning doesn't work in the first factory template (which has 99% of the functionality) because of the HUI intergration.
But this minor issue can be worked around by assigning the pan knobs in the other factory templates or user templates.

Works really well as a mixer in Ableton
I've not dived too deeply into this but it has a large amount of mapping features and a whole load of space for user templates.
I've just been mainly using it as a mixer, for filters and some effects. Very happy with it. The only thing is I installed the driver at the beginning which kept making Ableton crash as it thought it was an audio device. No issues since resolving this though and very handy to know have faders for different hardware in my templates

Excellent creative tool.
The product feels very sturdily built. All buttons / faders / pots are top quality and responsive. The product works seamlessly with Ableton as soon as you plug it in. It can be very easily customised like any MIDI controller. I purchased a USB cable separately as I needed the USB C type connection.

Great value
Setup as a mixer with Ableton is super easy, it just works out of the box. It is also a pretty neat generic MIDI controller since you can assign 8 different user-templates to the unit.

its a very nice controller
if you dont have other controller like APC 40 then this is woth otherwise if you are planning to use as a side controller to some main controller you have its a bit useless for me... i think it works perfect with novation pad...

Must have equipment
This is absolutely must have equipment for Ableton Live beginners. Perfect integration with the DAW. Use it in tandem with Novation Launcher(s). Good quality, smooth faders and knob move, well built.

Superb!
Super and must have product for mixing and automations in the DAW.
If I could improve that would be to add a LCD screen for the various I do of the channels and an extra line of controls for master channel

Really ultimate Ableton controller
Pros: Excellent features set "from the box" that is convenient to use in work with project. Can be used both with factory presets and in parallel with user. Enough for a large number of purposes.
It's a pity that there is no similar device with encoders.
Cons: Specifically, in my case, some led lights shine very badly.
