I bought my Force the first month of release, was just about to sell it after the endless promises never materialised. Now it's like a whole new piece of equipment! Well worth the wait

The Force is by far the best thing Akai has done in a long time for hip hop producers. It just need a update with new MPC features. Come on Akai hurry up!

[samgoldsberry]

I bought a Force. It's amazing and very fun. The biggest slow down with me is key detection of samples. I really hope that Akai one day include key detection in stand alone mode. What a dream....

[shawnmanifestit]

Wow that’s amazing, leaning towards buying a Force now!

[AD-Dom]

This is so helpful for my older tracks that would've taken months to transfer.

What will happen if your Ableton Project is not in 4/4/ time signature?

[nizer]

Can it go the other way? Can I start projects on the Force and then load them in to Ableton for finishing?

[jeansimons]

Live11 cannot import Project.
Maybe waiting for an update.
I don't get a reply when I email support about this.
It is possible with Live10, but Projects created with Live11 cannot be imported into Force.
When I try to import and load the project, it powers down. (T_T)

Great man! Thank you for the vid...! I use the Push 2 to create instruments and clips then import into Force..!

[Wendel_Kos]

WOW THANKS Now we need the VSTi versions of all the Akai Force plugins like Hype etc, that we can load into Ableton, to be backwards compatible with Force! :):):)....is this possible?

[dubmasterconte]

Finally Arrived!!! A great update that every Akai Force owner wanted....now Akai Force is a really musical beast. Unbeatable : ) @t

[diegob]

Just discovered Akai Force, this is the real Push 3 😅

So let's say you import a pretty heavy Live project with lots of audio files - are you gonna max out the ram of the Force, or does it somehow stream directly from the sd-card when importing the entire set like this?

[gyptakl]

hey guys I need help... how do you load your project from Akai Force onto Ableton Live ? there are no clear instructions on youtube on how to do this LOL... I've been searching for this solution for hours... I simply do not know how to load my project from my Akai Force onto my Ableton Live... I have setup everything with Live Control but my project is not showing up on my laptop on Ableton Live ! :( .... can you please help ?

[elissitdesign]

I wish you could send files over the WIFI or Bluetooth option. Once I have the Live Link going can I save my midi clips directly onto the Force for Standalone or do I need to transfer the project on a memory card?

[pdmidipd_patch]

Hopefully it will push the devs to add a pitch envelope :)
(volume&filter fortunately already exist)

[thaexception]

Wow - every DAW needs to make hardware for their software like this!

[artsalsa]

hey! what's the best way to prepare the project (tracks/samples/everything) beforehand? i've noticed that sometimes audio clips' quality gets decreased, especially when it comes to time-stretched samples.

[ResAffolterSoundproductions]

wow Akai! awesome! The Force is now outstanding on the market! I love it....

[DJCJ]

What are the limitations between the two workspaces? Is the a track limit? Clip limit? Midi track or audio track limit?
