The new APC is significantly more compact than the original. The bulky bevelled surround is gone, and the launch pads are now slim rectangles instead of squares, trimming the size in all dimensions. The unit is also much lighter, which is a good thing for the travelling performer. The MkI was built like a piece of traditional pro-DJ equipment, with a tough metal enclosure and replaceable crossfader module. The MkII has more in common with modern music tech commodities that spend most of their time in the studio. That being said, it seems well built and sturdy enough to survive being carted around in a padded gig bag.

The core of the APC40 remains the 9x5 clip-launch grid, laid out above faders and track controls to mimic Live’s Session View. As well as the shape change, the most noticeable change is that the MkII’s pads are now fully multi–coloured, upgraded from the Mk I’s green/yellow/red. This allows the pads to reflect clip colours, as well as to show which clips are playing or recording. As before, cursor buttons move the grid around the Session View in single row/column steps, or whole banks with the Shift key. The Shift key also shows a high-level overview of the whole Session on the pads. The new shape and colour–coding significantly improves the visual link between the hardware and software.
