Always connect the LPD8 to your computer before opening the software editor.
After opening the software editor, you will need to select the LPD8 from the drop-down
menu on the opening screen and click "Done."
y For Mac or Windows Vista users, it will be listed as Akai LPD8.
y For Windows XP users, it will be listed as USB Audio Device. (If you have other USB audio devices
connected to your computer, which may have identical names, you may need to try selecting each one
until the LPD8 is recognized.)

The editor lets you edit, save, or load presets for the LPD8 on your computer. These buttons and fields are
shown at the top of the editor window.
1. GET PRESET – Click a button to select the number of a preset currently on the LPD8 (1-4). When you
select it, its settings will be shown on the software interface.
2. PRESET # – Click on this field to select the number that the currently shown preset will use if you
upload it to the LPD8 (by clicking COMMIT – UPLOAD).
3. COMMIT – UPLOAD – Click this button to send the currently shown preset to the LPD8. The number
of this preset is determined by the EDIT PRESET field.
4. SAVE PRESET – Click this button to
save the currently shown preset to
your computer.
5. LOAD PRESET – Click this button to
load a saved preset from your
computer. Once it loads, you will see
its settings in the software interface.
6. PRESET MIDI CHANNEL – Click this field to select the number of the MIDI channel which the LPD8
will use to transmit MIDI messages while using this preset.

the LPD8, simply select a new PRESET # before clicking
COMMIT – UPLOAD.
