A really bad call apparently.. Nothing would work as far as mapping. Tryed reinstall over and over, still, no results. I run mac, use logic as Daw ,reason and massive mostely. Not only that it didn't work, it would actualy interfere with reasons slave mode so I had to create a whole new track. Have to throw a good word for sweetwater, they did triy to help and will refund! Also they didn't sound too surprised about the issue.. "it happened before" they say. Hope my experience could save you some time..

I've only found one or two reviews on the web about the axiom pro, and they were both short. I woulda thought they'd be everywhere by now...???? like most, I’m waiting to hear more reviews about this baby before I take the plunge.

But there still seems to be very little information out there. Not sure if m-audio is still delayed in shipping them or what.

A new axiom pro has been released with hyopercontrol and all other new features, but the "plain" axiom has been mantained the same since its release?? I've noticed that axiom prices are really low while axiom pro prices are similar to those in the m-audio page. Thnks Let me get this straight since I am intending to buy an axiom keyboard.

I've just moved to Indonesia and am in desparate need of a new control surface as shipping my old beast of a Keystation 88 just isn't a good option. Besides, never got much in the way of control out of that thing anyway. Would love an Axiom vs Axiom Pro (vs Novation Remote) review too, but might have to wait a bit as there don't seem to be too many units on the market just yet. I'm using Logic Pro and Live and most of the info now seems to be re: ProTools. Regarding firmware updates for the old Axiom, don't hold your breath for one: "Furthermore unlike the standard Axioms the firmware is completely updatable, which means what we see here is Axiom Pro HyperControl v1.00.
