Does it work with most DAWs?

I can only say it works smoothly with Cakewalk's Sonar Producer, my DAW. (The new "improved" Sonar is called X3, I think.) You'll likely have to make a couple phone calls to Presonus for setup, but once it works it keeps on working. The trick is to get a specialized computer (no antivirus needed, etc.) for DAW work and never connect it to the internet.

This works well with any DAW. So long as you input the right settings in your DAW. You shouldn't have very many issues.

Yes it does. I think it's more a question of what DAW you're using. I would think that it works with most of them since it's merely a MIDI signal, but you may want to verify that through M-audio's website to make sure. I'm running Presonus Studio One with no issues, and since it's M-audio... it should run on any major DAW. Good luck!

I have used it on ableton 8 and 9. Since ableton intro does allow for midi hardware I do see why it wouldn't.

I use it with logic x with close to 0 problems. As long as your computer recognizes it as a audio interface, which it should, then you can use it in close to any if not all DAWs

If you are using windows, when you plug it in, the drivers will be found automatically!!! When you start your daw, you may have to go to the settings and select it to use it.

As as i know, it will work with any software as long as the program itself support external devices and setting up input configuration to assign all controllers.m using Ableton on Mac and it work just perfect :) check their website and read the manual:http://www.akaipro.com/product/mpk-mini-mkii#system_requirements

It should work on Windows XP. All that matters is that the software it's being used with can work with MIDI data. If you don't know what that is, it's the information that's sent through the USB cord to control the software. I can't think of a music production software that DOESN'T work with MIDI in some way.

I am sorry, I don't have experience with those applications. I use this on my music recording studio to which it really makes work within the DAW quick and easy so creative juices aren't stalled - get right to work immediately.

Sure man, you can use it with any DAW (like Logic, Pro Tools, etc) or as a stand alone program.

It can only be used to trigger sounds in your DAW. It is used as a MIDI input device much like, say, a MIDI keyboard.

We used it with a roland drum kit to mixcraft in windows with no problem. Just plugged it in and it worked.

Yes, as long as your software is compliant. Ableton and FL Studio both work, verified personally.

It depends more on your OS than your DAW...on win 7 it should work fine, probably on 8 too. Just remember to set it as your default recording and playback card on your pc and it should hook up no problem.

The Novation Launchpad can only work with other DAWs if you have the Automap software which comes with it. If for some reason you bought one that didn't have the software, you can just download it from from the Novation website. Or you could save yourself the trouble and get their new product called the Novation Launchpad S, which can support any of the other DAWs without the use of the Automap software. It's the same product mind you, just with better and more compatible functionality.
