Is it able to control virtual instruments (VST, RTAS, etc) with this keyboard?

for the most part yea, it may get a bit finiky at times however. And non-native plugins sometimes give it a few problems. But overall everything works well and its a great controller!

It is a USB keyboard so a computer with midi adapter running through the computer would work fine. I suggest you look at the Novation SL MKII - I have worked with both the Impulse and the SL and the SL is a much better KB for the bucks. Its the same size and has the Midi outputs your looking for to directly control your Yamaha or any other Midi keyboard. Still has the USB for use on your Mac or PC (does anyone actually use a PC for music production. The SL MKII works very good with Apples Logic and Logic has an amazing amount of sounds. Great production software!!

im assuming you already have a daw (digital audio workstation) Abelton, Cubase, Logic etc. any midi controller will work with Omnisphere or any other VST. that's what makes MIDI so cool!!

The keyboard you bought, doesn't produce sound of it's own. You will need a software and the one I personally use is synthesia.

Yes, you can. Kind of the point of a usb MIDI controller. Works with all the DAWs I've tried on (ie Ableton and FL).

The VoiceLiveTouch has midi in for harmony control. There is nothing available that will work, that is as cheap as the Harmony-M.

This keyboard is a controller only. It has no built-in sounds of its own. You must use midi to connect it to sound engine.

I don't think there are extra triggers/inputs. You can use it with VSTs etc but it will likely require a bit of setup. See my review for more details.

I use mine as a secondary controller hooked to a Fantom G6 so I have more space to split up the keys during performances, for a midi controller it's awesome, and keys have a consistent feel with the Fantom. Pete's right, though, it has no sound by itself, it has to be connected to some sort of MIDI device to be useful.

No, because it only a midi controller. If you using a laptop with sound then yes

Yes you can, but don't expect the sound will be good as it should be since it wasn't designed for keyboards.

I'm using the unit with an old style tactile -feel keyboard and a USB mouse. Works flawlessly. As to your specific use, the only way is to contact the manufacturer of both pieces of equipment; or buy it and try it.

Yes,,,, the maudio keyboard will work with any program that uses midi controllers,.. do the question would be, dies garage band support midi controller devices

i would assume so. This keyboard was used with a notebook running Windows 7 and it responded to MIDI messages.

It works out of the box in Ubuntu 13.10. The media keys on the keyboard work too. Specifically, I was able to use the play/pause button to control the playback of my music player (pithos) even when it was running in background

Hi there,As far as I know, no, it does not. I focus mainly on digital painting, but I've been playing around with this guy for a few weeks and I have not seen a virtual keyboard. But if you are a PC user (I work on Mac) you might get that windows keyboard. Hope that helps.

Only the keys are midi controllers. The rest of the knobs are for the sound the synth makes itself. I believe any midi controlled software is compatible with the MS-20. (I have not tried it myself, but it I've seen many do it, even on an iPad.)
