This controller comes with Akai’s Virtual Instrument Player (V.I.P) 3.0 software, offering universal compatibility with VST plug-ins from any MIDI controller and fluid, intuitive creative workflow for musicians, engineers and producers. VIP 3.0 allows any user to catalogue, control and map their entire VST collection to the MIDI controller of their choosing, whilst 3rd party developers have the option to create their own maps for greater integration going forward.
The M-Audio Axiom A.I.R. Mini 32 MIDI Controller is the smaller, more portable version of M-Audio's Axiom A.I.R. MIDI Controllers, combining mini-keys, pads and knobs in a user-friendly music creation tool.
The Axiom A.I.R. range was co-designed by M-Audio and German-based virtual instrument developers A.I.R. Music Technology, providing HyperControl automatic control mapping and integration with the included Ignite music creation software.
The M-Audio Axiom A.I.R. Mini 32 features 32 velocity-sensitive mini-keys for a comfortable playing experience, and is fully equipped with eight trigger pads, assignable low-profile knobs and stop/play/record buttons, providing endless composing possibilities and incredible control over any DAW.
The included Ignite DAW offers a music creation experience designed to compliment the Axiom A.I.R. perfectly, and remove the obstacles faced by users of other DAWs by providing direct access to sounds and effects with a simple control system.
The main features of the M-Audio Axiom A.I.R. Mini 32 include:
Excelente size for transportation and to produce on the the road, really easy to work with. It could bring a better software than Ignit though. The 32 keys have good weight and sensibility, the 8 pad bank too, it just take a little more time to get use to them.
