On another note, I have been using the Axiom over here for almost 2 years now, and its still holding up well and feels just like it did when I first got it. It would be well worth anyone's money.
PettyCash, we have damn near every daw for compatibility issues at times. im really an engineer that happens to produce some things but i have 2 producers with me. 95% of our tracks if they arent getting done with hardare they're getting done within Nuendo. we also have sonar 7 and PT7.4... might be adding logic 8 very soon also.

im not sure if you and zacchino read the part in my msg regarding the mpd32 but i do already use the axiom 61...ive actually had it about 2 years too. i was using my triton studio 61 for a while but it actually sucks as a controller keyboard.
thats kinda why i was joking in my first post regarding an axiom PRO.. 76key with 12-16 pads.. i'd be happy..lol

mmm, might just get a motif xs 88 or fantom g 88 b/c i want the boards and also use it as a contoller...??? who knows
for now i've still been sticking with the axiom 61 and and battery 3
