  • Doesn the Axiom 61 come with Ableton?

  • are you using the software that comes with this keyboard to get those sounds??

  • hey i'm using the axiom61 with fl studios, i fixed the latency issue but i'm having volume issues. When i press a key or a pad the volume is really low, do you know how i can fix this, and where is the edit button on the keyboard? plz help, thanks

  • Hello! I have a big problem with the latency with Ableton and the Axiom61. I play piano mainly and use the Axiom to trigger some backup tracks and samples, but no matter what I do, I can't get the piano sound on time, it's always delayed =( Any idea that could help?

  • @almahardcore latency may be improved with an ASIO sound driver. Try ASIO4all its free and works alright. I use the external presonus ASIO soundcard in my setup

  • Thumbs up for the 4:51 belly button rub

  • Not trying to sound like a complete dumbass but is there any much of a difference from 49 and 25 except for more and less keys?

  • @Rephiz Not really dude...you only pay shit loads more for a couple more octaves..smh

  • @fullsolo, dont ever buy axiom brand, i have axiom 61, i spent lot of money for that and within a year keys has broken.. now almost all the keys are broken. still i didnt find the place to repair because no body repair it because they dont know this brand. i'm 100% sure this brand is one of the worse brand ever.

  • Thank you for the demo man. I started producing Industrial Metal. You probably wouldnt know, but could you recomend any software for my Axiom that would have industrial sounds?

  • @Wesley77Small Hmmm, well ya COULD learn to make them yourself, you know, read up on signal processing and synthesizer basics, instead of expecting to be a musician right outta the box. But the fact alone that you said, "...software for my Axiom that would have 'blank-blank' sounds", regardless of making no sense, kinda tells that you won't be using much, if any, original material. So oh well...

  • @Wesley77Small axiom can play pretty much any VST (the virtual instruments) for industrial i would probably use NI Massive and Reason but its best to make your own sounds in any synth vst

  • I like the sound of the padz. btw how r the keys on the axiom? how do they feel?

  • @gumdrops27 the keys are semi-weighted. Its not like playing a piano, but it works alright for me

  • man one query,if you go to m-audio website you will find in top view photograph you will find your screen between your faders and knobs ?

  • Considering buying the axiom off craigslist, anyone had any bad experiences with it? Also how do the keys feel?

  • I can't run my Axiom 61. I try out Fruity Loops

  • @21680Boys are you 100% sure! i am about to buy Axium61 to my FL Studio 10.0.2! plz tell me. ´:o

  • good job

  • I love this keyboard. Many thanks for this video. Subscribed.

  • Please, right out of the box, am I gonna be able to plug and play? I see people assigning keys, etc. I wonder if the factory CDs enable this thing to be played right on. Is that simple? Which sounds (piano, organ, drums) are immediately available, if any? Thank you. Also, does it play/control any instruments software?

  • what external soundcard do you use?

  • I have axiom 61 but i dont like this. because its complicated and very poor functioning. i can say one of the worse programn and function of any keyboard.i encourage any one not to buy this Axiom 61.

  • wats the price for one of these???

  • I had one concern and that was if one could assign different patches to a controller and that was answered in the video. Can I connect two or three controllers?

  • this is awesome! i've been looking at axiom 61 & 61 pro, no previous experience with music production but I get so many ideas run through my head at night that I really need to start putting them down. Is a lot of technical knowledge on the hardware and music production techniques required to make something of decent quality? and with software such as abelton, cubase etc can you make tracks of studio quality that could be released for sale? Thanks

  • i saw that you had an external sound card... is that necessary apart from the one already in my laptop. and are there any less expensive options for software or does it come with like ableton lite of pro tools LE? thanks for the tutorial. you have motivated me more to finally go out and buy one! :)

  • How did you get it to auto loop the individual sounds?

  • Who is that at the end? They sound pretty good.

  • I HAVE ABELTON LIVE 7.0.6 HAVENT USED IT BUT ONCE OR TWICE I KNOW ALOT OF DJS THAT LOVE IT THO HEY IS THERE A WAY TO EXPORT THE DRUMS TO WAVE FILES SO I COULD USE IN CUBASE 5

  • @youngsta2323 FUCK YEAH CAPSLOCK

  • @4Seasonfilms HEy... Go for REaper... it costs only 40$

  • wad is actualyy a midi controler.. is it somethin like a synthesiser..???

  • I would love to know how you get your midis to work with it, and where did you get sounds, I NEEEED some. Also Loved this vid bro... im gonna go get one of these now, would love to know how exactly you set it to auto record and loop. And and how many loopable tracks can u Have?

  • I know it's a midi controller, so where do you get your sounds from to play them through the midi? I want to get one but would love to know a good place to get sounds.

  • I will post a "set-up" video soon.

  • can you control ableton with the axiom?

  • @chickenmankel Yes. Just YouTube it or search google.

  • @chickenmankel Ableton Live Lite 6 is bundled with the Axiom. Presets 19 and 20 are pre-programmed to control Ableton.

  • Email is koreillymaster@aim.com

  • How does the axiom 61 work I'm planing on getting a 25 key

  • very cool... that controller is amazing and you too men... thumbs up...

  • @4Seasonfilms Ableton is expensive, but so are all of the rest. If you want to check it out before you buy, with full editing and saving capabilities, Ableton has a 30 day demo that's free @ ableton.com

    Some of the m-audio external sound cards come with a demo of live, which has some minimal instruments and capabilities It was like $199 for the sound card I bought and it came with the Ableton lite software. Hint... watch the online demos because otherwise. live's system is a little confusing.

  • idk how to get my axiom to work with ableton. plug it in and i can hit the keys but record. and the knobs. nothing works

  • drums suck. too dry

  • I Have the axiom 25 nd my pads arent as sensitive as that did u change them with "Enigma"???

  • @RealRapMusic187 : You can decrease the 'attack' by editing the plug-in itself.

  • @RealRapMusic187 The sounds are generated by Virtual Instruments, so they are really sensitive, the controller sends velocity that appears on the screen as 1-127, but it REALLY depends on what software or samples you are using. Some sample triggering software allows for velocity sensitive triggering, using envelopes or multi-sample kits

  • I've heard some comments about the touching response of the keys is not so good, is it true??? I wanna buy it, but I need to know this because a play a psr 202 and months ago I played a m-audio oxygen (I know it isn't the same keyboard) but I noticed that the key response was bad, even my yamaha was better, I hope you can help me with that doubt.

  • Comment removed

  • how do you get it to loop what you record

  • Great video...thanks

  • I'm planning on buying an Axiom 61 this summer .. Then I'm going to buy kore player .. Is there something else I need ?

  • Cool vid. Made it look easy. Dope!

  • i am thinking of buyin this but not totally sure

    Can this be used in fl or only with software like protools i only want to use fl

    also the 8 pads in the corner can you assign them to any drum, bass kick, hi hat or even song u want?

    will instruments when played on the keyboard show up in the piano roll of fl?

    Can you assign the keyboard to play any instrument that is in fl?

    thanks

  • @snake786123 It works flawlessy with FL! =)

  • Hi, I was wondering if it works in fl studio??, very good video man

  • @shak055

    yea it works in Fl studio

  • how did you assign the pads? im using fl studio 9

  • @kilibong004

    theirs a video on youtube that shows how to assign the pads

  • do you think the axiom 49 would be sufficient or should I get the 61? I just prefer the 49 price.

  • @camtheman499videos Depends on what kindda music you do.If you do hip-hop/rap i would if i was on a budget.i want all 5 octives though lol.There is an octive button on there just in case you want to go higher.

  • nice

  • Hey i get everything to work and im using preset 18 for ableton but when i set up my impulse on the pads they are on the keys too how do you seperate pads from key sound please help my only problem and a very little one.. I have some tricks to share also in exchange.

  • what card are you working with for the axiom?

  • How did you get it to work with ableton!?!? i've had my axion 61 for a little while, and i'm finding it IMPOSSIBLE! my computer when i go to the midi sync in the prefrences, it doesn't have anything in the input section, and then i can't get the computer to pick up the board too now! are you able to help?

  • This is so sick, I just got the Axiom 61 and my brain is full of fuck trying to understand it.

  • @Scorge120 lol me too, u have to download the manual..it tells u all the cool stuff it can do

  • I bought an axiom 61 thinking it would be easy to get started. nothing i do will make it make any sound. I have ableton which came with it, but i cant figure that out either. i feel so stupid and no one is any help e__e i guess i have a $300 paperweight now.

  • @arcanejazz Ableton does have a pretty steep learning curve. The axiom 61 is just a midi controller - so it doesn't make any sounds itself - but it's still very powerful. You'll need to familiarize yourself with an audio software package like ableton, garageband for PC's etc. Ableton's one of my fave's and should have come with your Axiom - you should check out the ableton website and you can find a lot of good tutorial videos for getting you started! :)

  • Dude, Im thinking of getting the pro version of this, with hyper control. I wanna know if this axiom 61 is worth it? Do the keys feel nice? and is the software "Enigma" it comes with, any good? If not what would be better to use? I wanna ask someone who looks as if they know what they're on about (you) xD thanks dude, Im subbing BTW

  • @Mattbellmay Hey man - I just got my hands on an Axiom 61 and I absolutely love it. I'm a pianist, and I don't think you can ever really 'replicate' the feeling of a piano, but the Axiom 61 just feels VERY nice.. good weight. If you want to see what I"ve been doing with it just look for me on youtube (digitallush)

  • Tip from Robdrums69

    IK Multimedia have a GROUP BUY on Sample Tank XT for $49.00 ;)- it's at 3X1 - but soon will be at 4X1 - Great deals !!!

    go to their site to check out the deal !!

  • nice stuff. reminds me of Magic Sound Fabric.

  • maann thats nice

    do you have that base or somthing like that?

    to have ti?

  • Thanks!

  • o my good this  midi controller is very very good :o work station?

  • your totaly badass!!!

  • Can I use this keyboard to work with Sonar?

  • Can I use this keyboard to work with Sonar?

  • the Axiom 61 comes with Ableton? or did u buy it separately?... and why did u choose this specific keyboard?... i need to know because ill probably buy one...but im not totally convinced yet

  • @cnb92 they come together when u guy axiom 61 u get ableton live lite 4 and free serial to use it at all :P

  • Yes it has 64 bit support I have windows 7 and i use Ableton 8. The Axiom Series have a internal midi map so that with most program it maps automatic or assignin is a snap you just move a knob and it assigns. He Prob forgot to mention that also you can download a free Enigma program for it at m audios website it has lots of presets. Once you learn this you will see its so easy and not hard at all plus you can save your own presets in enigma or your software. :)

  • youre a damn dert bag

  • how can i assign to the pads the drum sounds.. anyone ?

  • does anyone own an axiom pro 61? does it have 64-bit support?

    ALSO, what is the difference (if any) in the feel/"weight" of the keys between the pro & standard? many thanks if someone can answer this...

  • yes it does have 64 bit suppoert the difference is with the pro u have the proper piano feel to it and the standard one is not smmooth so it doesnt have a piano feel to it and when u press a key on a pro it doesnt make a sound of plastic keys hitting each other the pro is relly great and has a nicer feel and also is like a proper traditional piano i suggets u buy pro easier and more fun wya making a beat

  • The Pro has some heavier keys, but it's also $200 more expensive. And it's silver, I like black keyboards better.

    The Axiom is a great starter if you want to go into soft-synths. It's got better key action than the Keystation or Oxygen controllers, and the stand-alone MIDI in/out is a big plus when you're on the road.

    Don't expect to play this one like a grand piano, but you don't have to slam the keys either, like you need on cheap $35 USB keyboards.

  • hey man i just got my axiom 61 with ableton live 6 and i dont know how to make it sound!! help me pleasee!!!

  • Good song

  • i got Axiom 61.. it's recommended..

  • very nice

  • hi guys I can't assign the transport buttons I have an AXIOM 49 and live 8 how can I do?

  • yoo great video man, just what i was looking for thanks  :)

  • i just got my axiom 61, and i have ableton 8. when i try to midi map the buttons below the faders, it says its titled "1/pb" or pitchbend...how to i assign the buttons?

  • Im thinking of getting this keyboard, do recommend it?

  • i got the 49. recomended

  • @DJTwy I have the axiom 61, Id say it would depend on what software youre using, I'm using Logic 9, as far as playability it's great, but I cant say its a great software controller as far as logic, they have presets for reason, protools, Ableton and others but very minimal Logic support, I think the Axiom pro does a lot better.

  • cheers guys!

  • I have an E-MU 1820m audio interface. Should I use that instead of my on-board soundcard?

    Also I have an Alesis Multimix16 firewire but that's more for recording.

    I'm using an M-Audio Axiom 49.

  • nice. If you can do that with ableton, I'm sold until I'm using reason4 again.

  • I have a huge one second delay in between when I hit the note and when I hear it in the head phones. It's absolutely revolting.

  • what software are you using? try to lower the sound buffer in the audio options :)

  • how do you assign the pads and the keys to different instruments?

  • a little to electronic for me but thank you so much for this video! its exactly what i was looking for. keep up the good work man...

  • dude please make some more vids of you doing this its so awesome! i love it!

  • anyone no how to change the velocity settings to play full 127?

  • how do you assign drum patterns to the trigger pads?????

  • this is what i want to get into, producing, always been my passion.

  • Comment removed

  • Can you get an external power supply and hook it up to speakers or do you have to use a PC?

  • It's just a controller (very much like a computer keyboard) so you need to use a PC. It just sends MIDI signals to the PC.

  • thanks!!!

  • I have the same keyboard and can hookup the usb and change sounds to the keyboard through garageband BUT like others posting here, I'm clueless on how to ASSIGN drum sounds to the pads and how to change sounds (assign) to 'the fader buttons'(?). BTW, checkout Billy Van Productions for some cool Axiom mixes.

  • @jbw7 its to do with what channels its transmitting on. I think the default is for the keys to transmit on midi channel 1, and the pads transmit on channel 10. If you have your inputs selected to all midi then both pads and keys will give same response, but if you make 2 different instruments tracks, eg a Piano and a drum track, and set piano to receive from channel 1 and drums from channel 10 then it should work.

  • i just got a axiom 61 and i don't have a clue how to change the sounds and anything else like that, or get those buttons where you had the drums in the top right to play like that (with drums). i got the enigma thingie but it doesn't really work.......PLEASE HELP!!!

    Great video

  • Nice! :)

  • oh wow amazing

    I want a keyboard like that

  • how did you put the drum machine on PADS and the Synth on the keyboard? I use Ableton, but I've no IDEA!!!

  • @17OfSpades

    Within Ableton (In the top righthand corner) there should be a small button called "Midi" When you click that it brings up a menu allowing you to map any control in Ableton to a Midi signal.

    When you use the drum rack. It automatically sets the system up for drum pads. All you have to do is add the sounds and map the controls.

  • @danxl5 is it possible to assign just drums to the pads and synth and so forth to the keyboard, and play the drums and the keyboard simultaneously? thanks.

  • Yeah, you can put them on different channels. So that's 100% possible. Fast and simple. :)

  • use "chan assign" (or enigma) on the pads and use different midi channels (10 is old school midi for drums i have noticed) then for the tracks: either record both with overdub off or watch the "Ctrl-Alt-I" sections so you don't get auto-monitored out of the mix

  • simple. go into the maping feature. click on say.the bass drum. then press the pad on your midi keyboard. and your done.

  • Great Video Man!!!!

  • Does axiom 49 hve the tick tock sound when ur recording i think its called metronome? please help me

  • Yes it does :D

  • k thx

  • the metronome is a part of any production program that you use. but you can map the axiom turn on and off the metronome if you want it to.

  • I was thinking about getting this keyboard to start off learning piano and music theory. I know it wont work by it's self i was thinking of using it with garage band or something. do you think this would be a good choice with a sustain pedal to learn piano as well midi controller?

  • yes

  • Thanks :) happy new year

  • cool stuff.

  • ok thanks

  • i wished you lived closer, I've had my Axiom 61 since last year and it's too complicated..............

  • no help at all, unless i was going to ride it down a waterfall into TLCs water bed

  • does this work with fl studio 8?

  • It should work with any software that allows the mapping of a midi controller.

  • thanks for sharing!

    I've been using Axiom 61 with Reasons and never knew about the metronome button!

  • I cant wait untill i get my controller! axiom is that fuckin shit!!! im going to be running it to fl studios!

  • first diddy reminds me of silent hill

  • I love music tech.  Thanks for reminding me.

  • Can I use the axiom 61 to play live? (you know the quality keys) thanks

  • You can

  • 1:58 reminds me of the KLF chill out....nice

  • Hello Admosquad...do you know if this is good with Logic Pro? And is it compatible with a MAC?

  • Great tute.

    I just ordered an Axiom 61.. can't wait.

  • Does anyone know how the drum pads are set up like that? I want to sample midi files using those pads while playing through MainStage. Is there a way I can easily do both? I can't figure it out. Getting my Axiom 49/61 soon depending on if thats possible or not.

  • with the axiom can u record it into say logic? or cubase or something?

  • yea i think m-audio is compatible with every daw

  • Great Stuff! Got my first midi controller today and you inspired me. I have the Axiom 49 and after a good nights sleep. I'm gonna have a go at it. Thanks for the vid and keep em comming.

  • hey, very good video, can you please tell me what monitoring speakers are you using? I saw the same model in some other videos so I assume it is good but I don't know what it's called..

  • I just got my axiom 61. Can someone help me to assign my axiom with garage band . ex record,play ... I need it to be program with garage band without me always going on my computer keyboard all the time when I'm doing midi recording

  • i have the same problem

  • what vst s are you using

  • Ableton 6

  • 7:43 - 7:46 wtf lol? :P

  • do you have a settings file that you wouldnt mind emailing to me. I just bought one of these. I have live 7

  • hay can you tell me how to asign drums to pads and keys to a vsti like what your doing im getting the vsti trigering the pads and keys and want to have one vsti to each

  • What he probably did is set the keys to one specific midi channel and the drum pads to another midi channel, and each of those channels are routed to 2 different vsti: one for synth and another for drum vsti.

    EASY!

  • Comment removed

  • are you using cubase or something

  • lol, Ableton 6, kinda obvious XD

  • its a good idea to make your metronome a toggle-button instead of a hold-button. Then you have both hands free.

  • Great sounds

  • Sexy lead.

  • What was the name of the second instrument that you were playing?

  • axiom 61 + cuabse5 = ownage

  • axiom 61 + Logic + MacBook Pro = more ownage

  • there are lot's of programs that dont support mac dude

  • every program works to mac dumb ass.. if you want programs like fl studio its just to download parallels..

  • Then it's running on windows, not mac you dumb cunt. Learn your fucking facts first.

  • Exactly, your running windows on your mac, then the program is running on windows through mac, fuck get some common sense.

  • That's true but logic is probably the best program out there, except pro tools.

  • I use axiom with Reason which is the Pwn!

  • I Have One For Sale Here In Chicago For 200. I Also Got It Posted On Craigslist

  • The new Axiom looks pretty slick. I'm torn between getting one of these and a Novation ReMOTE SL 61 :( Maybe both? hehe
