M-Audio Axiom vs Axiom Pro

[JoaoPinheiro]

Can anyone please explain the difference between the M-Audio Axiom and the new Axiom Pro controllers?

Thanks!

I was actually wondering that myself. I have on of the regular Axiom49s and from what I can tell, the big thing is their new controller mapping software - apparently you can map (or macro) any control surface to anything inside an audio app. I can't find anything else new in the actual hardware though (other than the new paint job)

Thank you for the reply!

But couldn't you already map the any of the control surfaces to stuff inside the DAW with the previous Axiom?

Hey, I was looking for one of this too! It is just too cheap to not be interested.

Hey Jeebus, have you tried it with regular MIDI-controlled modules instead of PCs? I'm thinking this could be a good tool when gigging somewhere I don't want/need to take 88keys+stuff, but just Axiom+rack, but I'm not 100% convinced on the live-software thing... so, how good is it?
