Akai Professional

I’m buying Ableton Intro Live and want to buy a Midi Keyboard to go along with it. Will any kind work with it?

I know how to play the piano and synthesizers and such but do not know much about software, but I’ve heard friends rave about recording on the Ableton Live. For instance, will this keyboard work? —

Congrats on diving into the wonderful world of music software!

That keyboard should work great with any computer with a usb connection. You may need to download or install drivers for it (they should come with it on a CD). If you have any problems, you should first check the manufacturer’s website to get the most current drivers for it.

Let me know if you have any issues setting it up in Ableton Live specifically. I’d be glad to help there too. I currently writing tutorials on Ableton Live in my blog below. Good luck!
