Frequently Asked Questions
While it functions as a standard MIDI controller, the deep integration and custom mappings are primarily designed for FL Studio. Expect a less streamlined experience in other DAWs.
The keys are synth-action, meaning they are lightweight and responsive but lack the resistance of weighted keys. It's a trade-off for portability and affordability.
Yes, the pads function as standard MIDI note triggers and can be mapped to trigger samples in any DAW, but you'll lose the FL Studio-specific pad control features like the Channel Rack control.
