The Avid software is available

If you own Reason, Reaper, Sonar, Logic, Cubase or Pro-Tools, I really can't see what the fuss is for not having what is likely to be demo quality software available at this time.

: Avid told M-Audio that their software would be ready for download, but Avid blew their date.

"ambitions".Finally I got Reason 4.0 for Windows and when Propeller released Record 1.0, I just love that software, so I bought these two and now after upgrading it now I am using Reason 5.01 and Record 1.51 (and soon I will be buying Recycle 2.0), also starting using Mac for these tools, the reviews and videos use a WIDE variety of MIDI

(often very, very expensive software).It's clear what happened

Unfortunately, InMusic, the company that now owns M-Audio also owns Alesis, Akai - so buyer beware as it's unclear if the quality control problems are just with the M-Audio products or with the other keyboards as well
