Dead Keys on the Cold Cold Ground
July 9, 2009 7:03 AM

I have an M-Audio Axiom 49 midi controller that I am playing with Reason 4.0. On my desktop, certain keys won't play. On my laptop, all keys play. Why?

I am guessing I must have mucked something up with the keyboard config in reason on the desktop. It's not that there's a couple keys on one end that won't play, it's that the C, D and E keys will not play accross the keyboard. It's so bizarre. But when I plug it into my laptop all keys play fine. Tried reinstalling drivers. Now what?

Do you have a lot of presets stored? If not, do a full reset on the Axiom. I've found that channel 10, the one Reason defaults to, can get wonky sometimes and I can only clear it up after a full reset. Also, have you installed the 4.0.1 patch? It resolved various weirdness issues for my Axiom 61.

I have this same issue with my Axiom 61 and I can not for the life of me resolve it. I tested it with some MIDI program, and it seems that it isn't sending the Note On message on certain keys. I haven't tried the 4.01 patch suggested by zerokey, but will certainly give it a shot.
