Hey would the Novation X-Station 25 Key be a good candidate for controlling the Virus Snow?? I tried using my Pioneer DJM800 which didn't work all too well since I didn't map anything. Unfortunately I had to let go of my Snow before I could try again.

What are some other 25 Key controllers that have a Midi out? We should make a list.

I remember somewhere in the list of forums that someone wanted to use the Nano Key controllers with the Snow. I looked into this a while back and it looks like it could get really complicated. The solution is simple... a USB in to Midi out device. Since there is no such thing, someone has to design one. Apparently it's easy to make devices that output USB data but it is much more complicated to design a USB controller to interpret that data. Basically it's not worth it. There's no market for it so no one will design and make it. I'd recomend if you want to use a USB midi controller for live use, then get a cheap used netbook and dedicate that to the Snow. I suppose you need a DAW to use it still... So we'll have to wait till Access makes a snadalone VC version.

WHEW! Wasn't expecting to write that much. I get so into my forum writing sometimes.
