Hey Walsh,

So when you hit a key on your Axiom the little yellow light in the top right corner of Ableton lights up?

Have you checked Preferences - Midi - control surfaces to make sure it is still selected?

If you arm a midi track with nothing in do you get the yellow key volume lights?

If you don't get the yellow lights I would take the opportunity to download the latest drivers and reinstall. If you do,we need to do more checks.

yes everything is set up correctly the yellow light pops up every time i hit a key and the preference settings are correct... also i run on a relatively older mac... it says there is no driver needed for 10.5.8 on the M-Audio website

Something similar happens to me when my little fella comes down & starts banging everything & pressing buttons etc.. that shouldnt be presses on the Midi Keyboard.

I now know what to do.. but its literally just press a button on the keyboard itself.. or twist the dial back to midi channel 1. I dont have your keyboard - but it sounds familiar to me. When it happens in Ableton, I have to press a button (not sure what it does.. but its like an internal mode button of some kind). When it happens & I'm in Logic, I have to put the keyboard back to midi channel 1, where he has twisted a rotary knob & put it to some other channel.

Worth a try.
