M-audio Enigma For Mac

Feb 01, 2016 M-Audio M-Track is a program designed to help users control and configure the M-Track device. M-Audio M-Track transforms your computer into a digital recording studio with plug-and-play simplicity. The program is equipped with a versatile array of inputs to provide the best results with any type of audio source. Customizing the layout of the instrument requires M-Audio's Enigma software. Personally I don't really like it and wish the Axiom's didn't have a black box sysex format. It'd be nice to customize the layout of the keyboard w/o using this clunky app. I still really like this keyboard. Enigma by M-Audio is a software that allows users to edit all controllable parameters of Evolution products (MK425C, MK449C, MK461C, UC-33e and UC-17 X-Session). Enigma is easy-to-use: your Evolution keyboard or controller is actually shown on the screen. To assign a knob, slider or button on your Evolution product, simply drag the parameter from the list and drop it onto the controller you wish to assign. Acclaimed audio interfaces, studio monitors, and keyboard controllers. Code 25 Firmware Update for Mac v1.3.0: Software Updates. Product Version Date File Download.

Hi. Firstly, GarageBand is designed to NOT allow you to use any control surfaces (read knobs and faders) other than the iControl. There is a little 3rd party application called GarageRemote (google it) which will allow you to control the transport buttons from the Axiom. If this is of interest, there are full installation instructions on the M-Audio website. You will find it in one of the sticky's in the forum in the keyboard controller section... look for GarageBand. I have never used it so cannot comment about its use. So unfortunately you cannot use the axioms knobs and faders.....
The pads will work fine, I believe the factory default setting for pads 1-8 are C3, D3, etc meaning they correspond with the equivalent of middle C and that octave of keys. For making beats you will have to experiment with the position of the key range using the transpose button on the axiom.
Enigma is a editing program that allows you to set up and control templates or presets for your axiom and various DAW's. Unfortunately, this is of no use as GarageBand cannot utilize any preset functions.
You do not need any other software to use the Axiom with GB. Just plug and play!!
Cheers. G.

M-audio Enigma For Mac

So, I Recently purchased a m audio axiom 61 keyboard to be able to use with logic on my macbook pro that is currently running snow leopard. The keyboard does not show up on my computer when I connect it through a usb cable, which it should with no problem. I tried hooking it up to a few different machines and I realized that the problem was that I was running snow leopard. Any machine that I tried hooking up to that was running snow leopard, the keyboard would not show up. However, computers that were running like 10.5.8 leopard, it worked with no problem.
Is there a work around to get the keyboard to work with my computer without having to downgrade to regular leopard again?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
