Wow that is interesting. Since Akai bothered to update thier site a little they should have a least bothered to update our 500's OS while they where there.

o ok so they didnt, i thought they might have updated the OS guess not.

di u ever experience problems where you noticed it messing up and you havent even reached 32 polyphony?

i wonder why they changed that on their site then.
