FEATURES- Session KeyStudio - The Make-Music-Now Keyboard Studio
       Play hundreds of instrument sounds, compose and record with the 
        included KeyStudio keyboard and Session software!
       M-Audio Session KeyStudio is the make-music-now keyboard studio for 
        the PC. Its combination of the KeyStudio 49-note USB keyboard and 
        included Session music software gives you much more flexibility 
        than standalone keyboards that have a limited number of built-in 
        sounds. With Session KeyStudio, you can use the keyboard to play 
        hundreds of different instrument sounds--including piano, organ, 
        synths and more--in the included Session software. Setup is 
        simple--just install and launch the software, plug in the keyboard 
        and included high-performance audio interface, and start playing. 
       Session KeyStudio also turns your PC into a full-featured recording 
        studio that's so easy to use, you'll be laying tracks and mixing 
        professional-sounding songs in no time.
* Professional 49-note keyboard
   Whether you're just getting started or playing professionally, one touch 
   will tell you that the 49-note KeyStudio keyboard is a pleasure to play. 
   That's because the KeyStudio is built with the same M-Audio technology 
   used by music professionals on stage and in studios around the world. It 
   works seamlessly with most music software, including Session and 
   GarageBand.
* Play piano, synths and more
   Use the KeyStudio keyboard to play Session's huge virtual instrument 
   library, which includes everything from classic sounds like pianos and 
   basses to pop- and rock-inspired synths and sound effects. Session even 
   helps you find and audition the right instruments, whether the sound 
   you're looking for is a bold concert grand or funky hip-hop synth. Just 
   select a sound and start playing. And if you want to expand your sonic 
   palette even further, M-Audio sells a variety of virtual instruments 
   including realistic emulations of vintage synths.
* Create songs in minutes
   In addition to putting hundreds of cool sounds at your fingertips, the 
   included Session software transforms your PC into a full-featured 
   studio. Since the software was designed to be easy and intuitive, you 
   can go from playing to recording with the click of a button. When you 
   start a new song or track, Session automatically configures and guides 
   you through the creative process. And when you want a new sound or 
   effect, Session helps you find just the right one. It's that simple.
* Mix-and-match loop production
   Loops--short, repeating audio clips--are the creative building blocks of 
   today's music. Session comes with hundreds of professionally recorded 
   loops that you can use to create instant backing tracks. What's more, 
   Session makes it easy to audition loops until you find just the perfect 
   ones for your next masterpiece. It's as simple as drag and drop.
* Mixmaster in the house
   For the finishing touch, Session has everything you need to turn your 
   jams, remixes and mash-ups into polished, professional-sounding 
   productions. Sweeten a piano line with reverb and echo, give your bass 
   guitar some vintage grit with distortion effects and put some serious 
   thump in your drum loops with powerful equalization and compression 
   tools.
