question

Could this be configured to control software such as lightroom or premiere pro?
Asked by: Blair C.
This is feedback from users of this product.As long as you do not install the Korg MIDI USB drivers, it has the potential to be mapped to different DAWs. However with that being said, Korg as a manufacturer does not guarantee this controller to work with anything that does not support their drivers.
