## Questions & Answers

**Q: I bought one but code did not work , where can I complain. They sent another code still not working! So frustrated**
A: You can complain anywhere. At work, to your family, even out loud to yourself in public. 
But I would go to the akai website. You should be able to contact the company directly

**Q: Does is work with FL studio**
A: M-Audio support here! This will work perfectly in FL Studio. If you have any other questions, please feel free to call or email us using the contact information on maudio.com/support.

**Q: Can this connect to an iPad?**
A: Connecting to an iPad works with the proper adapter cable. GarageBand will work with the keyboard, but there isn’t support in that program to map the various knobs & keys.  You may get different results with other midi compatible programs on the iPad.

**Q: Why is there a 100 dollar version and 130 dollar?**
A: I ordered 100 one and it came used
