IK Multimedia has released an important firmware update for the iRig Keys I/O series of keyboard controllers/audio interfaces, introducing significant enhancements and new features to improve and extend the iRig Keys I/O functionality.
The new firmware introduces a preset that gives Ableton Live users full command of their performance with plug-and-play simplicity. All MIDI mappings and connections are automatically established, taking guesswork out of the equation and bringing the creative versatility of the controller to a higher level.
Plus, the new firmware now makes it possible to use the drum pads to control the mute function of the tracks, for a more live performance-focused approach.
Other changes in include adjustable drum pad sensitivity for dynamic and responsive beatmaking and easier preset navigation using the PROG Up/Down buttons on the iRig Keys I/O. It is now also possible to keep all LED lights of the iRig Keys I/O gently lit up, so that the controls are easily identifiable in dark environments.
The firmware update is now available to download from the IK User Area at no charge.
