M-Audio suggests you also check the minimum system requirements for any software applications you plan on using with your new M-Audio hardware, as they may be greater than the above.

➜IMPORTANT: Connect your headphones or powered speakers to ProKeys Sono. Sounds created by ProKeys Sono and from software used with it will play through the main outputs on ProKeys Sono–not the outputs of your computer’s built-in soundcard.

A Note About System Updates: Please check the M-Audio driver download page at http://www.m-audio.com/drivers for the availability of an updated driver before you decide to install operating system updates. Before new M-Audio device drivers are released, they are tested for use with the operating system versions that are available at that time. When updates for an operating system are released by Microsoft or Apple, all M-Audio device drivers have to be re-tested and possibly updated to ensure proper operation. M-Audio recommends refraining from installing operating system updates until a driver has been posted to the M-Audio website for that specific operating system.
