Thanks! I'm not sure if a person needs a monitor connected except maybe to get a different propestive on the data. Unless a monitor would be useful for mastering purposes? I'll see if the MasterLink has a connector for a monitor.
Actually, you have to use usb to run it through the program Ak.Sys (available on akai's website free) on your comupter for monitoring. You cant just plug a monitor into it. You guys are getting the dps confused with the roland 2480
