BUMP
someone must know. ive just got my mpk49. i took it out of the box, plugged in the mpk and loaded ableton. i went to preferences and selected mpk49 in the first drop down menu. then nothing else happened. i dont even think that my computer registers the mpk at all. how do i fix this? are there any drivers i need or something?

You should try downloading the latest drivers from Akai, then see if your computer will recognize the controller. If it doesn't, then you'll want to contact Akai technical support.
