Hi

I purchased an m-audio keystation 61 and, after setup, I now have to select monitor in on my midi tracks if I want to hear what I'm playing whilst recording midi, and then change it back to auto when I want to hear playback.

I've never had to do this with any other midi keyboard controller that I've purchased (m-audio axiom pro 49 + axiom air 32 + keystation 32, akai APC 25 amongst others)

Is there something I can do to stop this from happening?

If you arm your tracks you don't need to set monitor to "in", but rather you can set that as "auto".
