Spark Your Creativity with Ignite

Bundled with Keystation Mini 32 is AIR Music Technology's Ignite software. With this intuitive music creation platform, you can capture your ideas quickly with professional results.

Once connected to your computer, the key parameters will be automatically assigned, or mapped, to the front panel controllers. This tight integration provides an out-of-the-box solution that simply works—with no additional setup to perform.
