-Session Pro is a class-compliant device. This means Windows XP and Mac OS X computers
will automatically recognize and install X-Session Pro once the controller is connected to
the computer—you are not required to install any drivers or perform any installation procedures.
Once the X-Session Pro drivers are installed, you may need to configure your DJ software to
accept MIDI signals from the controller. This is usually done through your software’s control panel.
Refer to your program’s user guide to learn how to do this.

Advanced Windows XP users
who require multi-client
support (i.e., using the
controller with more than one
application at the same time)
will need to install the special
X-Session Pro multi-client
drivers. Please refer to the
X-Session Pro Quick Start
Guide for
installation instructions.
While X-Session Pro may look like a traditional DJ mixer,
keep in mind that all of the buttons, knobs, and faders are
actually sending out MIDI data. This means that you can
use X-Session Pro to control more than just DJ applications.
For example, the buttons, sliders, and knobs can be used to
control a virtual instrument or a DAW sequencer. Refer to
your software’s user guide to learn how to map X-Session Pro’s
controls to various functions within the application.
