Has anyone used the m-audio hammer pro 88 controller?

Oh, I’ve just seen this post from 2018 advising not to use usb in Windows. Not sure if this is still the case

Is it OK to connect midi controller via USB?

All I can say is- I don’t. Windows gets real flaky real fast with USB inputs. I run my controllers into the MIDI ins on my Fosucrite. That also means I need a merger but it’s worth it to have everything only on one USB input. I don’t know that you’d ever have issues, a lot of people don’t. But doing it via MIDI is rock solid.
