When is Studio One going to get up to date with M-Audio DirectLink Support? Everyone else is!

This is very annoying because even when i go through the complete long-winded procedure to tell S1 how my Oxygen 49 IV controller works, IT NEVER REMEMBERS IT from one session to the next. Aaaagh!

Please get on the same page all the other big DAWS are already on and provide the support for this. It sure would make life AND composing a LOT simpler (and more enjoyable). I spent a lot of money on this controller and would REALLY enjoy using it to its full capacity.

Thx for listening.

Hi Mark.  Sounds bit strange.  I have added controllers like the Alto Professional live 61 midi controller and Roland A800 pro controller keyboard with no issues.  Neither of these are listed when I added them and I had to map it all in Studio One to get controls connected to synths.  One thing I have noticed with Studio One v5, which is unlike v4, is that you can no longer start a song with the controller disconnected and connect it mid song.

thx for replying busker.

I've already setup the controller 3x in Studio one, and every time i go to use it on a new project...the settings have not been saved/stored. I have to re-program the controller again & again...VERY frustrating. And to be honest, NOT something i'd expect from PreSonus frankly. With all the stuff that's been added to the program since v3, i would think that keeping the controller list current would have been of more concern than it apparently is for them. It's not like i'm using some obscure controller, M-Audio controllers are very common, and this is their latest version of the Oxygen model.

At the very least, having the program be capable is understanding the M-Audio DirectLink Support would avoid them having to keep up with all the current models.

thx for your time.

I would like to follow up on this aswell. 
I have an M-Audio Oxygen61 MKIV midi keyboard, and while all the other big DAW's out there has support for directlink, it seems like this is not a priority for presonus. 
For reference, here is M-Audio webpage where supported daw's are listed.

When will studio one developers consider this?

I also would like to see the DirectLink support in Studio One.

All the fancy features of my M-Audio Axiom 61 (2nd Gen) do not work. So i have a lot of useless buttons, which can not be mapped by the user.

Please Presonus, make it happen. I am sure there are quite a few of your customers with a DirectLink device. You'll make them very happy if you pull it off.
