I do not use mine for a midi controller, but according to the Casio website it is a midi controller for Windows, Mac and iPad. "Casio continues the tradition of providing "class compliant" USB connectivity on Workstation Keyboards. This allows Casio Workstation Keyboards to be used with Mac or Windows computers without the need to download drivers. Class Compliant USB MIDI also allows Workstation Keyboards to be used as a controller for the Apple iPad by using Apple's Camera Connection Kit. "

I used it with a Mac and an iPad, but the description on Amazon says it is also compatible with Windows programs. I believe MIDI information and thus the devices that send and receive it is cross-platform. Look in the "Technical Details" area on the Amazon page for the specifications.

I use this keyboard with garageband (macbook) and mixcraft (pc/ window 7). I dont think it makes a big different.

You have to have an app going. Garage band works well with it. It is basically a small midi keyboard.

There are several MIDI interfaces for IPad. I use the Behringer IS202. Irig makes one as well

Yes it is! I use mine with Logic Pro. It may not automatically map to all DAWs. But it can be mapped manually to any of them! Just make sure you download the latest firmware to your computer. Remember, it's a basic midi controller! So it should work with any music software. Hope that helps you out!

MIDI keyboards are not proprietary to the OS (in most cases). Whether any MIDI keyboard (knobs, sliders) is compatible, largely depends on what DAW or software (cubase garageband, logic, reason, fruityloops, etc.) you are using in most cases. So, with the being said, my intuition tells me OS 10.9 supports MIDI since 10.8 did. My copy of Call of Duty says its only compatible with PS2, it doesn't mean it doesn't work on PS4. I doubt M-AUDIO had a magic ball that showed them OS 10.9. So, yes this will work just make sure whatever software you're using works with it. Some keyboards are made with DAW's in mind.

Yes, it works very well with all the instruments I've tried in Garage Band. It's my primary practice set-up when I'm away from a studio: USB connection to MacBook Pro running Garage Band.
