Some more instructions at this website ( www.alesis.com/kb/article/2046 ) . Basically, after plugging into USB, you need to choose the keboard as input in Ableton preferences.

Then you create a MIDI instrument track to "accept" that input.

I am typing this without having Ableton in front of me. I could verify those steps later, but I think that this will help you get started.

The manufacturer will let you download drivers from their site. After installing the appropriate software your DAW should recognize the controller automatically. (I'm not sure, since i don't use windows, your specific keyboard, or Ableton.)
