KeyLab Essential 61 : Unimpressed by the keys and pads, but SOFTWARE VALUE!

Overall good keyboard with good functions. Extremely good software value!!! That's really the best thing about it to be honest. Weightless keys are really not pleasant to play. They don't have enough force to bounce back well like good synth keys, but they don't stay down enough to feel like weighted keys either. Just overall not the best key experience. Pads are also underwhelming. Sensitivity to low velocity hits is quite bad. I've found that my AKAI MPK mini keys are better. All the controls are pretty good, do the job, and work great with analog lab. I wish i just got the smaller version of this to use with all the arturia plugins, and got a 61 keys standalone keyboard with better keys to play.
