Good keyboard but no Expression input
I was happy with this keyboard until I realised there is no expression pedal input. Mapping the data entry slider to expression is simple enough but is no substitute when live control is needed and you're already using both hands.
Decent Budget Keyboard
This keyboard covers all the basics you need to start making beats; keys, pitch bend, mod wheel, and some buttons. The keys are a bit shorter than real piano keys, and become increasingly hard to press down at the top. The connection is a standard USB-B, but I would've liked to see a type C port. But for the price, you really can't complain.
Great compact keyboard
Great simple compact keyboard fits my desk perfectly, well made and with free software. Has enough features without being overwhelming and keys have a great weighted feel, would highly recommend.
Super portable and decent key weight
This is the most portable 61 key midi keyboard I have ever used. The included free software (Ableton Lite) was a nice bonus too.
Just what I needed
I was looking for a simple midi keyboard, and it suits all my needs. I was worried about how the keys were going to be, but they feel really nice (I’m not a professional keyboard player, though). The added DAW integration (Ableton live in my case) is a nice addition, altough I haven’t been able to assign the fader to whatever midi function I want, for some reason.
The best in this price range
The best keyboard on the market in terms of price and quality, soft keys. It's a pleasure to play.
Basic piano that can do anything.
it's easy to use. just connect your piano to your computer with just one USB.
Fulfills the necessary goal
My cousin wants to learn piano. He bought this. He is happy. The product is functioning as intended.
Not worth your money
Semi-weighted keys, yeah right.
- Horrible feeling keys
- Pedal jack input slightly ejects it's input. Still receives signal but the jack gets unplugged very easily.
Mod wheel and pitchbend wheels send out instructions on their own. My keyboard has been playing out of tune for half a year now.
Does the job!
I’m no keys player but I’ve used this midi controller in my studio every day for about 2 years and it’s never let me down.
I’ve used it for laying down pad layers and percussion parts mainly as well as the odd melody line. I like the key action, it feels comfortable to play. It has just enough features to not be confusing.
If you need a midi controller that gets the job done, then this is the one for you!
