Super Simple Compact Powerhouse
For someone who is looking to make music on the go, looking for your first midi controller or are on a budget and want quality? Then look no further!
Does everything I need it to and its so light, travelling with it is an absolute dream!
Highly recommend it!
Just what I wanted
I wanted a small, portable, lightweight midi keyboard and I love it! :)
It's my second. Love it.
Travelled around the world with my first one. My wife (not me, I swear, lol) broke the usb connector on my last one so I ended up trying other controllers. Ended up buying this same M-Audio. 32 keys for such a small controller is awesome. I love this thing.
Rather handy keyboard
32 mini keys that feel a bit spongy but are still playable in feel and size. Great compact keyboard for travel (fits inside cabin luggage) but lacks a bit in features.
The pitch bend and mod change are not in wheels, and there is no semitone transpose, only octaves. The volume parameter button is quite interesting as this can affect the incoming MIDI velocity, but I would rather have had the aforementioned details instead.
All-in-all, good for the price and good for travel. Probably most keys one can fit in this size and have it still be playable.
Just what i need
As a modest amateur guitar player and home studio beginner, i am very happy with this M-Audio Mini 32 MK3, which i use to create some basic bass and drums lines and 32 keys + a few basic buttons are more than enough for my personal use. I spend more time to play guitar than mixing and mastering sounds. But if you are more advanced in home studio, you will probably need a more sofisticated keyboard. It also depends on what kind if music you like...
Pros : easy to use, just plug and play, good value for the money.
Cons : nothing for the use i make...
