Miditech Garagekey mini Reviews

Miditech Garagekey mini

first, it's not for learning to play the piano. It is not intended to imitate piano playing. In terms of handling, it is more like a toy. At the same time, it is very convenient for composing in places where there is little space. For example, I take my MPC One and Miditech Garagekey mini next to the sofa and my ideas are quickly recorded. The octave change buttons are in just the right place. If they were somewhere habitual, the risk of accidentally pressing them would be high. Regarding recording, it should be noted that the velocity differences remain larger than usual. Some may even like it. The appearance and build quality are nice, everything shines and inspires confidence. What's important: you get a 45 cm long thing with three octaves.

Between typing on the screen of your ipad or this...

It’s better to use this keyboard.

But... its really toy plastic squeeshy no sensitivity feeling like.

And if you have thick fingers, just forget this.

But it’s usable!

Great

Great for the price, the keys are responsive and it all works just fine as you would expect

Good keyboard for beginners

This keyboard is great for a beginner. It`s small which has it good and bad sides. My main problem was that the keys was too thin.

Best portable 3 octave midi keyboard

Fits into default size backpack. Keys same as in Microkorg.

Perfect for beginners and people on a budget

this little keyboard has gotten me through most of my student life, and for the price that's amazing!

The keys are very small and they are a bit mushy, but they get the job done.

Don't rely too much on the pressure sensitivity as it is not the easiest to use, i usually end up modifying the velocity in my DAW.

All in all, probably one of the best purchases i have ever made, it has lasted me around 4 years and i still use it every day!

Decent portable midi keyboard

I'm not a keyboard player, I play guitar but there was a time when I had bunch of business trips and I needed something that I could fit in my luggage case - this one qualified. I played for some time with it - over all it does exactly what it should, but due to my big hands and its small keys it wasn't the most convenient thing for me. If you need something small, pay attention on the keys size, especially if you have big hands - I regretted that I didn't by the other model which has standard key size.

Nice mini key for the price

Nice mini keys.i bought it to work the midi on cubase..

very comapact and does the it`s job..

The software bundle is a bit of a hassle, as it requires downloading the softwares from various sites for registration...

Pretty good little usb keyboard

At first I tought that is broken, but when I put right drivers works perfectly.

Cons:

Touch sensetivity is hard. Need lot of practice to play it right.

Light, cheap and small

I was needing a MIDI keyboard to use it with my computer, but just to launch samples or playing little parts, so I was searching something really small, and also cheap because I didn't want to spend lot of money on a midi keyboard.

The only thing I find a little bit troublesome is the fact that on this keyboard there are little thin keys, so if you want to play basic and simple notes, that's ok. But if you want to play something more complex you should consider a keyboard with standard keys.

However I found it useful because with thin keys I have more octaves, having more triggers, and I can also shift through octaves because on the rear there are two buttons. But I find that these buttons aren't fast to reach when you are playing.

To use it with Logic to compose, it's simply great.

usb midi keyboard

These is plain and simple, highly portable usb midi keyboard which I use with various daw's.

Build quality is great and gives the impression of durability. Usage is simple, just plug and play. I really like 37 keys design, it's very useful for my needs.

I would like them to have more controls, but for these price that isn't something what I would/can expect.

Bottom line is that these is great, highly portable and versatile, reliable and useful usb midi keyboard for the price.

Nice and small keyboard !!

They are really nice to learn or for recording.

comes with midi usb. Nice!!!
