Good basic controller

I needed a basic keyboard controller to add sounds to my recorded tracks. I don't need a lot of extra features to clutter things up. This fits the bill nicely. Simple, easy to use, and does what it's supposed to.

Great buy

If you're looking for a small MIDI controller with plenty of features, this is a good value. The USB interface works seamlessly with my Mac. The unit is really portable. The portamento and pitch wheels are really handy. The only minor issue is that the keys feel a bit squishy and cheap. But it's an acceptable trade-off.

Our Customers Say...

“When it came time to start from scratch with the studio, I had a lot of questions. The Sales Engineers I've worked with are really friendly and patient, and the guidance they provided was invaluable; they basically helped build the studio.”
