My only wish is that they they added a MIDI OUT on it so I could use it as a dedicated controller w/o the use of a computer. Oh well, still awesome! :) close [-]

I bought the gear so that I would have something small and on the go.

The keys feel good and I love the two wheel controllers and the transpose buttons. What are the limitations then? For starters the level of velocity feels like is definitely limited and sometimes can transmit the wrong level. I have also experienced short notes feedback when playing several keys at once. To be fair, I don't know if it is a communication issue between the gear and my software (Logic Pro). All I know is that I don't experience the same with my bigger controllers. Having said that, I found it handy enough to use it for some of the synth leads in one of my albums. Nothing like having the ability to use it almost anywhere you can bring your laptop to. close [-]
