Reviews

perfect mobile keys
I'm using it to edit music notation in Musescore 4 on a 14in Macbook. The small footprint means it can always be in my backpack and I can write music anywhere I can sit now.
The touch of the keys is actually musically usable if you needed to play a line on a gig. So even though I'm using it for "data entry" I can still groove out on it with ideas.

It's Adorable and Works on Linux
Needed a compact keyboard for MIDI input on a custom studio project. This one very much delivered. I don't use many of the built-in features, but it does an excellent job with the ones I needed. Most importantly, it works on Linux Mint 22 with only a small bit of setup to do.

Worth the Price and more
Perfect for my songwriting, I can just put in my back pack and visit a client for a session wherever they maybe.. This piece of gear is the begining of my mobile rig. The world of recording has changed and I need to be where the talent is.. This gear assist in that journey
Music background: Producer, Artiste and Songwriter
Just what I needed.
It does what it is supposed to do. The size is excellent. Lowering/raising octaves is straightforward. Ableton had no problem auto-recognizing it. I would buy it again.
