The microKEY25 is part of Korg's compact family of USB MIDI keyboards featuring the velocity-sensitive Natural Touch mini-keyboard; acclaimed on instruments such as the microKORG XL and microARRANGER. The microKEY25 features excellent portability, allowing you to enjoy playing and producing with a great-feeling keyboard even when you're away from home. It features an expressive joystick as traditionally found on larger controllers, and provides simultaneous control of multiple parameters at the same time, along with control of the built-in tempo-synced arpeggiator function. That' not all; the microKEY25 can be powered directly from your iPad via the Camera Connection Kit, and it can be immediately used to control MIDI-capable apps such as Korg' iMS-20 (sold seperately).

To get you up and running right off the bat, the microEY25 also includes plenty of software, including KORG KONTROL Editor, Korg M1 Le; Applied Acoustics Systems' Strum Acoustic Session, Lounge Lizard Session, and Ultra Analog Session; Toontrack's EzDrummer Lite; as well as a discount for Ableton's Live, Live Suite, and Live LE DAW software
