  • Nice Keyboard Action

    As reviewed by Dave S. on 10/27/2008

    I have had this for 3 weeks and used it live 3 times so far. Wow, I really like this keyboard. Specifically, the action is perfect. I normally use an M-Audio 88 Key weighted keyboard for my main work, but I wanted a 2nd keyboard specifically for lead work. Sorry, but a weighted keyboard for lead work is a bit too hard for me. And the typical non-weighted synth-like keyboards feel like a TOY, which makes me feel sick. Fortunately, I think M-Audio designed this keyboard JUST FOR ME! Yay! The snappy kickback-action is wonderful, no kidding. Also, the keyboard is so light, and because of that, I can get by with a lightweight bag for toting it (something I wouldn't try with my 88 key keyboard). The things I would like, however are: 1.) More buttons which I can use for patch-changes. Like maybe 50 buttons just for that! 2.) I'd like to be able to transmit on more than 4 channels simultaneously. Why not all 16? What are we trying to do: save some trees or something? 3.) I'd also like to have a THRU connection. The fact that M-Audio has nixxed these is a mystery to me. I guess they don't think anyone plays live anymore ... only in their home studios? 4.) Along with the 16 channels output of MIDI, I'd like to have multiple midi-outs, and the ability to program which channels go to which MIDI out. 5.) Hey, while we're fooling with MIDI connectors, how about giving us 2 or more MIDI in's which do a MERGE, so we don't need to have a merge box when using another keyboard with this one? Overall, I like this keyboard!

  • loved it until it stopped working...

    As reviewed by daniel on 12/21/2010

    well i thought this was a great purchase when i bought it! but after about a year it started glitching out on me! none of the drum pads work. some of the keys wont work or sometimes "stick" as they call it. my friend has the exact same one as i do and he experiences some of the same problems, but his will transpose abruptly to a half step down. this thing sucks all in all. it would be the best deal out there if it didn't stop working on you... if you do you your homework you will see that there are hundreds, probably even thousands of cases just like this. i've tried resetting it but nothing changes. and you can not download any new drivers for it either because its just a plug and play. if you get this get a extended warranty and hope for the best. i wish m-audio would give us all who wasted our money on this POS a refund!!!

  • Great Controller BUT...

    As reviewed by ChuckEy on 8/29/2010

    I've had this controller for about 1 year and 8 months now. It did what it was supposed to, never really put it through much rigors however within exactly 4 months purchase my G# nad D keys stopped playing. Now they play whenever they feel like... I enjoyed this controller and it's easy plug and play and user friendly interface. The keys felt great and the look of it blended well. The pads come in quite handy when sequencing or layering drum patterns. The knobs, pitch bend and modulation controllers feel smooth. Never really got a chance to explore its many capabilites so I'm quite interested in purchasing another like it, BUT with all the complaints of the same problem I've faced i'm a little skeptical. There is no way to really know if it is going to happen, but OVERALL it is a controller I enjoyed and would recommend other than that major problem. Don't expect to get reliable customer support either in regards to said issue.
