Simplicity=Perfection

The keystation 61 es is simply keys used to control sounds on your pc. I use the keystation es for hiphop production with fl studio 6 and an AKAI MPD16. The keystation 61 es is very sturdy and user friendly. I also use another keystation 61 es with my Motif ES rack,Also a good combination. Overall the Keystation ES is a good piece of equipment to use with hardware and software sequencers.

Great simple controller for the price

M-Audio gets flack at times for cheap build quality, but this unit is not of that ilk. I use this as my main controller on stage, and it holds up to the rigors of road-abuse quite well. The key action is very nice, with just the right amount of spring to them. The only gripe I have with this unit is that it does not come with an AC adapter for us USB challenged stage musicians...but a quick trip to the local electronics store and $10 later for a universal AC adapter sets that straight. Overall, a good value by M-Audio.

M-AUDIO THE GREAT

Forget all the negative remarks that you've heard about this midi keyboard. I've owned this model for well over three years now. It is still flawless. It has been dropped and exposd to all sort of conditions and everything still works on it. Wish it had more sliders and knobs thought.
