pylonbitch Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 it's a good deal, but personally, i would go with something with more assignable knobs or faders. what's it for dude? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benc812 Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 ok i have the same type of keyboard as this one. it's a good deal monetarily and does the job, but it's not spectacular in any way. definitely agree that it would be more useful if it had more assignable capabilities. if you're just trying to play stuff on the keyboard as a means of MIDI triggering a sampler or vst, go for it. it just won't give you that real-time sound manipulation thing that's way more fun, in my opinion. also, the keys are a little springy for my taste, but it's not bad enough to really throw me off, at least. hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba69 Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 yeah it would be good if you already had another knob source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chax Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 if you don't have a keyboard this could be good but most of the knobs and faders will be useless because they can't easily be mapped to plugins, vsts, etc. if you pair it up with a novation nocturn it could be extremely useful and a quality combination.
