Reviews around controller (5.00 of 5)

  • This is by far the most Dynamic Midi Controller available at this low price
  • When I'm in the middle of a recording it simply stops working and none of the keys is functional, sometimes I even have to restart the computer to make it work ( and I have tested it on 3 different computers ) , despite that it is a great controller with very good features, it's a shame that the low quality hardware spoils what should have been a perfect controller
  • Even thought I love this controller the only reason for the 3 stars is that it loses the MIDI connection from time to time

Reviews around price (5.00 of 5)

  • In this regard the Nektar's integration with stock Logic instruments is better than my NI S49 MK2).Let's face it, unless you're a professional musician performing on stage, software integration is what really makes a midi controller useful, so in that case this is one of the best priced options you could make IMHO.
  • I'd been looking at this controller for some time due to it's relatively inexpensive price for
  • Very affordable price for 49 key MIDI controller with pads, faders and other envelope control features.

Reviews around pad (5.00 of 5)

  • Not the best pads but they aren't horrible
  • As people have stated, it would have been really nice if the pads were touch sensitive
  • I haven't really played around with the drum pads enough to know how they work, but when I first got the keyboard, whenever I would touch one, the light would change from green to red

Reviews around feel (5.00 of 5)

  • As for function, the M-Audio had a better key feel but they were virtually the same in features.
  • This midi keyboard has a great fey-press feel and is simple to install to FL Studio
  • I like the option of drum pads, the feel of the keys is great, the transprt buttins are nice to have, & the mod & pitch bend wheel are serious quality
