  Characteristics

  The Novation Remote 25 SL MkII is a 25 key MIDI controller for all types of uses. It comes in a few different sizes in terms of the amount of keys available, with this one being the smallest of the bunch. The controller has connections for MIDI input and thru, with two separate MIDI out channels. It also has 1/4" connections for both an expression and sustain pedal, as well as a USB port. It can be powered via either the USB port or with a nine volt power supply.

  Utilization

  Using the Novation Remote 25 SL MkII overall isn't difficult, but learning everything that it has to offer is going to take a bit of use. I really just scratched the surface with this controller, but it's got as much control as you could ask for from a MIDI controller. In addition to the fairly standard controls, it has eight faders, a unique toggle pitch controller, transport buttons, and assignable parameter controls. The feel of the keys isn't the best but isn't the worst by far. It's easy enough to play, I'll say that. I haven't seen the manual, but it might not be a bad idea if you've just bought this and want to learn everything about it.

  Overall Opinion

  The Novation Remote 25 SL MkII is among the best MIDI controllers of this size that I've used. It also comes in 49 and 61 key models, so don't let the size of this model deter you. It's pretty much the perfect MIDI controller for anyone who wants a ton of control and options to work with, but if you're after a simple controller, this isn't it. For me at home I have an M-Audio Keystation 88 Pro, which is less in depth as I don't necessarily need all the controls this has to offer. Having said this, many people certainly will need the parameters and welcome the in depth control. It's of course going to be a bit more expensive than your average controller because of this, but it's definitely not your average MIDI controller...

  Characteristics

  My choice was motivated by its number of integrated controllers, including the drum pad.
  
  The fact that so many companies followed the technology innovation on communication hardware.

  Utilization

  (I do not use it much). Using fine but attention should not ignore the manual for some time if you're going back into the courts to control the beast.
  
  I have done a calibration of the pressure pads.

  Overall Opinion

  I took the model m-audio axiom pro-25 for budget reasons because at the time when the innovation and the m-audio are out, the price of m-audio was lower.
  
  I have not tested the m-audio pro 25.
  
  
  
  I am very pleased with the innovation, indeed it is confirmed by the PA stores.

  Carriable keyboard with a lot of controllers, personally I thought the automap was great if you know how to control it and its size is same config ....
