  themssl's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " A keyboard comprehensive"

  Characteristics

  The presence of pots and faders

  Utilization

  Pleasant to the touch, fully programmable, a bit complicated for my use.
  
  The interface is certainly useful, but I hate small embedded computer!

  Overall Opinion

  Quality side, nothing to say, although I have no comparison ...
  
  What I like most is that he has a great touch, and is compact.
  
  What bothers me a little today, is the multitude of gadgets that I do not use (especially computers), and I admit that 25 is rated for a small main keyboard.
  
  
  
  possible exchange against interest me more ^ ^

  Thiazsch's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  the price and the number and variety of controllers.
  
  
  
  midi + usb connector

  Utilization

  touch is far from the semi-heavy but for a 2 octave range that is very nice, very sturdy + aftertouch!
  
  
  
  manual very clear
  
  
  
  no problem with the configuration
  
  
  
  and very good accessibility for MIDI channels, program change and templates

  Overall Opinion

  I said 2003, it's about, I bought used, via AF also I think, I remember clearly against the price: 180 €!
  
  
  
  1 knob had some problems when I got it, and since I broke a fader, but I must say that I lug around a little loose in my bag, however the format is perfect at this level there (I think I compared the dimensions with a newer model which would not fit precisely).
  
  
  
  Before this I had an evolution (with a lot of octaves), for the price, a keyboard / controller very correct, but in comparison, both the quality of the keyboard like controller is just incomparable.
  
  
  
  What I like about him is therefore:
  
  - Its size: it comes in most suitcases, it is very compact (number of pots, encoders, faders, buttons, XY, ..)
  
  - Build quality: the keyboard and touch controllers and is also dropped several times and I can say that I do not spare much, but still a loyal companion ^ ^
  
  
  
  quality / price ratio totally excellent
  
  
  
  with experience, I will have much if I could have purchased before

  wyz's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Perfect"

  Characteristics

  The amount of control, presets, USB port.

  Utilization

  The keyboard for me, but I'm not keyboardist, guitarist but for the use, that is almost perfect, it saves me significant time to control my DAW (Cubase 5), small flats, c ' are the system checks for a beginner to noon, I haven 't found the manual very explicit,
  
  but ultimately, it allows for configurations at the top, and it has only two controls affect change presets without getting lost in the configuration.

  Overall Opinion

  I use it for a year, for my first control surface, that is tip top, I wanted a pro m audio axiom 49, but more expensive than the remote.
  
  I blame this machine, that is its configuration when it starts much hassle for me, it was an obstacle course. That's the negative.
  
  The good news, the buttons are of good quality, the touch controls are very nice. compactness, for my part is very convenient for the clutter on the workspace (for my part I put on the desk drawer for the keyboard under the computer, a small adjustment of the height of the it is that is nickel), for transportation, it lacks a cover, a small craft is being studied in my R & D center
  
  And yes I would do this choice despite the galley at the beginning, this time was largely profitable both in terms of time money.

  Virtual Decadence's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  Motivation for choice
  
  
  
  - 8 encoders, 8 knobs, 8 sliders, 24 buttons.
  
  - Price (euros 355 bought at the Apple Expo 2003)
  
  - General for manufacturing quality
  
  - Systm template
  
  - Connection used: USB (but everything else is).
  
  - It would be an adapter included AIM but ... (It works well with a standard adapter, otherwise I get good feed it with a USB card Cardbus / USB on my powerbook but not with the standard USB port amientation the mac).

  Utilization

  - Keyboard super enjoyable (from a M-Audio is the day and night)
  
  - Easy installation (USB)
  
  - Simple configuration with Reason and Logic.
  
  - Ergonomics gnrale at the top.
  
  - Navigation between the templates easy.
  
  - LCD back-light super convenient (depending on display presets with names in the clear).
  
  
  
  With no surface CONTRL ddi I use mainly to control Logic (comprhension environmental ncessaire the template tlchargeable Logic is despicable, there is better ).
  
  Excellent also with Reason and Live.
  
  
  
  NOTE: The Remote 25 ncessite a small program that translates MIDI data to make it work with standalone instrument Native on Mac OS X. But it works well.
  
  
  
  11/2004 EDIT: Advice for Logic users: try the remote with the software LC-Xmu ($ 38 online at the site of its publisher http://www.opuslocus.com/lcxmu/). This mule a Logic Control (no it not your motorized fader opration by the simple mind) and it is a pure delight with the Remote 25. It changes your life from a hacking environment.
  
  You have access to change your bank to use faders or encoders on all tranches, plugins ...
  
  
  
  EDIT 26/05/05: Novation provides a software editor for Remote SERIES. trs well done, this life-changing piece of software for edit these templates. You win a lot of time and can dsormais archive on the computer Manir simpler than a management tool sysex.

  Overall Opinion

  I use it for a year. I like the ergonomics gnrale and navigation. The touch keyboard as well.
  
  Before I had a variety of keyboard in the same genre, with a Radium 61 M-Audio, which seems to me fade depuisr (touch the keyboard and the faders are horrible, and then have it when non-volatile presets same practice).
  
  
  
  Problem: the mini joystick for modulation / pitch has a spring that has dboit after one year. We had to open the bte to replace and he could see redfaire any time.
  
  
  
  With exprience ... I would do this choice. Except when they have finally released a version 49 or 61 keys.
  
  Or I will opt for the audio version but it existed in firewire and not USB (which can RVer).
  
  
  
  Qualitprix excellent report that I saw the promo benefitted. Otherwise it is trs good retail price.
  
  
  
  EDIT 26/05/05: Most recent internship pub Announces Bass Station (in plugin pasen hardware) comes with all the balls .. Remote for purchasing the two sparment that much :-) .. a is the blow even more now.
  
  
  
  EDIT 20/07/2005: I wanted to sell to buy more but I can not help myself dfaire. So I go up the overall score. Especially with the last edition of software patch that makes life easier and the price that Whereas down.

  Dr Driller's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  MIDI channel 16, each control in a config channel may have a DIFFERENT.
  
  CONTRL for each choice between DIFFERENT type of controls ..
  
  
  
  8 faders, 8 pottards endless pottards 8, 24 buttons, a touch screen, a pitch bend wheel and modulation, button stop / play / record / rew / ff ...
  
  
  
  Ergonomics exellente: NBRS presets, record card to mark CONTRL, orders penss well.
  
  
  
  USB connectivity and noon, USB power, mains or batteries.

  Utilization

  Average keyboard but I've seen much worse, the faders seem not stable in the hand, and the endless pottards not enjoyable.
  
  
  
  Simple, practical and ingnieuse.
  
  
  
  >> Not need to read the manual: D

  Overall Opinion

  Making a little cheap.
  
  
  
  thanks ergonomics well thought it really helps to keep control over bcp instruments, live for the endless pottards completly also switch between different mode of control with just the encoders and buttons are kept m My control over others.
  
  
  
  It is installed at home, I think it will move, because it is good, despite a quality manufacturing probably related to the price offered for the possibilities: D

  minimax's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  Small keyboard (a few more notes could have fit in the same format ...)
  
  lots of buttons and knob
  
  3 outputs (USB, midi1, midi2)
  
  configurable desire between the outputs, MIDI channels, the types of messages ...

  Utilization

  Keyboard a bit short ... (2 octaves is better than good but I still have ten fingers)
  
  the rest ... super ok
  
  instructions in French on the website (hopefully because I knew nothing noon)
  
  all buttons and faders can be configured in different types of messages (CC, Chang Prgr, NRP, etc.)

  Overall Opinion

  I've had fifteen but I have some problems with some buttons that do not work as they should according to the manual ... see my post
  
  I saw that some have had problems with then maybe towards SAV (Note that for a!)
  
  I use it to control live and reason (the samplers) to rewire
  
  I use it with an external power supply (not included) to avoid any heating ...
  
  I chose it mainly for its cot while a small (keyboard + faders + knobs) programmable
  
  portable and lightweight (I also have an old Yamaha V50 25 kg)
  
  
  
  I add a little flat today's my opinion
  
  the keyboard off again in the box to the seller ...
  
  an encoder knob endless (the data value n6) just let go ...
  
  3 months of use (not even intensive) and has been able to walk! (Yeah I know was coming, but I hope that has come only once) ...
  
  thank you for the guarantee
