Don't buy it. Sucks.

Edirol PCR-30Published on 10/11/14 at 06:46
Pretty complete, cheap and plastic look like, lots of knobs, the keys are too soft.

UTILIZATION

Not bad for config, cheap confection but normal considering the price.

OVERALL OPINION

Two keys stopped working after three month of use. Looking on internet and realized happens a lot. Completely regreatted of the purchase.

8 knobs, 8 sliders and a couple of other buttons for play/stop/record and other functions. The pitch and modulation are intergrated in a single joystick, making it easier to control with a single finger. 32 keys, 2 and a half octaves, which is perfect for a compact keyboard. The only concern may be its size: it is compact, but quite big at the same time. MIDI and USB out, perfect for both usage.

Price paid: $180 USD

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use, almost plug and play. All the drivers are included, along with a Sonar music creation program.

OVERALL OPINION

The M30 is very strong, resistant to shocks. You'll notice its good assembly when it gets right out of the box. Even the weakest parts like the sliders and knobs are very hard to break.

It's simply magic, works perfectly, I fell in love!

I was looking for a nice little keyboard to manage my Keyswtichs, have next to my PC to set sounds and so I chose the PCR30. There are widely everything you need in terms of MIDI commands and a nice little editor for the PC.

USE

Catastrophe! he broke down almost immediately (while qu''il does not move from my desk!) I quickly had a few touches that were not working. I dismounted and I mi s in connection with a box that makes the VAS. He sent me a new card for half the price of the keyboard and ... I could not plug it in. Three months later! I learned that my keyboard, bought new, was of an older design and the connection tables had changed. So I paid a keyboard, a compensation for...…

I learned that my keyboard, bought new, was of an older design and the connection tables had changed. So I paid a keyboard, a compensation for a keyboard that have never been used and is still down.
So forget!

NOTICE GLOBAL

IT could have been a good product if the quality of manufacturing and service were up to.

I complete ... no news of service, vias I therefore take the necessary decision: throw this keyboard to the bucket so that it will have cost me one and half times its price and it has served me at most ten times! A SHAME!

This is nickel bbte this what I needed. For résumé: 32-key keyboard enjoyable, 27% Assignable Controller 100 (8 pots / faders 8 / 9 buttons + 2 pedals). 15 non-volatile memory recall instantly.
I love: programming the Sysex messages, channel assignment and for each port SPECIFICATIONS Controller, and robust appearance compared to surfaces or M-Audio Evolution (not yet done with scne , jvous say if he survcu APRS), and editor software that can quickly save or remember all the memory via USB. Oh, by the way: the beast is also a MIDI interface with 1 in / 1out.

Oh, by the way: the beast is also a MIDI interface with 1 in / 1out.
I like least: uh I not found a default ... ah yes! no mode "draw-bar" (reversing the course of the faders), yet it easily bypasses trs bp in Logic.

2 MONTHS AFTER CORRECTION: The drawbar mode exists, with a B4 is enjoyable. Bte and holds out. So I go back to Note 10

UTILIZATION

Keyboard: nickel even if I use some trs ('m used to the touch heavy)
Configuration, installation takes less than 15 minutes, no problem (for once)
Use: trs intuitive, even fearful (eg, a memory for a CONTRL VST, hop three keys to press and we change memory to another VST CONTRL)
Manual: trs full multilingual.

OVERALL OPINION

Frache acquired, so I made the rounds yet (but I have yet to see a default)
Report qualitprix: Buy new zoros 215, I think that the fact has
Used with Logic (which may itself re-transform messages reus infinity)
Printing freedom trs enjoyable (I prfre 25 Controller I change the functions as needed plutt than 10 hardware emulators with 300 pots ... you get lost)
