The goal was to own a small keyboard for Master bedroom ideas with my MacBook Air 11 "
I needed a powered USB keyboard on the bus, with max 49 keys, a pitch wheel and modulation.
The game touches on being fast enough to play for a non pianist, the small size of the keys was a good point.
Finally the presence of a USB hub for connecting two devices such as dongles or Steinberg ilok or other controllers were also in favor of this choice.

Finally the lack of competition has come up my mind ..

UTILIZATION

The keyboard is very comfortable and exudes solidity unlike nanoKEY of Korg which keys come apart after a week of use!
Nevertheless there is a small detail that bothers me a bit and I could check on other copies is that the keys back up a bit. In fact the rest, they are not exactly horizontal, they are at an angle if you look at the keyboard profile that points to the edge of the top buttons.
This is not noticeable in the game too but compared to a mini keyboard akai LPK25 kind, it is less fun ..

Otherwise apart from that the installation is automatic on my Mac and the small software korg can choose from 8 profiles of velocity, which can stick well to all styles of play I

OVERALL OPINION

has been a week but is already enough to go around and give an objective opinion, apart from the long term, of course!

To give an overall opinion, I would say they are very enjoyable to play, it is relatively compact and the function became essential HUB ..
However, I do not appreciate the fact that the keypad is facing up cradles, which breaks the aesthetics and quality of the calves pitch modulation .. Very cheap and very convenient.

Briefly say that for now the lack of competition is forcing me to keep it but as soon Aker released a version of its 37 keys with a small LPK25 pitch wheel, then I resell the korg to go to the Akai;) & %&%&%&%
