I already had a master keyboard nomadic than 2 octaves (I tested the Korg NANOKEY unsuccessfully for never recognized by my laptop and traded to a friend and I own the Akai LPK 25, very good but alas no wheels)
The longer key travel and the presence of pitch wheel and modulation then the 3 octaves for the coup to overthrow the agreements have motivated my purchase especially since it has a beautiful appearance.

There are the classic octave buttons with this type of keyboard.

More if it requires a USB port on your machine, it can accommodate 2 when plugged so it wins in the end.

It has no input jack for a sustain pedal and other pedals, volume, modulation, but it does him no fault must still remember that it is a portable keyboard, so we need In essence, and there he is.


UTILIZATION

Touch is very nice considering the size of the keyboard, it is equivalent to Akai LPK 25.

It suits me perfectly, a manual is provided clear and simple, not so indispensabe the keypad is intuitive (and then it's a keypad!).
I did that looked furtively and in principle not to miss the hidden functions.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 1 month.

as said before I tried the Korg nanoKEY (assumed to help in format to the touch but very questionable and I could not really see what it was: see above), the Akai 25 LPK very good but without knobs ( I always have for my frequent trips for the more compact it fits in a laptop bag that is no longer the case with a 3 octave).

It is more successful than the other 2 but less compact and therefore they have to choose more or note or more portability then buy a bigger backpack and there it is perfect!

The quality / price is okay but not amazing, it's certainly a novelty (especially wheels) but it is a master keyboard, not a technological revolution, a good price for me would be a 60aine euros .

I do it again without hesitation that choice if it meets a genuine need
