All user reviews for the Novation Remote 37 SL

I bought this keyboard to use studio and live electro
midi keyboard and usb

UTILIZATION

this is a very good keyboard touch is not dégeu and midi functions are really top
everything is editable in every sense, a true pleasure.
by against the manual to help her ... if you know not just the south, good luck.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a good time (3/4 years)
I had a lot of keyboards
then on the other hand ... it is fragile, but then vraimenr fragile ...
One week of use I already recollais pitch wheel pouttant chui really a nag ...
10 days, painting faders was the trunk,
1 year of use and it is unrecognizable, more paint, encoders took the game, the knobs are struggling to operate,
I will not repeat that choice, alas because it is really a good machine on paper,
but then not too too too strong.
I would even say that it is recyclable: D

Quality of CONTRL (with AutoMapping) + + joystick pad

USB connector

UTILIZATION

The touch keypad and knobs is simply to say anything good (just under the pads)

configrationest the relatively simple but requires nanmoins concepts of MIDI assignments and custom configuration

a walk alone the automap is gnial!

there are vidos (in English) that if rsument features Novation's site is well done but I think English has a tendency ... (I was not me drang)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it only for 2 weeks, the handling is fast enough if we update the site immediately and that installs automap to change the plug-in (easy to do)

the "touchquot; I find really enjoyable (except the pads), the assignment is really easy to grate. This is an area intelligent and efficient trs!

I had only before a BCF2000 to control volume by 8 tracks but given the capabilities of the BTE and the same if not motorized this keyboard / controller is incomparably intuitive and complete no longer need (almost) of the mouse.

the surface is a bit CHRE if you want the keyboard (there is also the remote Zro SL), but not worth hsiter!

It yananmoins qq little bugs (I'll PTT Post in forums) but I do not know if a lies in the fact that I have a PC or I'm on ableton. Business track

The format suited to my work environment,
the principle of the object itself,
This is what has motivated my choice.

connectors:
- Usb
- Noon (in, out, thru, and a second out) /
- 2 footswitch inputs (sustain, expression)
- Transformer

UTILIZATION

- Touch is nothing exceptionally, but it has no sensation dsagreable like some models of other brands ...
- All the controllers are very pleasant to the touch .. but the pads are hard it's not like a mpc, so a can be confusing.

- The setup is rather simple since they are "Template"
- However there are a lot of possibilities so necessarily becomes more complex but still ...
Sacrament intuitive
- Not really look at the manual yet

OVERALL OPINION

has been a while since I wanted this machine will become the perfect extension for my REASON.
I did not test enough but the first few minutes of happiness c,
the screen, which gives all the values ​​and parameter names, the number of possibilities ...
and more I find very attractive.
I just minor complaints: the screen is flat, not at all inclined and therefore
must be above to read what is happening.
it is more expensive in its category, but my eyes rel competitor.
I have m-audio and live honestly, did not have comparable (even the Axiom ...)
I think the SL did not, however, for undergoing the conditions of the scene,
So there will be a home.

for now I am happy ... we'll see in a few weeks.

477 for 37 keys to beginners we said, "was expensive".

But it is worth its price!

He does everything well: NRPN sysex cc ... rpn toggle, not ahead, on / off switches etc. for ...
Well I will not but there's Retailer you need Manir and simple.
History to compare: Imagine ... a Mackie C4 must edit your preset to a text file and search through tens, hundreds of lines of code because you can edit the stroke of a knob or add / edit sysex crappy factory supplied directly from the publisher or software on the machine. Not super complicated but in vain forcment boring ... it was clear!

Was not with the SL.

UTILIZATION

Well the thing that Fache, information about the SL are both on a book with the brochure controllo, the manual on automap. ... And the PDF FAQ. Without the Internet you do not have complete information ncessaires abrrant ... just for hardware and powerful as a symbol so dear. I complain a great beginners honntement.
Not as easy as it sounds, the RVE of controllo or nothing to do, all thanks Intgr automatically the automap is not for now ... BUT ... once this paramtr controllo disassemble, switch from "Mackie Control" in flight cubase plugins is done without any problems.
Skip plugins plugins either.

The automap is really excellent but I personally remake of the automap office plants, they do not suit me at disposal, labeling, and sometimes values. It's a job I am still in it but once done Aie Aie Aie. : Amuuuuur:

Finally I fly almost compltement the EMS Synthi A vs-(I have the joystick), a bit of trouble with the mini Arturia level switches but m'tonnerait BLME comes from the SL plutt it me or arturia, I tent in automap and CC, I will test it to see if NRPN a password.

OVERALL OPINION

Trs good machine, we'll see for the price level reliability intrt it to last.
It is better built an X-board and fortunately dj. The keyboard is enjoyable, although Herbie VLOC for apprentices.

I could never have another master keyboard-controllo is sr. Congratulations to Novation, pioneered the genre.
I imagine the future, because the formulation in other manufacturers.
It promises the mao!

Okay so let me say that I have received the same today!

- What technical specifications motivated your choice?

I had a MIDI control surface and a MIDI keyboard => a while one is no worse! Then the APRS forum j I have read it more silent than the adapted bitstream to control softwares. The two LCD screens have made use of CRITERIA choice knowing that I did not want Roland, Korg, Akai ..... which they are modeled on the hardware too and I already know (good course, but I wanted the new)

- What connector (MIDI pedals ...)?

A good classic vieu USB cable is the trick

UTILIZATION

Easy installation, the Live recognizes immediately. In my case, the buttons on the right control and left-Live control the vst. As for the keyboard, I'm not pro in the Contents, but it is enjoyable and respond to the sensitivity (I cross aftertouch)

OVERALL OPINION

I've had today as di at the beginning, a few years ago I had a day that I've uc33 quickly sold (as of ..... m. ca ca should not even exist). Subsequently I paass the hardware (mc808 and DX200) but I think the harware limitations imposed too quickly!

This keyboard compltement my bluff is really a pleasure to use this controller!

It is a bit expensive but hey I would do without this choice hsiter. I'll still discover and if jy think I will give a different impression later!

I bought it after testing the Nocturn (https://fr.audiofanzine.com/surface-de-controle-midi/novation/Nocturn/editorial/tests/controleur-de-nuit.html).

I was, despite its limitations, rather attracted by the Automap. Having the experience of Behringer BCF and BCR that lack, I wanted a controller with screens that recalls the settings.

Also, I wanted a controller with a small keyboard for failing to turn me into one of my great master controller for a beat when I work on a sound.

UTILIZATION

The touch keyboard is quite nice. Sometimes I record some stuff with. Given its size, even when I use primarily in research / work sounds and I use a larger keyboard when it comes to recording.

The manual is clear, from what I remember.

The Automap configuration is very simple. However, there are gaps very stupid, like failing to reassign a button to another by simple copy / paste or drag and drop.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about two years. I have several teachers and other keyboards I have tested poorly.

What I like most:
- Overall quality
- Presence of screens
- Intelligent operation
- Ease of Automap once properly set (which still takes time)
- USB powered
- Two MIDI ports

What I dislike:
- The viewing angle is limited screens when the keyboard is placed on a table and not in front of you. It then requires to raise and turn a bit toward you. Less aesthetic than keep it aligned with its control surface for example.
- Endless knobs knobs: I hate it, preferring the non-serrated. At this price, they could have put it.
- Automap not "universal" functions essentially about plug-ins. Do not work on the integrated effects of sequencers that are not plug-ins.

The quality / price is burdened by the price. It's still expensive. But the presence of screens, the quality (rather than at the top of what is generally found on the keyboards of this size), rich connectivity, the Automap ... All that ends justify the price compared to the rest of the market.

As for the choice again, I think so. It probably does not meet all needs or all awards, but when it does, hard to find a replacement.

In addition, with the purchase of dedicated bag (damn good and solid) which can also pick up my laptop and some accessories, it makes me a config portable and powerful enough jam or go for a holiday.
