- What characteristics have motivated your choice?
This product seemed fairly complete, at an affordable price, for a first controller.
- What connector (MIDI pedals ...)?...
Possible connection to MIDI or USB
A pedal can be connected.
chti hole for a lock with a keypad allows the same style as for laptops.
quick list controls
8 knobs
An eight faders (unusable - always send CC)
9 buttons below the faders
transport controls
transposition of octave keyboard.
+ mod wheel pitch bend.
UTILIZATION
- The touch keyboard is it fun? Should your use?
very plastic key, the keys back soon (more on a real piano, it's nice) and have little inertia.
velocity sensitivity sufficient for a fan of synth, but far too low for someone who is looking for the piano and a touch of that type.
- The touch other settings
use, the knobs are nice, not super accurate but acceptable.
faders are themselves very imprecise.
buttons have a very dry to touch, but work.
Edit: the following has been fixed in bypass switch on / off
Please note a tendency on the keyboard to send MIDI signals on certain controls so that does not touch (vibration sensitivity). It's very annoying when you rule a synth with the mouse, the controller in question is not about setting software, and all of a sudden there a balance signal.
- The general configuration is it simple?
the knobs are a little too close to one another, care for people with big fingers a little.
- The selection of MIDI channels, patches is easy?
A button press.
- The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
Manuel not super clear, but not useful either.
Software configuration
This is just a gas plant, but it does what you request.
OVERALL OPINION
- How long have you use it?
Bought almost a year ago, I had an urgent need for a keyboard and a few controllers. this product seemed fairly complete, at an affordable price.
- What is so special that you like most and least?
Good touch knob, bad touch faders.
The only big problem is that the MIDI signal from its own from time to time.
- How would you rate the quality / price?
Average quality for a price gun, an attractive purchase for the budget.
Edit: after a year and a half on / off switch behind the unit had a loose connection. After 2 years the keyboard is unusable, the faders send MIDI CC continuously, even when the keyboard is placed on a table without being hit.
The problem was solved by turning the switch on / off and welding the legs in position.
- With experience, you do again this choice? ...
Not necessarily, the fact of a return on Avoi MIDI controls (See Remote) is very useful.
