Des notes et du bruit « Very good »
Published on 12/24/10 at 01:26
Best value:
Excellent
For connectivity I'll let you see the data sheet. I'll embellish a M Audio SP2.
Motivation of choice:
88-key hammer
pads
lots of little buttons that let her play with vst
expertise AKAI
the price (purchase before the general increase)
UTILIZATION
Good product, feels very correct for non-pianist, most suitable for people accustomed to keyboards like me, has a real piano touch.
Plugged into my macbook, launched Live and everything works without having to configure anything, it's perfect. (Live usb, not through a HUB, the beast being greedy).
I was not too far in using it for the Intant, I did that last week.
OVERALL OPINION
A week.
I tried a million audio and a CME 88-key hammer and in the same price range. The MPK88 pleased me because it has many more features compared to the others.
It is a good (before the increase I would have put very good) quality / price ratio that will fit very well with those seeking a complete, robust, and inexpensive in view of its qualities.
Bad points:
No on / off button (I'm exaggerating a bit but I find it very useful)
The weight (30 kilos anyway from the gearbox) it is difficult to transport, forget about doing the club scene every night with installation and uninstall.
Arpeggiator useless (it is a function not in itself an arpeggiator)
The pads and the buttons are a little noisy.
