Love this bit of kit.
Great piece of kit which works really well with the built in Bitwig plugin
Love love love it!
I've had mine for a few years and it just works. It's really easy to play, and I love how the pitch wheel feels.
Easy access with keys
With 25 keys and 8 oscillators, this MIDI keyboard can be excellent for creating live sessions. Easy to use buttons wired to certain labeled keys allows quick access to the software you use
Great product with rugged yet innovative controls for Ableton Live, along with the added portability of a lightweight 25key unit
This little gem is incredibly handy for working out melodic structures without straying too far from my computer. I can place it on my desk alongside my Macbook and Launchpad, and still have enough room to play with. The Novation 'INCONTROL' feature is incredibly useful if I spontaneously wish to control a random parameter or record automation via hardware, as all I have to do is click the unit, and turn the knobs, which are automatically mapped to each parameter of the effect in question. Also, the added transport controls and track switching buttons have been a lifesaver, coupled with the automatic record arm when you switch channels. For the price, there is no reason why a producer and composer shouldn't have a smaller MIDI unit like this for both the quick studio fix, or hardware on the road.
i use it
primarily for the keys and transport controls. i don't use the pads or knobs cause skrillecks told me not to
