Recommend a Small Midi Keyboard

Post by a5hl3y2k6 » Thu Dec 16, 2010 10:02 am

Hi all,

I am looking to replace my midi keyboard as it doesn't have a velocity feature, no pitch bend or octave control.

I have limited space, and my current keyboard is the perfect size, but doesnt have the features i need. i currently have this poverty spec model.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000 ... DGA3NQZ3FZ

(i paid alot less than that!!!!)

But i have been looking at the Akai LPK25 - has some nice features but only 25 keys (although does have octave up/down control)

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Akai-LPK25-Lapt ... 283&sr=1-1

Could anyone recommend any other models? that are a compact size and have a reasonably amount of features e.g., velocity, pitch wheel etc, i cant seem to find much more!, Size is more of an issue than price, prepared to pay a reasonalble sum for something that is going to be good enough

thanks all

How about the forthcomming MPK mini?
I looks like an update of LPK25. But with drum pads! :m:
Haven't tried it yet though.

I recently bought an Alesis Q25 http://www.dolphinmusic.co.uk/product/4 ... board.html. Could be what you're looking for, nice and small, pitch and modulation wheels, velocity sensitive and octave control :)
