What are some of your favourite MIDI Keyboards or Controllers in your studio?

@Charlie-Oooooo Год назад

The Akai tools are indeed awesome! For a controller with weighted keys I love my Roland RD 300s. It literally has lead weights to mimic a piano. Weighs like 35kg!!! Also has decent 80's keyboard sounds internal.

@Weissman111 Год назад

Still firmly attached to my Novation Impulse 61.

@PianoDentist Год назад

NI 32 keyboard which works great with Komplete plus a larger 61 key Nektar impact, which has profile/AutoMap software to work with your DAW

@justinhavu Год назад

Arturia KeyLab 61 MkII. I'm a keyboardist, so I NEED full-size keys (mini keys are not an option for me), at least 5 octaves, with a great feel, and the KeyLab ticks all of those boxes for me.

@harrisbeatsfrankou6304 Год назад

I got sunjays recommendation on an M-audio. Its basic I can mix with it. device control...But! I want a weighted KB shootout...please. zero algoryhtms..just weighted. Thinking Arturia with Spectrasonics Keyscape. I use mainly rmx real Drummers and Kits and edit them to my taste. And I like Spectrasonics and Eric is a Boss OG from Roland. Chance of a weighted KB shootout Warren? M Maudio is perfect for swells mono synths and drum grooves...throw in the daw control to assign for whatever in seconds and it is great. 10 faders, 10 rotary dials. Sunjay sold me on that. But I really want a weighted KB. Thinking Arturia 88 keys.

I appreciate you going outside your comfort zone Warren! Thank you for discussing gear you might not use yourself all that much but is still really popular. My fave MIDI controller is the Arturia Keystep 37, the form factor is perfect for my limited space but I still get 37 keys, which is a lot for a one-handed keyboard controller

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Thanks ever so much! I actually have a couple of MIDI controllers! I have an Arturia as well! It's great

The Keystep is a great option for computer based production and hardware synth control.

This video is so cool, Sanjay. Two people in the video. Both are keyboard-midi experts. One is familiar with the product and introduces it to the other who is new to it, perhaps with preconceived notions, so used to studio equipment on a level I probably will never comprehend. But the friendly and rapid interaction between you two is so inspiring! This video is helping me decide which MIDI/Keyboard to get. Many thanks to both of you!

@imag1n342 Год назад

I am trying to get into this hobby and i stumbled upon this vid. The MPK mini and the MiniLab3 look like great options for me and my budget, but i am a traditional pianist. Does the minimal amount of keys hinder "real" playing? Or should i not worry.

@guitboxgeek Год назад

As a guitar player, whenever I need to play a bit on my midi controller I catch myself doing vibrato on the keyboard - of course it doesn't do anything to the actual midi. I may need to get one of these fancy MPE controllers!

Haha I do that too!

@jennoscura2381 Год назад

The heart of my setup is an Arturia KeyStep Pro. It's a fantastic MIDI controller. The sequencers are fantastic. It has a drum sequencer that works great. I also has really nice arpeggiators. A really cool feature is probably on steps in a sequence. I love using that in drums so I can get some variation in only one bar. Just pop a clap or cowbell in thrre and set the probability to 50. It has old school 5 pin MIDI, so it works with my vintage synths and drum machines. It has two MIDI outs and one MIDI in. The MIDI in allows me to use my Yamaha DX7 as a master keyboard. The two MIDI outs are connected to a couple of MIDI through boxes. That allows me to rout MIDI to 12 different synths and drum machines. So I can use my DX7 to play any of my other synths. In addition to old school MIDI it has USB, CV and gate for Eurorack, as well as drum gates and clock. It can receive transport messages from the DAW. So when I hit record in the DAW it hits play on the KSP and starts up the sequencers and arpeggiators. When you do that the temp of the KSP is set by the DAW. So everything lines up nicely. For me the KeyStep Pro is great. It makes it so much easier for me to make music. I used sequenced drums, sequenced or arpeggiated bass, and then I live play a keyboard on top of that. Everything goes into my 24 channel Mackie console and out to the DAW as a single track. If sequencers are up your alley; take a look at the Arturia KeyStep Pro. It's fantastic.

@Axeltab Год назад

I'm using the Akai MPK Mini with new Cubase's 12 midi remote featuring and the result is great! Cheers 🥂

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Thanks ever so much for sharing

@SanjayC Год назад

Another akai fan! That keyboard is so popular and works well with so many workflows.

@L.Scott_Music Год назад

I had a touch of skepticism that a Top 3 midi keyboard controllers would work out very well, but with the mention of the NI board this really nailed it down well and concisely.

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Thanks ever so much Loren

@SanjayC Год назад

I use an NI keyboard daily. Excellent integration with NI’s software.

@L.Scott_Music Год назад

@@SanjayC I have one on my Sweetwater wish list. How is the key weight? I'm hoping its piano like but not too much as to not work for synth styles.

@SanjayC Год назад

@@L.Scott_Music its much more like a piano than a synth...but keep your expectations in check...its not a piano. But I grew up learning classical piano and the NI S88 totally satisfies!

@romanwestenholtz4396 Год назад

how much gig do they use and how CPU do they suck up???

@SanjayC Год назад

MIDI controllers run with negligible cpu usage. They’re sending basic MIDI messages to your computer which don’t really take up much bandwidth at all.

@davidreidy5750 Год назад

Been kinda wanting to pick up the Akai controller but I already have enough keyboards/synths setup in my lab that I just feel better using what I already have.I mean its like a really scaled down studio here folks,trying not to trip over cables,pedalboards, drum kit,mic stands etc😆🗽

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Thanks ever so much for sharing!

@hughcdavies Год назад

Can see the appeal of the last one. However, none I think are a match for my Korg Tactiles. The Korgs have real Midi output and whilst I use a computer to program them. I feed them into a Roland M-GS64 for sounds. I don't even own a DAW.

@Producelikeapro Год назад

@michelnassar9706 Год назад

MiniLab

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Great! It's cheaper!

@RobertFisher1969 Год назад

Too bad Sanjay didn’t show Warren “MIDI learn” capabilities. Lots of software these days has a “MIDI learn” mode where you click a control on screen, twist/slide a MIDI control, and it makes the mapping for you. Very quick and easy to get customized mappings. BTW, I thought the only Seaboard Roli is selling these days is the larger Rise and that the smaller Block is no longer available. I was late to wanting to get one, but the Rise seems like more than I’m willing to spend for an experiment. And none of the used Blocks I’ve seen for sale have inspired confidence that they were in good shape.

@SanjayC Год назад

That's true, I need to visit again to show Warren more tricks on the controllers! And I didn't even bring a grid controller like a Launchpad. That's for next time. Yes, one correction in the video: the Roli Songmaker Kit only comes with the Roli LUMI now. The Seaboard only comes in the bigger Rise now. Thanks!

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Please do Sanjay! Always amazing having you here!

@Thom726 Год назад

These controllers are the best sellers because these are cheap, but if you are a pianist or dedicated keyboard player, beats aren’t a necessity. How about a review of high end 88 key weighted controllers like a Doepfer LMK-4?

@kashdro85 Год назад

May I humbly recommend the Kawaii VPC1 if your budget is without a ceiling. Not exactly feature rich like the LMK4 but, the action is unparalleled.

@harrisbeatsfrankou6304 Год назад

Amen!!

@cefahprod Год назад

What's very interesting about SanjayC is the fact that he is a pianist and review tons of keyboard, synth and other high end pianist oriented midi controller. Maybe check his channel or maybe produce like a pro will do a video with him again about more heavy weighted controllers

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Hi Tom, yes, these are multi faceted keyboard controllers not weighed piano keyboards. We will definitely do a weighted keyboard video in the future as opposed to one that is a midi controller with assignable pads for drums etc.

@SanjayC Год назад

Hi Tom...I think that's a great idea for a video. I'm going to look into it for sure. The Doepfer has always interested me. Thanks for the idea.

@nomad1517 10 месяцев назад

I hope a day will come when these people do not always use Ableton to demonstrate a midi keyboard. There are more linear daws out there. Please... Please.. Do not tell the viewers that Ableton is the most used daw in the world. The world is filled with other people also. Regards.

@Producelikeapro Год назад

Ableton isn’t the most used DAW out there, that’s why I didn’t say that! Actually the most downloaded DAW is FL Studio because they have a mobile APP version. Have you watched my channel before? Alberton is NOT the main featured DAW at all.
