What motivated me is the size and functions (keyboards + pads + rotary boubtons)

UTILIZATION

The touch is nice but coming from a keyboard Akai MPK25: do not compare the two.

The feel is like nothing compared to keyboards much more expensive and that's okay :-)

on the other hand when comparing the price of this keyboard with keyboards the same price ... then I find it more interesting ...

you use it on his computer via USB and is recognized immediately in Ableton Live. The buttons then recognize rotaifs lesplug ins and 8 buttons so have the functions of Ableton Live 8 macros. it's perfect!

The PAD are self illuminating (but cool at night EST all!) And flexible enough. So it was fun to type on it :-)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a week, and I must be satisfied, the pads are good, the buttons respond correctly under rotary ableton live: they are a little small but hey, we can not have it all: a full keyboard and fairly nomadic ...

I use the train, on my terrace, etc ... I'm happy!
no hope of anything more at this price but it's still easy to use, touch is correct, all perfect opportunities for a nomad.
