Hi ALL,

I currently because I already have it use my Yamaha SX700 arranger keyboard as a midi keyboard, but thinking about purchasing a dedicated midi controller keyboard

I would like something with at at least 8 controllers and 49 keys any recommendations ,

Depends on what is important to you: Keyboard feel, durability, motorized faders, features, Cost etc.

Here is a list of some that I know about,

• Nektar
• MAudio
• Behringer
• Native Instruments
• Akai
• Korg

I am having trouble with "controllers" here--pretty much anything other than a keyboard key (and those as well if your software allows you to reconfigure them) would be a controller. I suspect that you may be talking about the buttons people like to use in performance to trigger short sequences, but I tend to think of MIDI controllers as sliders or knobs.

Hi all,

 

I was initially looking at buying a 49 note keyboard with 8 encoders/controllers but as I have already a 61 note keyboard that can output midi and a Korg nanocontroller 

I am beging to wonder if another keyboard is really required ?
