 |
|
Hello everyone,
I need some serious help right here.
These are the controllers i picked out:
Akai MPK25
M-Audio Axiom (Pro) 25
Novation ReMOTE SL (compact) 25
They're all kinda the same price and I just can't decide
which one to go for...
So: Have you guys made any experiences with either one
of these controllers?
Pro/Cons?
thanks in advance
ceQ

you should wait for the Akai APC 40, and if you need keys, go for something like the korg K25.
Within your propositions i would go for the novation, automap mod woks great with live. the akai looks good also. "I" tend to avoid M-audio... |

Thanks for the reply
APC40 is a fcking dream, but way to expensive for my budget.
The K25 looks nice, but i wanted something with pads & knobs in addition to the keys.

thanks for the wise words...
but i feel like i'm at a point where i can't get do all the stuff i want to do in ableton at the same time (well that's the basic idea of an contoller -_-)
so i need one pretty fast, since it's kinda my main hobby atm.
i'll wait like 2 more weeks mayb and see if the akai is getting out on some good sales or sh!t

cant go wrong with the Axiom
semi weighted keys, knobs, pads
basically enough knobs and sh!t to experiment your heart out
plus for me i really like the feel over some light mega thin plastic thing
should do nicely
dunno bout the others
