MIDI Keyboard
ANDYF ANDYF is offline 09-05-2011, 20:21 PM

Hi Guys

I need some advice on what would be the best purchase in the form of a Midi Keyboard. You know the type of music I try to create and am getting a bit exhausted in laying down individual chords and notes manually on my FL piano roll. I am not saying money is no object but I don't want any rubbish.

Any suggestions would be greatly received. I think I want at least 45 keys

Thanks in advance

Andy

Hi Andy,the midi controller i use is the M_Audio Oxygen 61.
The keys are a little light but its usb so latency is very low and there is plenty of controller dials and sliders for real time changes of the filter/lfo of your software synth,or fade the mixer channel live as the track is playing and then tweak later for that perfect take.

Andy I use a Yamaha PSR E323 because it has a decent piano sound and loads of other GM sounds but it also has MIDI capability allowing me to connect it to my DAW with a MIDI to USB cable. Best of both worlds . HOWEVER: no pitch bend wheel.
