Best Compact Mini Key 49 and 61 Key Controller?
High Diving Act replied to High Diving Act's topic in The Keyboard Corner
Thank you everyone for chiming in. All of your suggestions were very appreciated. I am going to give the Midiplus X4 a try (just ordered on amazon). The Korg microkey air option was also considered but I recall really not liking the playability of the keybed on the microkorg synths. I'll report back about the midi plus once I give it a run through. -

Ya.. have one. They are hard to sing and play at the same time though.. lol -

High Diving Act replied to High Diving Act's topic in The Keyboard Corner
Thanks Scott.. ya I didn't put must because if I found the right board.. I could use a midi host if needed. And ya I have already considered using a rechargeable battery pack. The goal is compactness with the least peripheral gear. I already have a Casio ctx 700 for a portable Jam keyboard and previously the Roland Go Keys but neither of those are convenient to play on my lap which means I bring a stand.. etc. To be honest if the Reface CP had 49 up to 61 keys.. I wouldn't be posting this. It checks all my boxes and I can jam on it but.. I would like to have an option with more keys available. That's why mini keys would be best for me as long as they have decent velocity response and don't rip my fingers up from shitty sharp edges. -

Thanks for your replies all. I have edited the original post with more information. -
Thoughts? Must be capable of running on battery power and preferably has 5pin din. To be more specific... I go out with my motorhome frequently in the summer. I am looking for an ultra compact controller for jamming at the fire.. etc. Something I could put in a large backpack type of deal. I already have a Reface CP and a Roland Mobile Cube.. but I would like the option to have a controller with more keys than the Reface offers but can control the Reface. I don't really care if it has any additional controls beyond the keys. I have researched already but.. just checking if anyone may have a suggestion that I have maybe not seen or considered.

Novation Components Issue with my Summit
High Diving Act replied to High Diving Act's topic in The Keyboard Corner
Problem solved. Changed cables and USB input. I guess the other cable had no issues with sending but not receiving. -
I can push sounds and banks from Components to the Summit with no issue. When I try to get a bank from the Summit.. Components freezes. I also tried a sysex dump from the Summit to Midi Ox and that doesn't work right either. Anyone here have any suggestions?

Thoughts on this? Looks interesting but would like to hear more audio samples.

There are a few small differences. -
Roland Go:Piano 88 (release and price)
High Diving Act replied to High Diving Act's topic in The Keyboard Corner
Thanks for the lead. No one in Canada is listing them yet. That is about the price I was expecting. -
Anyone have some inside information on when it will be available and the price? I'm going to NAMM so hopefully find out there.

HDA, I followed the above links, theres nothing to click on to play your demos. Googled it, and theres a Yamaha Soundmondo app, which i installed on my ipad. Clicked again on the above links and it still just takes me to a page with no play button. There is no preview on soundmondo. You have to hook your modx up to the computer and using google chrome only you click on the sound.. click sync.. and it will load onto your modx to preview on the keyboard. It will not save there unless you choose to save it to your keyboard.

I have been downloading, sifting through, auditioning and editing/customizing patches over the past week for live shows. Here are my soundmondo submissions. I think they are great starting points for some bread and butter sounds. Hope these are helpful to a some of you.

While I have always liked Yamaha, it was never my "go to" brand because I didn't find the UI very friendly. After spending a week with my MODX7, I am now staring to fly around the os structure and edits. I am reprogramming patches for my next show and I am very happy with the outcome! I may officially be a convert!
