Met My Expectations
Strix 13.05.2020
It's the first midi controller I've ever used so I can't really compare it with others. That being said, it works as advertised (I'm using it with FL Studio and I haven't encountered any problems with its integration). It feels well built and quite sturdy (I'm not planning to carry it around so your results may vary but I expect it to last years in home conditions - hopefully I'm not wrong - I only have it for couple of months so far :) ). I also really like the full size keys and their response - I'm not a piano player but I'd dare to say if you decide to learn playing piano on this controller, you should be able to switch to the real thing later quite easily (just don't forget to buy sustain pedal if that's your intention since it's not included). Overal, I'm happy with the value I got for my money. If you're, like I was, looking for a way to make composing and producing music on a computer much more intuitive and fun than just clicking virtual keyboard on your screen, this keyboard delivers just that, and some more :)

Quality no frills midi keyboard. Perfect for using with an iPad.
AnthonyUK 11.09.2021
This is a quality no frills midi keyboard. If you want a keyboard with loads of functions, this isn't for you. At only GB£77.00 it is a much better quality keyboard than most of the others around this price range.
The keys have a firm solid playable feel to them.
It is perfect to use with an iPad especially if you use an iPad as a midi sound module. it takes it's power from the iPad with very little drain on the iPad battery so it's great for mobile stand alone use.
If you're an iPad music maker, buy a Nektar GX 49.

Great Value!
jaazodongo 17.06.2019
It really does not feel like a semi-weighted keyboard.
For the price, this is a great product especially for producers and beat makers on the move!

Highly recommended. It would fit into any pro studio too.

The best sounding controler
Andrej09 14.11.2017
With the touch of controler keys you can control the sound, and comparing with Roland and Swissonic with this one i could control The sound(piano) the best. It has some special touch to it. And yes i am a guittar player :) It is also wery lightwaight so easy to traver.. I don't know what is with wrong with this site but i can ton copy paste anymore to correct my english and am experiencing lags.everything goes in slow motion?Sorry!

Lovely lightweight controller for desktop use
weezul 12.08.2023
I love having this just above my hands at my studio desk. It's light enough for nimble playing and a nice slim build. I've had excellent customer service from Nektar in the past as well, which is why I went for this as my second controller.

Not bad at all!
GeorgeNS2ex73 06.12.2017
I'm definitely not a midi type of keyboardist. That aside, this little 49er is pretty good for it's price. It's quite responsive with the DAW that's coming with. I've had no software issues.

Pros:
great size, weight
good price
quality of assignable buttons
quality of pitch and mod wheels

cons:
the actual 49 keys. found them quite "plastic" and I'm not a huge fan of its touch response. However YES, I do think that for this price these are VERY much acceptable characteristics.

Yes, if you want something cheap that does the job very well done, I do suggest it. However for me it would be very difficult to use this as a primary keyboard due to its built-quality.

Standalone keyboard
Hoops 07.01.2022
This keyboard was excellent but it can only be used when connected to laptop. It was too advanced for my daughter who just wanted a keyboard to play and create music.

my first key is quite pleasant, but I think that the return of the keys could be more pleasant

Bought this for a music course. Was not expecting much.

But for the price, its actually very nice and compatible with the software I use which is FL Studio. So its a win win

Would recommend if you do not want to go broke but have a very nice product.
