Nektar SE61 - USB MIDI Controller Keyboard with Nektar DAW Integration, Black

Great Keyboard, bought this for practicing so far still holds up, I use it with my iPhone, my tablet and Mac computer and works great, integrates with any software literally!. works great with MainStage and keyscape. which it could bring a pedal, but you would have to buy one additional to your purchase, but it does what it says it does and is not heavy at all, you can bring it with you anywhere.

Great!

The plastic feels a little cheap, but for a ~$100 usd midi keyboad it's pretty great. Full sized keys are a huge plus for my fingers, and it works easily and didn't require anything other than a DAW (no software or firmware for the keyboard itself - just plug and play)If you're just thinking about dabbling in music with a computer and you're not sure which direction you want to go or what even you are doing, this is an invaluable piece of affordable equipment that will be used even as you grow and acquire more gear. You'll always have a need for a good keyboard.

This is an inexpensive controller that works for whatever you need. The keys feel kind of weird but it does the job as a usb controller.

I had previously purchased an extremely cheap smaller keyboard thinking it would be good to teach myself to play. Turns out I was so very wrong, the small and awkwardly stiff keys and the simple lack of more keys wound up being extremely demotivating. Now I bought this Nektar 49 key and I immediately could tell this was the one. The build quality is pretty cheap feeling but not in a way that you'll notice while actually using it because the keys themselves feel great and theres no flexing or creeking! For being a fraction of the price for any other decent midi keyboard I cannot praise it enough, I liked it so much I bought the 61 key version which I found was the perfect size for most songs I want to play. Works great in Synthesia too as shown in the pictures!

Very functional

Item arrived as described.

M-audio is also great. I've had one of their keyboards before and had no issues. But if I remember correctly, this one is less expensive and does just as well. Everything works as expected. Nothing necessarily sets it apart from others, it's just a very basic midi keyboard with minimal features, which I wanted, all those other buttons on fancy models you have to program and aren't really that useful.
