Keith McMillenK-Board Smart Keyboard

J'étais sceptique en recevant le K-Board, mais franchement, c'est un produit solide, esthétiquement beau et fonctionnellement super !Si seulement Keith Mc Millen pouvait sortir un Synth/Sampler basé sur le K-Board/QuNexus dans le même genre que l'OP-1 en mieux... je serais le premier à me jeter dessus.

Come da descrizione, ottimo prodotto ,ben fatto, unica pecca e l’essere privo di connessione Wi-Fi.. perché privo di alimentazione alternativa ( batt.)...

I bought this unit to use as a lighting control surface. I needed something that was sturdy, sensitive and easy to get around. This little guy fit the bill perfectly. It can definitely take a beating- the manufacturer claims it will hold up against spills as well! I haven't tested this, but it seems likely, the build quality is high. Ergonomically, the K-board does a good job of walking the size/layout line. Its a pretty small unit, I managed to fit it into little amount of space I had left in my lighting world. Even with its size, I find the button layout easy to get around and not overly cramped. If anything, I could see this unit being overly sensitive. Thought the layout is pretty comfy, the buttons react fast and without very much pressure, so there is a risk of accidental triggering by brushing a finger over the wrong area. I'm not willing to count this against the unit- sensitivity is rarely a bad thing. All this plus the fact that it was pretty quickly and easily recognized by my control software (Martin MPC), made it the right purchase for me. Now if only MIDI mapping was just a touch simpler in MPC.......

Using this with Reaper as a midi controller. Fantastic kit with a very competitive price. This board is so tactile that it begs to be played; it's immediate and hassle free interface with my DAW has augmented my workflow massively. The creative parameters like TILT and PRESSURE can be turned on or off more greater tweakability, and the bundled software to edit parameters is beautifully basic and simple to implement. To be critical, the BEND key could use some work (it tends to be unresponsive, and often jumps to max value before then bending the note) which is something to be considered if you are banking on that for predictable swoop effects. Also, the octave buttons could get moved to the top left corner of the board, away from the playing keys. I have more than once changed octave mid performance. Minor gripes however. This thing should be eating up the market - surprised more folk aren't aware of it.
