I have really small hands, and this keyboard has narrow keys... sounds like a perfect match, right?

Pros:
1. Narrow keys (I love narrow keys!). Normally I barely reach an octave. On this I can even reach a 10th!
2. It's small and lightweight, if that's your thing.

Cons:
3. Velocity sensitivity is VERY poor, it is almost impossible to play anything with any consistency and expression. I've tried all the velocity settings in the KORG KONTROL Editor.
4. The keys have to go ALL the way down for a the signal to register. You are going to miss a lot of notes if you are playing runs, arpeggios or anything which isn't slow and requires expression. To get ppp, pp notes or any quiet notes the keys has to be pressed VERY, VERY slowly to point of being completely unplayable.
5. Garbage grade cheap plastic build, not worth the money.

It's not good even for pads, rhodes or synths. The poor velocity sensitivity kills this thing. It's basically unusable for anything but banging basic chords.

Competent mini keys controller but quality could be better

Philly Garcia 14.02.2023

Adequate controller for basic function with sustain pedal,usb in and easy setup.
Narrow keys provide confort in terms of width, but the key length makes it quite difficult to play when it comes to the black keys - the fingers come too close to the key end and some chords become very akward to do.

Alles was ein Midi Keyboard braucht

Anonymous 22.01.2017

Ein idealer Begleiter für Projektstudios oder Homestudios. Durch die verkleinerte Tastutur findet das Keyboard auf jedem Schreibtisch Platz. Trotzdem hat man mit vollen 5 Oktaven alle spielerischen Freiheiten, die mir bei anderen kompakten Keyboards fehlten.
Die Tastatur spielt sich hervorragend und ausgeglichen trotz des geringen Gesamtgewichts und der kompakter Größe des Produkts. Ein hervorragendes Keyboard das hält was es verspricht. Keine Extras wie Drehpotis - nur eine grundsolide Tastatur. Mehr braucht man für meisten Anwendungen nicht.
