I am looking for a cheap keyboard/midi controller that has a touch-sensitive option with a sustain pedal. Maybe something by Yamaha?

Hey all, I'm rather new to this and I am trying to figure out if there is anyway I can use a keyboard with a midi out as a midi controller?

Thanks,

I have been using a keybaord to control my BFD drums for about a year, and I find that it negatively affects my drum creativity due to the inconvenience to use and the more unnatural feel compared to real drums.

Hi,

This is my first thread, but just wanted to see what people's thoughts were on the two midi controllers. I am trying to decide which one to purchase.

Would appreciate input from people who also may own either controller.

Looking at using it with Apple Mac + Logic Pro 8.

Thanks.

Since christmas is coming up i thought id ask for some kind of midi keyboard as a present. the budget i got is around 150$ or less, it doesn't have to be the best just good enough for me to get a feel. i want more of a synth action controller but don't know where to start.

here's what i'm looking at for controllers in my price:

I'd like to get an inexpensive controller, say around 49 keys to use for/with the synth, pad, etc. plugins in my DAW. Running an iMac with LE8.

I have an M-Audio Oxygen 8 V2 Keyboard/Controller (Pretty basic I know but will do for now) and have been using it in Reason for a while, mainly just the keyboard but would like to make use of the controllers on it.

if i lightly touch a key it plays the sample back at full volume. if i hit the key hard it can barely be heard. what is this all about? i checked the setting on the controller (fatar no internal sounds) it has worked fine for years and all of the sudden this happens.

thanks

When I play the midi notes Im getting pops and clicks even when I record in logic I get the pops and clicks . Has anybody had this issue and how do I solve it?

Is there any way I could reset my E-MU XBoard 49 Key? I bought it hardly used from Guitar Center, and when I play a note on the controller it is just slightly delayed when it comes through my speakers. I am pretty sure I set it up right, and installed everything correct. Could I reset it? Is it possible? Maybe that would fix the very slight delay. Anything adivce would be of help.
