    NI Kontrol Number 1 .

    AKAI MPK249 is great only for studio work and DAWS. Advantages: Compact, good pads. Disadvantages: 1. Not suitable for live stage work with external keyboard/Modules. Since AKAI keyboard transmits only one midi channel at a time 1 -16 global , which makes impossible using multitimbral midi channels all at ones and Impossible within the AKAI to split key zones, layers etc. 2. Keyboard rubber buttons are failed within couple of years of use. Some keys not playing at all, some keys giving high peak velocities which require cleaning and servicing. 3.Sustain pedal polarity is not configurable in the menu of AKAI. If sustain pedal does not have switch , buy new appropriate pedal . 4.Lack of soft editors and customer support. 5. Akai fails working connected to USB hub, but only connected strait to the computer or via adapter. Number of times is not recognized by Windows 10.

    Why do all of these controllers have to feel like shit? I have an MPK249 (an older one) - and it's not horrible. I replaced the pads with MPCstuff Thick/fat pads - because the ones that came on it were 100% absolute trash. I tried soooo many controllers. All the new ones are absolute crap. I'd be happy to pay thousands of dollars for a decent controller - but they just don't exist anymore. I did find one controller in Europe that felt like a DX7 which was pretty great.

The content is probably AI generate, and on any case very poor.for example « safe to use certified », or inconsistent use of « touch sensitive » feature vs after touch. Many time image don’t match the product review. Seems like poorly executed automatically generated content.
