This is what I’m getting. Normal playing with fair amount of force that doesn’t feel like abuse
. It gets to 125 from what I see but I also notice a surprising amount of similar values like 117 or 113. I don’t know if it’s my playing of there’s something dodgy going on. Hope this helps.
I have the X6 mini since these are one of the few options for more than 37 mini keys. I wasn’t crazy about the “weighted” keys (more like spring-loaded), but I’ve gotten used to them now.
I’d complain about the pitch & mod touch strips except that I have a 37-key Korg microKey Air, and that size is arguably more appropriate for anything I’ll be doing pitch bends on.
I was kind of expecting to be disappointed and end up replacing it with a 61-key microKey, but overall I’ve been happy with it.
Thank you @supadom, really appreciate your help. It looks like MidiPlus works better here than Arturia Keystep. I already have ordered MidiPlus and definitely will let know my finding here.
I think I know what you mean re keys although at any rate you won’t be getting anywhere near weighted feel at this price point in either mini or full size keys world.
I’m not a keyboard player but I still carry the trauma of using mpk mini mk 1 in my original setup.
@filo01 it would be interesting to hear your opinion of midiplus vs key step in terms of keybed.
What I really like about midiplus is that it happily powers off all my devices including my ancient 6s.
True. Of course I wasn’t looking for weighted keys. I missed that in the manual before buying. So it worked out that they aren’t really weighted. But I still would’ve preferred simple synth-action.
I bought a mini because of its size, look and good reviews. The keybed on that thing is a nightmare.
Now looking for something much better, same size or smaller.
I can confirm what you stated about max velocity above, @supadom. I was able to get up to 125 too. It wasn't the biggest issue. I was disappointed with the quality of the product. I found 4 keys that scrubbed (even audibly) against each other so I returned it within the hour.
EDIT: I didn't mention one thing. There should be 3 velocity curves in MidiPlus X3 Mini. But in fact, only first one is a real curve, second is fixed to velocity 64 and third is fixed to 128.
My experience was the opposite. No squeaks and the keyboard feels solid. Certainly more solid than the equivalents from Korg, Akai and Novation all of which I owned and used extensively.
I don’t know about keystep but if the board is anything like mini lab mk ll then I’d say they’re about the same feel.
All I can say is that it’s either that you got a naff one or who knows what that other thing was.
Anyhow. It seems like you’re not talking about the same product.
@supadom I agree that I bought a defective piece and the MidiPlus is a good choice in general. There are too many good reviews for this not to be true. But I bought several goodies during this year where I had to solve a warranty repairs and frankly I'm tired to say again to seller "hey this is defective, I will wait 3 weeks, send me another one, maybe it will be better next time".
👍
I have the 61 mini key version . I'm not a synth player , I just wanted a cheap descent compact keyboard . My only issue is that black keys feel stiffer than the white keys
