Great keyboard!

I really like the feel of the keyboard! The build is very solid! However, I wish you could buy it without all the knobs and sliders. The Analog Lab software is nice, but you can't edit any of the patches without paying for an expensive upgrade (almost 500 Euro if you want the whole package). Also, it would be good if you could program the pads separate from the knobs/sliders. Logic Pro integration was not so straight-forward - it was not documented well in the manual and I had to look it up on YouTube to make it work. Smart controls needed to be setup separately with different CCs. (The default cc mapping would not work with smart controls, due to conflict with the Analog Lab plug-in.) Nevertheless, I would recommend this keyboard if you want something that is nice to play and simple to work with!
