M-AUDIO Keystation Mini 32 MK3

This is a budget no-frills entry-level device. It's great value for its price point, but it has very few features. My biggest bug bear with the device is that it comes with a very short USB A to USB Mini B cable. The cable length is probably fine if you're using it with a laptop, but the cable length is completely unusable for any other kind of device. Don't think you can just use a cable extender either, the device is unreliable/incompatible with USB hubs and extension cables. Lengthy USB Mini B cables are available on Amazon, but stores don't typically stock them because nothing uses Mini B anymore. The end result is a budget item that probably doesn't work out of the box for you. You will need to spend more time and effort getting a replacement cable.

The USB port fell out the 2nd time I ever tried to unplug the cable. It simply fell off the PCB and landed beside the controller. There was never any stress on the cable. There was an isolated "anti-tension" loop in the USB cable and plenty of slack, even without the loop (48" cable 24" inches from the computer). I have owned it 2 years, so it is well out of warranty, but two years of gentle, virtually non-existent use shouldn't cause it to just fall apart.

Keys were too small for me, unplayable. Better suit players with VERY small hands. Top marks to DJ/Mannys for smooth exchange for another more suitable USB keyboard.

Prima ding voor de prijs verwacht er niet te veel van goed voor beginnende producers of als je piano wilt leren spelen ben er zeer tevreden mee doet wat het moet doen en zeker voor de prijs een aanrader

This piece is the missing link in my home studio set up. Although I am still learning to use it, I am very impressed with the ease of use.
