When it comes to taste of keys and quality feeling I guess it often comes to personal taste. I compared the Arturia Essential and NI with the Launchkey MK3 and by far the Novation felt better from keys to construction to weight and quality. The Arturia compared to the Novation let me unimpressed. It felt cheap and the keys were pretty loose compared to the Novation. I liked the NI too, but it misses the pads completely. You say the opposite. Funny how far taste differences. :)

I thought the Arturia keybed was awful too. Arturia is notorious for bad keybeds on the lower end models (sadly Korg does the same on much more expensive Kross and Krome). I did sample an NI A series and it was ok, though not as good as their KK models.

You’re my favorite KZitemr for info about music creation, midi controllers, etc. because you explain things carefully, mostly in easy to understand layman’s terms and offer comparisons to hear in similar and lower price points when possible. As a total beginner to music (I sang in the choir in high school but I never even learned how to read music) who bought an Arturia Minilab Mk II I’ve been a little overwhelmed by the terminology within the instruments and DAW. Understanding what compression is, or chorus, or sends, or the difference between synth lead vs synth pad, or reverb or delay is a bit confusing without a starting framework. Do you have a video, or know of a resource that explains simply the glossary of terms commonly found within DAWs, the common effects you’ll tend to see, as well as the usual settings one uses to alter instrument sounds?

Hi Christopher. I don't have a video with a glossary of terms, but I suggest watching my other videos - anything that interests you, because I always explain things in laymans terms - very simply. I'll do a video about compression sometime soon. But in the meantime, watch this sidechain compression tutorial to understand a little more kzitem.info/news/bejne/2nqI2Z17rpaEhIo

2 Questions... 1 - Controller Redundancy: Are the pads/controls ultimately redundant for those with a PUSH2 as centerpiece (plus APC40 or LaunchControlXL)? I’m a beginner with Ableton (and may use Logic also), buying a full setup, and trying to avoid overlap in functionality. I love the idea of deep integration with Ableton, but perhaps a simple set of keys is adequate with a robust setup centered on Push? 2 - Multiple Midi Keys: Most advice/videos focus on the pros/cons of individual keyboards, and comparisons with peers; but what advice do you have for those buying multiple keys, i.e. a mini (for simple) and larger (for traditional playing). Perhaps a no-frills mini + a larger with all the bells & whistles (knobs/sliders). Perhaps from different manufacturers to get more total plugins/instruments?
@robertgarvansnyder4665
3 жыл бұрын
As for the pads: I’ve also got a Push 2 and am considering the Launchkey. I could see a real value in having one set of pads for launching clips, and one for programming drums, rather than toggling back and forth. I do all my drum programming on push and love the scale functionality, but ultimately I want to learn stronger keyboard skills. Also, very into having a set of faders, which Push lacks.
3 жыл бұрын
@@robertgarvansnyder4665 I know that feeling, sometimes I just use the keys on the Komplete Kontrol M32 instead change the mode for the Launchpad X to drums, since the synth action mini keys are not bad for fast drum You can do it all just on the Launchpad X? Yes, I can even use the vitual faders to chage the values and control everyting, so that give you the max control, but I need to change a lot each mode to do it, that loss of time make all more hard to me. I thinked on get another launchpad but I preffer keys and having the faders for fast access to volume control is nice to have because the virtual on the Launchpad X are not too precise

You make a fair review. On integration, Arturia delivers VST instrument integration with their own bundle and NI Komplete Kontrol has similar integration with their own software bundles, but I use Logic X VSTs! What your saying is that neither the Novation, the Arturia nor the NI offer Logic integration at the instrument level? Those bundles from Arturia and NI are ‘Lite’ versions and the upgrade costs for their complete collections range from $399 to $599. That’s a big extra cost.

After about 3 years, the Impulse's screen went blue where it doesn't show anything on the display. Shortly after it stopped working altogether. The Launchkey, only 6 months hold, the 2nd B-Flat key from the left feels lose. Almost like it's not seated properly. Contacted Novation, June 3rd. Still heard nothing back. Having to use my Arturia Keylab Essential. I'm not even the biggest fan of Arturia's keyboards, but at least they don't break. Novation Keybaords are great.....when they're not broke.

Picked up the arturia essential a couple weeks ago and pretty unhappy with the daw controls - no track selection in logic, the faders are imprecise and feel cheap and the pads are super stiff, plus you get very limited controls within their included software instruments. The novation sounds great for daw control but lacking any included software instruments and a lesser keybed are holding me back. The Komplete kontrol A series looks to be the best of both worlds. Better daw controls than the arturia, not as good as novation but still gives you what you need. Better keybed and much more control over their included software instruments. No drum pads but honestly keys work fine for drums, I’m no finger drummer so doubt I’ll miss having those. Looks like I’ll be swapping out the essential for the Komplete kontrol a. Thanks for helping me along in my decision!

They made a huge design mistake moving the sliders to the right and the pads/twist buttons to the left. Most people are right handed and they have no fine control with their left hand. It takes much more precision to twist knobs and hit pads than to move a slider up/down. Now most people will have to cross their hands, or only use the right hand, like you did when hitting the pads. I wonder what the hell were they thinking changing the perfect MK2 layout.

Wow..you'd give up the S88? In my opinion, the SL is a beast of a keyboard, but particularly for hardware synth users. If you don't have hardware synths, then it may not be worth the switch. But if you use Ableton, you may really appreciate the integration.

Sanjay C I’m an Ableton Suite user and own Komplete 10 Ultimate CE so both are beneficial, but I feel like the more I produce music the less I use my keys/hardware and more I’m just building everything on the software with drawing in MIDI, Automation etc - especially when you have mastering or project templates pre-made for yourself. I’m not sure...I’ll try and put my S88 up for sale and, if it sells it sells, but we’ll see! 🤷♂️

Hi Sanjay, thank you for the great video. If I am looking to formally practice and learn how to play Piano, as well as continue producing in Ableton, would you recommend this keyboard? I appreciate your time.

I bought it because it reminds me of my Syntheziser Korg M3 where you can also assign your own chords to the pads. but I don't like the velocity of this midi keyboard it's too light which make your midi sounds plastic. It's great to have since it light and portable but I keep it at that. I won't replace my heavy clumsy Korg M3 for this. Also the pads I can't drum on it old drum machines are way better.

Sanjay. Thx for the informative video on the MK3 49. I’ve been trying to figure out what get to go with my Scarlett 2i2 and Ableton. I plan on using it for synth sounds and to tap out my beats. Also bass lines and organ. Being an ex drummer as well as playing guitar and piano that is the most intuitive approach for me. I will also be adding a tracks of live guitar, vocal, etc. Will the MK3 connect midi out to the Scarlett and then work with Ableton? Almost seems to easy. Gary D

Actually, you'll connect the MK3 directly to your computer, not the Scarlett. And everything will work fine together.

Hey Sanjay, I am learning to produce music but I am also learning to play the piano. I do you reccommend to buy one of these to serve both purposes or am I better buying a mini Midi and a regular digital piano(With weighted keys, 81 keys, etc). Love the content!

If you're learning classical music, then I'd recommend a fully weighted keyboard. But otherwise, any of these will be fine - especially for just composing and performing.

Thanks for this and all your videos, Sanjay. I’ve been watching loads of them as I prepare to take the plunge into finally producing my own music. Do you think a Launchkey and a Push 2 would be redundant? I’m a novice and everyone says the Push 2 is amazing and practically a must-buy, but I like the idea of having a keyboard on the desk as well to play virtual instruments as well. But in this video you said the Arturia and NI keyboards are stronger for virtual instruments. So I wonder, is it perhaps wiser to get a Push 2 with an NI keyboard?

And what if you are picky about the key feel? I'm in the market for a 49-key, and I had just settled on the Alesis Vi49, for two reasons: The 4x4 drum pad layout and the semi-weighted keys. This one has me on the fence, because it looks really, really nice in every other way, but those light, synth-action keys make me sad.. Why don't any of these mid-level controllers have semi-weighted keys? And what do you think of the Alesis Vi series?
