I bought an MX49 last year. It's a pretty good edition for a gigging rock keyboardist like me. I own about 10 keyboards, and wanted a 49 key keyboard to keep on the side of my two 61 key synths I keep out front to replace a very old one I used before. I sold my MOTIF ES rack and replaced it with the MX49. I'm glad I did. On songs where I want MOTIF sounds and need 61 keys, I simply MIDI it to my other keyboards. I've been a huge fan of the Korg M1 for a long time and use that is one of my two controller keyboards and for the M1's internal sounds. I'm mostly into software synths these days for lead synth & organ sounds. The MX49 is a nice edition. Being only 8 lbs is great for practice & traveling. In one of my bands, I setup an old computer running all software synths with a 61 key controller keyboard and I simply bring the MX49 to practice and use it for the built-in soundcard instead of setting up my other one. I use a single USB Midisport to I can connect two keyboards. For this band's rehearsal, all I have to bring is the MX49, connect a couple wires and that's it. The 61 key MOTIF keyboards are fairly heavy, and who wants to drag them to rehearsal? I play live and don't use sequencers or do recordings directly on my keyboards, so why pay for those extra features? I bought two (very expanded) M1's so I can leave one at home and one with another band. MOTIF's seem even heavier. I use the MX49 as a controller keyboard often too with VST synths and for it's internal sounds. I've also gone to rehearsals with just the MX49 (a little difficult for bass notes, but depending on the song I can do it). I've even plugged in my 25 key tiny Oxygen 8 controller into the MX49 using the MX49 sounds for both keyboards. Very simple, ultra portable practice solution. My regular rig has a lot of wires to hookup too, mixer, etc and it takes time just to connect it and disconnect it. The MX49 sounds are pretty good. Like the MOTIF ES, XS & XF sounds, their are still plenty of sounds they don't cover so great but their are plenty of good ones. I also make use of the 1/8" input jack for connecting my iPhone to run software synths on that, and playing back MP3 sounds. No mixer needed, very nice. In combination with other keyboards or software synths, I can highly recommend the MX series. Very affordable too.

Hi n8goulet, not sure if you'll this but since you bought one could you tell me if it has drum set patches? I've seen keyboardists hook up their piano and play rhythm into a looper, so I was wondering if I could do that or if its just the "performances' he demonstrated in the video. I kept reading the product description and it said 'percussion' but I just wanted to be really sure before I buy it...thanks for your reply in advance!

I'd love to see a manufacturer make a 61- or 76-key weighted keyboard. When I had a 61, I rarely ran out of notes, but I did not like the action. I know you buy smaller keyboards for portability, and the weighted action goes against that, but it might be a good middle ground. It might also be a good complement to my DGX-650.

I thought the main difference between a keyboard and a synthesizer was control. They both can have presets, but with a synth you can not only completely edit presets to your liking, you can also sculpt your own sounds from basic waves from the VCOs (tri, saw, square, etc). This seems more like a (good) keyboard. Am I wrong?

I got well disappointing when i learned that you basically have to live with the MX audio interface taking over as your main interface - asked a guy in the store that told me the "audio interface" was only to send audio to the DAW... but you have to run the MX as your main interface to do so, meaning i got no headphone amps, have to change interface while recording vocals etc... all in all, just as easy, if not easier to just record from old Motif as an instrument when needed... so just because i wanted to record Motif audio straight easier things just got more complicated/inconvenient :(

Is this a "Controller" keyboard which I'm not very familiar with understanding but I think is a keyboard that has to run into a PC or something because it has no sound of its own and gets its sounds via hooking up to somrething else? In other words is this NOT a stand-alone synth which generates its own sound? I'm interested in a 49 key synth but seems all the 49 key things are all "Controllers." Thanks.

I would recommend going with an 88-key if you plan on playing any classical piano (Chopin, Beethoven, etc.) But all models have a transpose feature, and the 49-key is both versatile and affordable. However if cost is an issue, and you do prefer an 88-key, you can get the 49-key which has the same tone engine and connect an 88 key Midi controller. This is in fact the same setup I use since I could not afford or find an 88-key at the time and cost and space were an issue. M-Audio has an affordable one with lots of options and the bundle pack would land somewhere around 750. The 88-key MX is almost 1100. Hope this helps! And because MIDI Expansion is always an option, the most frugal option is the 49-key.
