From what I read and saw (I was looking around at the time) the reviews on this one were quite mixed. A lot of people were really positive about how (for example) the new Arturia Minilab really gave folks a lot of DAW control, where AKAI had done the bare minimum. Others mentioned how it’s this wierd size that’s got unsatisfyingly small keys but it’s quite big, so it’s not that portable. So then your natural competition is more like a 37 key full size.
I actually think the idea is kinda stellar though, it’s a nice balance of quick input device for casual desk bashing but also a serious music making tool. You got enough pads, enough keys and plenty of options in terms of plugging it into gear if that’s your thing. I think Arturia could have nailed something like this but they went down the 25 key route again.
