Akai MPK 261

Hey gang, I’m looking to get a controller keyboard. Specifically the Akai MPK 261. I’ve never used a controller before, how easy is it to program to GP? Right now I’m using a Casio CTS -500 and Korg nano controller. I love the sounds in it(hybrid rig) but am really looking to have all the controlls built into the keyboard. Plus the Akai has 3 pedal inputs, that would be really handy for me. Thoughts?

Thanks

Ray

I have one of these. It’s very versatile and easy to integrate into GP. Lots of options with the faders, knobs, and pads.
On the downside the keybed isn’t my favorite, and the keys are smaller than standard.
It’s a solid controller though.
