Hi All… Apologies in advance for the long post. I was just wondering what you guys are using for gigging keyboard MIDI controllers that play nicely with GigPerformer and that you’ve had good experiences with in general. I’ve been a little distraught with what’s out there now. Seems like in only a…

So yeah, Novation’s SL MkIII did come out, and turned out to be very silly. Ok I understand there may be some features in there that may be cool and work for some… I guess the sequencer seems to have been given a lot of thought and the prime real estate on the panel. But seriously? LEDs on the keys …

[image] LilyM: Oh well, still searching for a great controller designed for live work. Man I would pay any amount of money for that. “Any amount”? :money_mouth_face: Then i would recommend to contact “Keyboard Manufaktur Berlin”, they will build a keyboard for you exactly the way you want it …

Has your code 61 given any midi hung notes, ? apparently was notorious for that , stores were final salesing them…, I had to return 2, until I settled on a sl88, ( since then have Nordstage 2, due to computer reliance)

Yeah, it does… unfortunately. One time, one of the first notes hangs (this can be ‘loosend’ again by sweeping over the keys, playing lots of notes), another time it’s after about two hours, sometimes it drops out completely, other times it works like a charm… i never know how it will behave. First…

…and Thankyou for your help on this forum , we are lucky to have your problem solving skills

[image] dhj: Oh ye of little faith !!! :laughing: :innocent: Forgiveness!!! I will instantly crawl down to my cold and damp cellar rooms and give my self some self-mortification for such blasphemous thoughts… :confounded::lying_face:

[image] Wired: until I settled on a sl88 What i always wanted to know (but i never found someone to ask): How ‘good’ are those little levers as a replacement for pitchbend- and Mod-wheels? I cannot imagine that these really work well.

They suck! I use an SL88 for touring because I can lift them. As a weighted controller, it’s quite nice but as a control surface (including pitch bend and mod)” it’s useless Edit: just to be clear, by they, I’m referring specifically about the use of a joystick rather than actual wheels which I’m u…

[image] dhj: They suck! Hmmm… that’s what i actually expected. I thought about using the Numa Compact 2X, maybe in combination with the little Behringer controller-board… but without Pitchbend- and Modwheel: No way. If there only was a separate wheel-box on the market, but there obviously i…

Looking for feedback: MIDI Controller keyboards

I think it would be better for you to ask this on the dedicated Keylab topic below. The contributors of the original script will be the best ones to help.
