Re: What MIDI Controller for MOTM-650?

2005-09-19 by peng3002

I have a M-Audio/Radium 61 key controller with sliders and knobs and it 
sucks. No monopreasure and I already had a key go bad after less than a 
year of use. There is a Synthesizers.com keyboard on Ebay right now. 
You don't even need a MIDI-CV with this one. It can function as a MIDI-
CV for other MIDI devices, too.
