(Also, in the end, these seem a little overblown for what I need but not out of question.) The Nektar Panorama 49 is also intriguing me (not the least of which because it has a nice screen. MIDI controllers like Artual Keylab 49 Mk II is very nice and Novation SL 49 III but in the end they also have no sound engine, no dedicated synth controls and in particular one of the Keylab’s bigger features is the software which doesn’t have iOS version. (Question is: do I really care about that when the touch screen is right there? Or does having mixer control on the board allow you to have other info on the screen, etc.
Cubasis 3 le full size#
And for instance the Yamaha MX49 would fit the bill pretty well (class compliant, synth engine, 49 full size keys) … but it has no sliders for integrating with the DAW. The other issue with MIDI controllers is they have no sound engine inside.
Cubasis 3 le mod#
Although the same could be said of MOD X, which is also on my radar.) If there were a 49-key version, I think it would already be en route to me. (I understand making a MIDI controller synth friendly is probably an awkward proposition but I think the way the Fantom does it could be a way forward for a future controller keyboard. The problem with most MIDI controllers is the controls are incredibly generic and don’t really make sense from a synthesis workflow. But I’m looking to keep things as streamlined as possible and would much prefer something class compliant, which sadly the ML is not.) Mini keys are off the table or I’d just stick with an interface and my extra Korg Minilogue and an audio interface. (61 FULL SIZE keys is doable but my goal is 49.
Cubasis 3 le portable#
However, IT IS massively expensive and ultimately not nearly as compact and portable as I’d like. For instance, the Roland Fantom in many ways is the closest example to what I’m looking for: quality construction, great sound engines, nice screen, full set of sliders, knobs and most importantly (and pretty much unique among every option) a set of controls dedicated to the synth engine. Price isn’t really a concern if I’m getting everything I wanted. If anybody has some suggestions for me based on my criteria below, I’d love to hear it. What do you like about it? What are you using and what AREN’T you using on your MIDI controller that maybe you thought was important initially? I’m really curious to hear how Cubasis 3 users are integrating MIDI keyboards or control surfaces into your workflow. I’ve been searching high and low for the perfect MIDI keyboard controller for Cubasis 3 and I must say NOTHING seems to tick all the boxes.
