  • Great Programable Controller

    Keys feel good, pads feel good and plenty of buttons, knobs and sliders to work with. It's constructed well and relatively heavy but not too heavy. It does not move when you play it. I use Logic Pro and have been able to assign the sliders, knobs and buttons to do what I need. I basically started from scratch and threw out all akai's presets and software. It now works great and I can get it to do whatever I need. There are three banks of all the sliders, knobs and buttons so you can assign each bank to control something different or a combo of things for each bank. The programmable lights for the drum pads are great and fun to play around with. There are four banks for the drum pads and you can assign a different color combo for each bank. Overall I really like this controller and it's working great. I recommend it but be prepared to do some controller assignment work in your DAW software and within the unit itself.

  • This keyboard rocks!

    This keyboard rocks! It was a little pricey but we are having a great time playing with all of its features. The MPK249 has some beautiful presets that make it easy to work with popular DAWs like Reason, Logic & Cubase. Using the drum pad is awesome and so is assigning the sliders to control knobs & parameters on vst instruments. We have yet to utilize all features, but we are very happy so far with this midi keyboard.

  • Akai 2.0

    The developers at akai definitely stepped up their game with the MPK249. The key action feels a whole lot better and for me the highlight are the new pads! Not only do the feel better and better constructed but you can color assign the pads. Well...that may not be a necessity but it is pretty freakin cool!!! Spend your money on the new one. You might save 100-150 between the first and second one but trust me you will not regret the purchase especially if you're a beat maker and into triggers etc... Akai MPK249 #5stars

  • Solid midi controller

    Perfect in working with logic pro tools and reason DAWs. It's not as light as one would believe a 49 to be but with semi weighted keys 8knovs and faders 16 pads it's a good buy for music professionals if you don't necrsssarily need a 61

  • Description wasn't exactly accurate

    Keyboard was in mint condition. However the screen that displays the menu was not working at all, which was not stated in the description. But luckily I had this part for the keyboard and was able to repair myself. Other than that I have no complaints.
