Excellent MIDI controller.
This is the second MIDI controller I got and I really recommend it. It's excellent to start out and for professionals. The software and plug-ins included make it even a better deal, nearly unbeatable in my opinion.
Pros: It's a nice MIDI controller, it gives everything a home producer needs.
Cons: The pads sensitivity could be better but that probably can be changed withing Arturia MIDI software.

Great included software
This is my first MIDI-controller, so keep that in mind when reading this review. I went with Arturia because of the great software you get with it. You can have hours upon hours of fun with the included sounds/software/plugins. The software sounds great and works very well with the MIDI-controller (which I guess makes sense since both are from Arturia).
The quality of the keys and pads feel like plastic crap, but I guess this is the case for any MIDI-controller/keyboard in this price range. For comparison I tried the similarly priced Akai (MPK Mini MK3 in red) and can say that they both feel like crap. I prefer the Arturia Keys and the Akai pads are marginally better (bit nicer feel/feedback) imo. But as I said: a plastic feel is probably to be expected from products in this price range, so I won't be too critical of it.
All in all I'm happy with this purchase and I feel I made the right choice for my first step in to keys/MIDI.

good quality
i use it at my home studio, i thought that this amount of keys will be enught, but now i look forward to but a 69 keys. it a good quality keyboard good pads. good velocity, the one thing i didn't like is that when you swithing the ocateves up or down it is blinking that attracts the attention. to work further you i always have to get it back to standart octave. also i couldnt find in the app where i can change the colos of pad. i switched to change it but it doesnt change even after i saved the parameters

Great for producing
I bought it after watching few reviews on youtube and they were right, it's great.
Very easy to install, portable and even with the lite version of arturia lab (the vst that comes with it) you get plenty of aswesome sounds.
Intuitive controls and the knobs are a great feature for twikning your sounds on the run.
If you're looking for a controller for your Daw just buy it.

Very handy
Very useful since its so small and can connect to all kinds of devices. However, midi out would have made it even better

Nice keyboard for beginners
Bought this for music production,
Works just fine, nice visual
Comes with a lite version of Analog Lab which is cool
Only drawback is the size, 25 keys isn't enough imo
Quality build

Good product
Good and compact controller. Keys are minis but still feeling very well. Qality is also not bad for this price. It works well and is exactly what I was looking for.
