You know you want one Socko..

– Aftertouch ?
– Pitch bend / modulation wheels (or touch strips or johstick) ?
….
no pitch bend 🙁
I heard you like mini keys on your micro board of minuscule keys. So I got you a miniscule version of the mini keys.
It’s like a Korg MicroKey, but without the great response and all those pesky features.
but it has an “i” in front of it – how are you supposed to take it seriously if it isn’t called iMicrokey?
As a trainee pedant with some musical experience , isnt C-C1-C2 ” two full octaves ” ….so what’s this about “+ 1 note ” ?
Small typo. They meant to say two major sevenths + 1 note.
On the plus side it comes with a bunch of FREE apps that you need to download from an app store!? And does the box also contain air that I can breath? They can’t stop giving – well, apart from features and specs.
“a full-featured playing experience” ——LOL——
A pity it has no controllers………
Shove that in my pocket!
The “lightning connector” cable has the wrong connector on the other end, so it can’t be used with the keyboard it is packaged with. So as the device comes from IK Multimedia, it can NOT be used with iPad/iPhone which requires a lightning connector. Didn’t anybody at IK Multimedia even look at them when they arrived for distribution?!? The Lightning cable has a 7-pin mini-DIN connector on the other end, but the keyboard itself only has a micro-USB connection. Who was responsible for such stupidity? And for sites like this to post this sort of review — it’s as if nobody at synthtopia even looked at one of these units, because if they did, they would see that the lightning cable doesn’t work and would mention it in this review!
David – Reviews have ‘review’ in the headline and discuss the pros and cons of the product.
