@@thisisalbe I think it is nice, I often use the keyboard function on it. The only thing I don't like that much about it is that the pads are not velocity sensitive. But it is a fun tool to have for fl studio😊

Tragic. The MK3 is much better. Maybe you could sale the MK2 and upgrade? Honestly the only reason I would upgrade would be for the infinity knobs. If you don't use the knobs much...I wouldn't worry about it

Hey dude. Need to ask if the midi keybord sounds natural when you play on it. I mean if it's possible to reach the natural velocity automatically like on real synths or pianos.

They sound pretty similar. FL studio and most keyboards have it where you can set the velocity or sensitivity so that is something you’ll want to play with too
