For the last 2-3 years I’ve used 2 controllers: Studiologic SL88GRAND and Nektar P6. I added the SL Mixface so I could have additional faders and buttons for a few controls. It’s been great. I feel that Studiologic has one of the best weighted keybeds on the market. I’m sure their next iteration will be include MIDI 2.0. Nektar P6/P4 have great daw integration that I find myself using often to find tune plugins, recording and overdubbing work flow. They also have one motorized fader for recording automation. It’s also a decent for playing organ vsti’s once you midi learn the functions. These have worked well for me and I haven’t really needed anything else.

[@willmcelroy6376]

Does it have aftertouch? Or does the midi 2.0 make aftertouch negligible?

[@digableskillz]

Bro, what are you using to control how you switch between the keyboards on the synth wall?

[@Johnmike]

I show in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXyrn5yJqLmenpYsi=ih82-P65TDphb3mH

[@djshmul1]

Nice rewiev thanks

[@wilkopiano]

The only drawback i see is the lack of sticky mod wheel. Which is why i like roland fantom08 (but no AT) cause it has both joystick and traditional mod wheel. For me i settled on komplete s88 and a roland a800 or a49. But quality of roland a88 is probably better than either arturia and s88 keybed. I already have sticky key on komplete s88 (don’t seem be durable at all)

[@tonylancer7367]

I do wonder which you prefer (in action) between the "almighty" VPC-1 and the A-88 MK2, but I think I already know the answer.

[@Johnmike]

VPC-1 all day everyday…I still have it in my live room and I use it for performance stuff…but everyday use…Roland A88

[@hermandavid1757]

Question how is the keybed feel compared to the rd2000…I’ve touched the rd but have never had the opportunity to touch the a88

[@tuneunleashed]

Very slow…I don’t like the PHA-4 compared to the Keybed on the RD2000

[@Johnmike]

Yea it’s a difference…it’s been a while since I touched an RD-2000

[@donleino]

​​@@tuneunleashed@Johnmike i find the pha4 lighter, ive tried the pha50 a few times and always come to the conclusion of it feeling to sluggish . I played a roland fp nuvola( pha4) as costco recently and was FLYING , feels more like a light upright to me . Its fascinating the different perceptions between the pha4 and pha50 goes to show you

[@richiekeyz8245]

Could you compare it to the SL88 Studio

[@Johnmike]

@@richiekeyz8245 check this video I did… kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4mrZqSQbr91oJIsi=qGwDtaT5ASmx_KTs

[@Ironically-Sarcastic]

Bro, if you really only care about the feel of the keyboard, and you don't need a bunch of extra functionality, then the FP10 and FP30 by Roland have an identical key bed and are like half the price or less.

[@Johnmike]

@@Ironically-Sarcastic there’s a few things functionally wise I still use that makes it worth having…and I talk about it in the video

[@FLAVMEDIA]

Less is More:))

[@simbaking6338]

When since you divorced your SL 88 you painted Nord red? ...Lol.....She must be jealous because you told her that she was your favorite...Youre a playa!!!
