I am very pleased! For beginners definitely a must.

With this keyboard, it is just as simple: I use Ableton to produce and I had the device just connect to the laptop and could start immediately. The keyboard key number is enough for me (by the 4 octave steps all notes are indeed covered) and the pads are great as well. I extend the 8, but is a matter of taste. With Ableton can also be easily programmed to dial, very good! Also, the pitch control on the top left is a great addition.
In all I give a strong buy recommendation, great value !!
