I’d like to start with a Big Thank you to Thomann for their exceptional packaging!
They did a great job wrapping the original box inside another one, ensuring it arrived safely, even if the couriers weren’t too gentle with it.
As for the Arturia, I’m not an expert, but as a beginner, I find it absolutely amazing. Whether you're using it for music production or just having fun with a MIDI keyboard, it delivers a fantastic experience. The endless rotary knobs feel great to the touch and provide smooth control, while the faders also have a satisfying, responsive feel. The keys are well built, offering a nice touch and smooth operation.
The small display is incredibly handy, allowing you to navigate and control everything directly from the keyboard without needing a mouse. Overall, this is a great and affordable product from Arturia.
One of the biggest highlights is the included software bundle, you pay just $200 and get an impressive selection of software, including Arturia Pro, which alone costs as much as the keyboard.
