I advise you to look at reviews and comparisons before buying, as this model is more suitable for those who travel often. If this is about you, then you have found the perfect "mini" controller that is very easy to work with for both beginners and professionals. With its pros. Light weight, sensitive pads (you can't find a better system with 8 pads at this price), easy to connect to most DAWs + many free plug-ins out of the box. Some cons: The quality of the keys is clearly not the strongest point of this controller, but for their money they perfectly perform all the necessary functions.
