**This review is based on my use with Abelton Live 9. This controller was built specifically with Abelton Live in mind, and if you buy it new if should come with Abelton Live Lite (an intro version of the full software. It's not a demo, so you can use it forever).**I love this keyboard, the keybed feels really nice to me (it's what I'm used to). It's not like a real piano, but they are semi-weighted. But just fyi some people don't like the feel of this keybed, they say it feels like a toy (but I don't think so).A lot of people also complain that the knobs feel cheap. They feel perfectly fine to and come on, the controller is like $187 right now on Amazon, stop complaining!I love inKontrol. I can control every part of my DAW without taking my hands off the keyboard (mapping helps) and the pads feel like heaven. My favorite feature on this keyboard is how I can launch, record and stop clips from the drumpads then a second later I can just as easily do a drum solo! But as I say that, if you're gettin this keyboard stricktly for the pads I don't suggest it. They good but they're not great for drumming, so I usually use my Launchpad S.The faders are alright, not top notch but I got the keyboard ~$80 off retail price. They're nothing wrong with them, just not the smoothest.The transport buttons work perfectly for me, though I don't use them much. Since you can do recordings, launch clips and stop clips on the drumpads that is what I use. The tracking works fine, normal banking to this or that track. But one thing I noticed about that is that when you move left and right, for every midi instrument you bank through (that is already in your track) it will set it to that sound. So if you want to go to your piano sound, but have to scroll through your ambient midi track and whatever else, it'll set your sound to all of them mixed together...kind of creepy haha. I don't really mind, I'll just unclick them. Not a big deal.The mod and pitch wheel are fine. Pitch works perfectly, though I feel that the mod wheel left me a little unsatisfied. I can see that it works perfectly fine, but it just feels....weak. I have to use a very clean midi instrument to get hear the full affect of the mod wheel.Overall, this is a great keyboard and for $187 it's a ridiculous price. Just two actually cons to sya though:1) I've noticed a few people have this problem with the keyboard, so it's not just me. The keyboard has a problem where sometimes when recording, you'll play it back and you'll head low G or something playing continuously throughout the track. At first I was super creeped out (ghosts!) but I looked it up and it seems some have this problem. Whatever, just click and delete! Not a big deal at all! It hasn't done that in a while though, it stopped doing that a couple days after breaking it in.2) My second problem might be something you'll have, but it's never happened while recording. Just sometimes shortly after I turn the keyboard in (and yes other people have this problem sometimes as well). Sometimes the control it's feeding just...locks. But this has only happened about three times, and about 3 minutes into turning it on for those. What I mean is that, if you play for example c chord and really any key, it'll just keep going. It stops if you tap a key pretty hard, and doesn't do it after that.I think those are things it does during warm-ups though, it doesn't do them anymore and only did them within a few minutes of starting.TL;DR : great keyboard,a few crazy messes when warming up sometimes, but overall for $187-$218 who can complain? Great keyboard, I have the 61 key and the MINI and they accompany each other nicely.
