QUOTE (VictorUK @ Jun 23 2009, 10:32 PM)  It uses MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) correct me peeps if im wrong but say if you press a key on the keyboard it send a CC message (Continuous Controllers) to whatever device i.e. VST's and plays each note according to your hardware controller (keyboard). Basically its a hardware controller. So i can play on it like a regular keyboard and record with it using VST s -------------------- My Gear

QUOTE (superize @ Jun 23 2009, 10:52 PM) That one is pretty fine for basic recording, there's also programmable joystick so you can assign it for pitch bend etc. Nice price too! Some people use even smaller keyboards with 1 or 2 octaves, they record chords or whatever and do transposing later on in DAW. QUOTE (superize @ Jun 23 2009, 10:56 PM) I only want to use the keyboard for recording Depends of what you mean by recording, if you think of just MIDI recording then it's ok since the one you looked at has no sounds, it only sends MIDI signal so you would have to trigger sounds from somewhere else, VSTs etc. -------------------- Youtube

M-Audio Axiom 49. Is the one I have. It was around $200.00 U.S. and It worked perfect with my macbook pro and Logic 8. All I did was plug it in and it worked great. Tons of features for the money.

4 octaves are optimal for a limited space home studio, and people who are not piano players. All these controllers have transpose button so you can have the entire range available at the flick of a switch.

QUOTE (VictorUK @ Jun 24 2009, 07:08 PM) What do you mean? you can just transpose it in the vst's or in the daw... the keyboard is just the controller If keyboard has octaves buttons then you can transpose on keyboard itself, find perfect octave and then record. If it doesn't have then you can transpose in DAW after you record.
