    I got it and couldn't be more happy about it. I also waited because this fits perfectly on my desk. I play the keys a bit and didn't want the smaller ones. I love how easily it integrates with FL and works with stock plugins. Downside is the tiny screen and no "on/off" button.

    I do like that style of mouse, although I don't use it anymore. I liked the kind where the ball is on one side and you move it with your thumb.

    Yeah dope video, when this board initially was released, the videos I saw did not explain the differences from the other versions in detail..... yeah mane, you always do great product videos.
    So, I said the same thing about the screen, as I have the FL37, however, it's my thinking that they didn't go to a bigger screen because of the cost. The price point on these controllers is super cheap, the 61 keys are less than $300. That's probably why. The thing I don't like about the FL37 is the default octaves when you load up a VST, depending on the size of the kit, you have to find the kit and snare start point on some instruments. So, I'll probably do the 49 for those new features.

    what happens when you click the "Custom" button. Does this allow to to map buttons, pads, sliders and pots to whatever you like in FL Studio? Would be great to know a little more about this (i've found the section in the instruction manual on this, but would love a little more info on it).

    Great review - I totally agree about the screen - I hope the new Arturia KeyLab Mk.3 series (which you recently reviewed) will encourage other manufacturers to follow suit and put larger displays back on controllers again! Other than that, it works great with FL - I bought one after watching your review - and I really pleased with it. Talking of FL Studio, would love to see a video with your thoughts on the new features in the latest 21.2 beta… 😉

    Rotary knobs and Motorized faders are the best. Especially Rotary knobs. I would rather mix with things that be reset regardless of their previous position. Same with faders. I find these things unhelpful when you load a new project with different parameters. Why don’t more keyboard companies make motorized faders and rotary encoders the standard?

      @@solowkeytv I'm thinking the sequencing is there but handled differently by using the pads. It has a feature where the sequencing is done in steps using the pads. So maybe that is even better than a normal sequencing feature. Am thinking to lool into it, probably go to a shop that has them in stock and ask them for a demo.

    Nothing against FL users I do appreciate their skills with the mouse and computer keyboard. That said what is the purpose of the MIDI controller and who is it really for? 90% of the FL users I see don't use a keyboard controller they are very fast and proficient without one. Good luck with having them change their workflow.

      I might have to pull my head out of my ass and force myself to just use FL Studio to make a few songs.
      From what I saw with your review it seams the FL controller is extremely similar in functions to the Launchkey so maybe it will make FL less confusing for me.

He has some nerve to threaten to unsubscribe because he doesn’t like the fact you make videos to inform your subscribers about new equipment that hits the market. I appreciate producers such as yourself that take the time out to do real unbiased reviews on equipment so I don’t go waste my money on garbage. You better than me as well explaining yourself to him when you don’t owe that fool an explanation on what content you post in your channel. So if he wants to unsubscribe-bounce then. Oh and by the way, want to thank you too for your beat kits-they hit hard.
