    That is a lot of controls and connections for sure. Curious to know what would be your retail price for this one?

    Definitely rock solid specs! Would be a beast of a MIDI keyboard but very high-end and therefore quite expensive I believe.

    Just my opinion, but far too big and too many buttons. I’d also shudder to think of the cost and would just prefer the setup I use. These “all in one” devices may be a nice idea for some live stuff but that thing needs a dedicated room for its size and if I need a room I’d use a pc, keyboard and mouse for the convenience.

    I have no idea, surely more expensive than a liturgical organ, but I would pay anything for this keyboard.

    Far too much stuff piled into one device. If one element breaks or gets behind in technical evolution.. your whole investment gets wrecked.

    I much prefer having separate devices that are designed to integrate brilliantly.

    If it is true, this keyboard would definitely be more focused on live, but on stage.

    I remember the time when Openlabs launched this type of keyboard, Opensynth NeKo 64, until 2010 I was about to buy the Gen6 NeKo XXL, that was the beginning of a trend in professional studios, far from the reach of normal users , then many years later the Akai MPC Key 61 appears, much more affordable, but just as powerful, I think that a keyboard like these facilitates the integration of Groveboxes, synths and controllers in a single equipment, for large studios and portable for live events.

    I have always liked these types of keyboards.

    I would rather have an MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression) keyboard than all of the audio stuff. Of course I could just buy a ROLI Seaboard RISE 2 but I don't think ROLI has the staff, money or management to support their products very well.
