Review: Not Perfect, but It Is Excellent - I've been using the midiplus X3 mini and X4 mini for about three years now. You will not find a better MIDI controller for the price. The keyboard is solid, level, and well-built. The keys themselves are satisfying to play, with a nice resistance -- neither too stiff, nor too giving. The keys don't feel quite as nice as the Arturia KeyStep, but then the KeyStep is more expensive and has many features I don't need. For those of you using external hardware synths with 5-pin DIN inputs (i.e. the old-fashioned MIDI ports ubiquitous until about 2009), you'll be relieved to finally find a decent and affordable MIDI controller that can send MIDI to your gear. That's right: this midiplus MIDI controller is useful for DAW-less (i.e. non-computer) workflows. I personally use the midiplus X4 to control an Elektron Digitone and a Roland MC-707, and it excels at this task. These mini midiplus keyboards are a great size and form factor, virtually ideal. The X3 mini fits nicely in the slide-out tray of a corner computer desk, while the X4 mini fits nicely on a 31" folding table on which I like to improvise melodies and chord progressions with external hardware synthesizers. One nice thing about the midiplus mini keyboards is their horizontal span. On normal-sized keyboards, it's a stretch for me to play 10ths, and 11ths are impossible. But on the midiplus mini keyboards, I can easily play 10ths, and 11ths are possible with only slight discomfort. This is a important for me because I'm a composer who often likes to use 9ths, 10ths, and 11ths in my chords and riffs. It's also super convenient to be able to quickly change MIDI channels and velocity settings: the midiplus keyboards allow this, and more. You can also reassign the MIDI CC messages that each knob and button use. For instance, knob 1 uses CC 7 by default, but you can reassign it to any value, such as 92. In practice, this means you can use these 4 knobs to actually control a dozen or more MIDI CC parameters. (But you'll have to change the CC assignment on the fly, which is a somewhat awkward process made easier by repetition and memorization.) I only rarely use the 4 knobs at top to control filter cutoff, resonance, volume, etc, but it is nice to have that ability. Though smallish, these 4 knobs have a really nice feel and resistance, too, with a non-slip coating. The capacitive touchstrips on the far left, for controlling pitch and modulation, are better and more responsive that I'd hoped for. Yes, they're a little bit imprecise and coarse-grained, but they are useful for trying out ideas, and good enough for improvisation. Caveat: I'm not a pianist or even a particularly good keyboard player. I use my midiplus keyboard to compose music and try out various ideas/riffs/phrases/chords. For my purposes, these midiplus controllers are close to ideal. For my uses, there are only two defects with this midiplus keyboard. It lacks an expression pedal input, and it lacks a dedicated power supply (DC-input). So I have to power the keyboard using a USB cable connected to a USB power brick. Kind of annoying, but certainly not a deal breaker.
Review: Minimalistic, well-made, and a great value - Being an inexpensive Chinese keyboard, I felt like the Midiplus X6 was a gamble, but it turned out to be a very good one. It has everything you need in a footprint no larger than it absolutely needs to be. It's very aesthetically pleasing, and the somewhat smaller keys make the whole thing remarkably portable and appropriately sized for most desks. The smaller keys and the lack of weights means it isn't a substitute for a full size, 88 key weighted keyboard for classical pianists, but it is enough to scratch that itch when you want to learn half of Moonlight Sonata and Maple Leaf Rag without committing your mortgage to a grand piano. It really shines for sampled instruments, and does everything you need, plus the knobs are useful for controlling volume swells, low-pass filters, pitch shifters, and anything else you want for wild experimentation. I can't recommend it enough if you're on a tight budget.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Impressive!
*by R***T on October 21, 2020*

The quality is amazing for the cost. This controller is unique as it is a mini-key keyboard controller. The size, ease of use, quality of design are all good elements as well as it's easy plug and play connectivity! The key press takes some getting used to. It doesn't effect the overall effectiveness of a mini keyboard. Mini sized keyboards are nice for many reasons. One being that they can be more pleasant to play when less effort is required to play consistently. (After a day of learning the key articulation, playability is very comfortable and more controlled with a smooth, clean response.) The velocity sensitivity is respectable but tricky. It's best not to purchase this controller for that particular function. It is better to have velocity touch response included than not have it. The velocity settings can be changed to accommodate your playing preferences. Experienced piano/keyboard player of +20 years. This is a must have! Can't be recommend enough.!
