Best Computer Keyboard For Music Production 2019

Best tool for music production when traveling

Better keyboard then the 2019

I purchased this desk to use in my music production studio. I have a 61 key midi keyboard that fits perfectly on it. My computer monitor and 6 studio monitors fit perfectly on the top shelf. The desk is stable and comfortable to sit at. For the price you can't beat it.

Beest under $100 Headphones. I use these for my keyboard and music production. Good Feel and quality. Not the best looking. But definitely good on sound.

I needed a new main computer for my music production studio. I was not sure whether to buy this or the 2.93 12-core. I did some research and everything pointed to processor speed trumping core count in heavy DAW use. It is true. This machine outperforms a friends 2.93 12-core in plugin/Virtual instrument count in both Logic and Cubase. The only downside is that you are limited to a max of 24GB of RAM (using 8GB sticks) to still get the triple channel functionality. But that's still quite a lot.

I have a dell inspiron 3847, came with 8 gig of ram. I'm using it for music production, cubase and a lot of vst instruments. Well the day came to add more ram. Because this computer is a bit older, it maxes out at 16 gig. The Crucial 16GB DDR3 1600, was the only thing I could find for an upgrade. These specs are not the fastest, but the mother board would not accept DDR4. Swapping the ram was easy. On restart the computer recognized there was a hardware change, went to settings and ran a diagnostic, than restarted and works great. OS Windows 10 64bit. If your doing music production, I recommend 32GB or more if your computer will accept it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am building my computer for music production and this was one of the missing pieces I needed to finish my build. I’ve been looking for extra ram to give my computer the storage it needs to run my music programs without stalling. It was easy to install and works great. Im sure this product will last.

This was an impulse buy one day. Best decision ever! I use this keyboard with in my classroom to control the computer I have connected to my projector. Being able to stand at my podium in front of the class and control my computer, or walk around the room and still control it has been an absolute game changer for me and my teaching.

Absolutely love this computer and keyboard. Best price for the bundle and shipping was super fast.

At the lowest price I could find for a controller keyboard, the Korg nanoKey2 is very impressive. It only has twenty-five keys, but the octave shift buttons allow you to change the octave up and down, giving reach to the full range of notes for electronic music. It has neat pitch bend, sustain, and vibrato buttons, too. It resembles a computer keyboard in the flatness and shape of the keys and is even smaller than a computer keyboard. It works great with my electronic music software. It even picks up musical accent (velocity); so the harder you press the keys, the louder it is, and the softer you press the keys, the quieter it is. The only thing that would make it better is if it had sounds of its own. However, it serves its purpose as a Musical Instrument Digital Interface controller well. It comes with a software code so you can download some electronic music programs from the Internet; so if you do not have music software already, you can get some to use with the nanoKey2. The cable that it comes with stays in the socket very tightly and it will not fall out so easily. This is good so it will not disconnect on accident. Overall, the Korg nanoKey2 is a good buy for being able to listen to, experiment with, and record sounds in audio software without having to use the computer mouse and computer keyboard all the time to program commands and test out sounds. It is light-weight and its slim-line design is very convenient and saves space. It would be good for use with a laptop on the go. I find it a nice addition to my desktop home studio. It is perfect in function for its size. Very neat.
