This is not a piano keyboard
RobLogic 22.10.2018
IMO this product does not make sense because it is commercialized as a piano style 88 notes keyboard but it does not serve this purpose. The keyboard is beautiful and stylish, but as soon as I connect it to Pianoteq and Keyscape I realized that you can not play Piano nor Pianissimo. It only does Forte and Fortissimo. The sensitivity of each note is too hard and is also not precise at all.
Even changing the several velocity curves the keyboard has, and setting the velocity curves as slow in Pianoteq I was not able to produce any decent piano sounds. The result is a very robotic and unexpressive sound (from the libraries obviously). This is not a keyboard for pianists. This may serve as a daw controller and to trigger samples etc. or as as decorative keyboard, because it?s very beautiful and looks well built, but not to play expressive instruments that require precise sensitivity just like any high end piano software like Pianoteq or piano libraries.
So if you are a decent pianist and if you want a 88 note keyboard to play piano just save yourself the hassle to order because you will definitely end up returning it.

I don't even want to put one star.

Horrible for pianists and non pianists.

I tried to connect it to my Mac and Logic. It went totally bezerk..

Either I'd spend whole days reprogramming the Control, Program and Note changes etc... in sys-ex or I'd return it to Thomann. I did return it.

Yes it's cheap but the use is also cheap.

OR: I got it all wrong.

But advice: save a few hundreds more and buy something better.
