Some of our larger MIDI Keyboards, like the new Akai MPK Road 88, feature 88 full-sized keys with a weighted 'hammer' action. 25 Notes are enough for basic MIDI editing and music production at home, whilst more confident players may be comfortable on a 49 or 61 note MIDI keyboard. Our 25, 49 and 61-note keybeds tend to be the most popular. Also, because it's USB powered, you can simply plug in without being connected to a power source. This is a great option for laptop producers that want a take-anywhere keyboard to fit in a rucksack or travel bag.

Some of our most popular MIDI Keyboards are the smaller, travel-friendly controllers like the Akai MPK Mini 2. MIDI Keyboards are highly useful additions to any recording setup, allowing you to get the most out of your DAW and also to play software synths and other virtual instruments instead of using the virtual 'piano roll' on most Music Software titles. Most MIDI Keyboards come bundled with Music Software so you can start making music out the box (like Ableton Live Lite, Komplete Kontrol, Cubase or Akai's VIP Software).

In addition, if you don’t usually play keys, you can get hold of a cheap MIDI keyboard controller at a budget-friendly price and enjoy a world of plugins and sounds without the larger investment. If you record or write music at home, it’s always a good idea to have a MIDI keyboard on hand to work out chord structure and try melodic ideas. They can be used for studio writing and composition, as well as live performance. Most MIDI Keyboards do not make any sound on their own and need to be connected to your computer, usually via USB, 5-Pin MIDI or Bluetooth. BROWSE AND BUY THE BEST MIDI KEYBOARDS AT PMT
