A MIDI keyboard is a tool that you can use to make arrangements without leaving your home. This instrument is a device with keys similar to a synthesizer, which, depending on your purposes, can "sound" the sound of a grand piano, orchestra, organ, analog synthesizer. Or you can play with the sound of your favorite drum kit. It all depends on your goals and the virtual instrument library on your computer.
Like synthesizers, different keyboard models differ in mechanics, number and size of keys. Some, with only 25 velocity-sensitive downsized keys, are quite suitable for playing simple melodies, triggering samples, and picking chords, but more complex and expensive models can be equipped with a hammer-type wooden full-size 88-key keyboard and are designed to be played on virtual grand pianos, Rhodes Piano, organs, orchestral instruments. Playing on a keyboard like this, you will forget that this is not a real acoustic grand piano. But then it will be very convenient and intuitive to edit your part, literally every note of it, or to correct the pressed Sustain pedal in your DAW.
The MIDI controller is useful for those musicians who need flexible control of their sets during live performances, but who do not need to play melodic lines. They are not equipped with keyboards, but may have more advanced functions in terms of faders, rotary controls or joysticks located on them. If you are, for example, a DJ, then having bought you can easily assign all the controllers, buttons, pads to trigger any effects you need, samples, drum loops. DJ Controllers emulate a DJ mixer section with two turntables, so you can scratch, mix your tracks, apply effects.
Thus, with a laptop (and for the last few years also an iPhone and Pad), a keyboard or controller of any level, you can make music wherever you are: on a train, a bus, a hotel room, a cafe. Modern operating systems allow you to plug and play them - you don't even need to install drivers. Turn on your keyboard, or controller, your favorite sequencer, and you can start creating.
MIDI ( Musical Instrument Digital Interface ) technology was first introduced in the 1980s, when electronic musical instrument manufacturers were faced with the challenge of developing and maintaining a uniform control standard. This standard allowed the musician to simultaneously control instruments from different manufacturers and purposes.
Modern music production is almost impossible to imagine without midi technology. They are also used by the most stubborn fans of analog equipment, because this technology has absolutely nothing to do with sound parameters, it is just a way to control them.
Choosing a keyboard for yourself, first of all, you need to understand your goals and objectives. Just play the piano, play virtual synthesizers, or use the keys to trigger loops and samples. Some keyboards contain a built-in arpeggiator, drum pads, faders, buttons, rotary knobs, a Pitch wheel, and a Modulation wheel. All of this can be flexibly assigned to the parameters of the sequencers in which you are working, which is very convenient for triggering the built-in loopers, adjusting the effect sends, and controlling the volume and panning of channels.
If you need a simple device that fits easily into the pocket of a laptop bag, turn your attention to the Akai Lpk25 - a simple and intuitive model with 25 dynamic keys. Lightweight and compact, it does not contain anything superfluous, but it has an arpeggiator on board.
Devices can be used in conjunction not only with computers, phones or tablets. You can also connect them to your tone generators, synthesizers, electronic drum kits, loopers, grooveboxes, and any other MIDI-controlled equipment. In this case, you can control several devices at once using through channels.
