A Page turner that refuses to change mode

If you need it to work in Mode 1 (Up/Down arrow) then you may be OK. Otherwise save your money!!!

Uncomfortable
Reviewed by Kristo Z on
The unit I received is also defective. The left ear bud makes a distorted hissing sound and I had to return them. So I doubt that the quality control is very good.

The Best Midi Controller around (depending on your SAW setup)
Reviewed by tarquin L on
This is an awesome controller that does exactly as promised. If working in Maschine you will get seamless and in-deph DAW integration as well as all buttons on Native Instruments products (Mondark, Massive, kontakt, Reaktor, etc) fully mapped and saved with your soft synth.
This takes away all reliance on using a mouse or keyboard for your musical journey and can practically do everything via the keyboard. When using one of the Native Instruments sift synths, this virtually feels like a full-blown synth with all the ease and touch controls that one could need.
Further to this VST instruments and Effects also get mapped (i was amazed at how well it handled this) and translate very well to this keyboard. You will be going on Sonic journeys with this piece of gear in no time at all.
Lastly the keyboard itself is a semi-weighted fatar keyboard , making it extremely expressive and smooth as silk to play.
The only negative is that if you do not sequence in maschine you will be missing out on a lot with this piece of gear. While it still works with other DAWS (presonus one, logic, Cubase, ableton, etc) you still get some daw control and VST integration , however when used in maschine this will shine and become amazing.
I Used this keyboard in conjunction with my maschine mikro and was heavily impressed. The two units compliment, and integrate with, each other perfectly. changing aspects on the mikro changes aspects on the keyboard and vise-versa.
There are many 'surprsies' also in this keyboard that will keep you interested and invested for ages (the fact that the ARP on the keyboard maps notes to midi is probably my favourite. You see the notes mapped in your sequence rather than just the notes which you held on the keyboard. stunning.).
The build quality of the komplete controller is excellent and smacks of quality. It is sturdy, has feet that stick to the table and feels like it will last for ages.
Have fun!

Small Body, Big sound and tone!
Reviewed by Matt C on
Compared to a Baby Taylor or Little Martin, the Taka-Mini dominates and wins the spot in my heart.
The Takamine has a rich full tone with surprising projection (considering the smaller body).
The build quality is superb with such an attention to detail!
The Carry bag it comes with is such a bonus (Well padded and with decent straps)
Overall, you cant go wrong! :)

They give a bit of life to aging/ low output passive pickups, too. Nickel strings couldn't get my cheap Les Paul copy neck pickup to work but these did.

Great introduction to 8 strings & multiscale
Reviewed by Marc on
This guitar is NOT for people with small hands. I have large hands and sometimes it can be a real mission to mute strings or stretch across frets. This is more of a problem in general with multi string or extended scale guitars though.
The fanned frets don't take too long to get used to, but can be difficult to play certain chords if you don't angle the neck upwards (i.e. if you play it with the guitar sitting on your right leg & the neck is parallel to the ground, you're gonna have a bad time).
The positives:
+Well made (no rattly bits or bad finishes), and weighs less than you would expect
+Great sound for metal/ hard rock
+Playing past the 9th fret sounds great, thanks to the fanned frets helping to keep the intonation correct
The negatives:
-Lack of locking tuners. Despite a fixed tail, the strings do tend to slowly detune while playing. It gets better as the strings age/ settle, but the low B & F# like to wander a bit.
-It's neck heavy. Unless you play with a strap or brace with your right arm, the neck will want to dip, quickly leading to a tired/ sore left arm
-Neck pickup sounds a bit muddy, especially when playing the low F#
