This pocketable/foldable midi keyboard is what I had been looking for for years. I was always surprised that it did not exist. Now it does. And it is well thought through as only Korg can do it. I unpacked it, plugged it into my Mac first and iPad then and was lost in an hour long music making bliss - the best indicator for a successful music making tool.This is so much more than just a midi keyboard. The many Arpeggiator modes and patterns, the chord function, the split keyboard, the scale functions with lit keys, the swipe keyboard function, etc... there is so much clever thinking that went into this... I am impressed. The keyboard is as big as my phone when folded and lies flat when unfolded. It is small but a real powerhouse of a midi keyboard.It is well built but I agree with many reviewers that it does feel a bit light and flimsy. They key buttons work well but I agree with others that it would be better to have the whole key surface be an actual perusable button. I hope in both of these in a version mk II of this.Despite these two points I would not hesitate buying this again and warmly recommend it to anyone that always wanted a small pocketable midi keyboard for the phone/iPad/laptop to carry along.

A ton of functions on an incognito keyboard. I travel every weekend for work and this thing has been a game changer. I’ve used it on the plane, in the hotel, even on break at work. Fits in the smallest pocket in my book bag. Yes it’s plastic, but once it’s unfolded and lying down flat it feels fine. I have small case for it for extra protection. Syncs up with all of my Daws and VST with no problem. I think it’s pretty sick for a midi keyboard on the go. Just buy the Amazon protection for $20 and you’ll be fine

I bought this because I'm putting together a tiny suitcase rig to keep me from going insane in vehicles and hotel rooms, it's good for that and that only, otherwise it's a huge pain in the ass. Buy a Keystep, a Swing or anything Keith McMillen before you blow money on this gimmicky thing. I've had mine for two weeks and I'm already considering trading it for a lap harp.

Very Cheap and Flimsy build quality. The keys don't feel good to play at all, way to expensive for this quality.

ほーんとヒトを選ぶ商品なので一台目のMIDIコントローラーに選ばない方が良いです。キーはポチポチですし、最小限。タッチがどうとかじゃないです。しかしその一方でこのサイズで付属の3.5mmケーブルでmidiを繋げたりタッチセンスのピッチベンド、モジュレーションなどがありわたしはマシンライブ、アナログシンセに使ってます。用途を絞ればサイズ的にコレしかない一台になると思います。わたしはモジュラーシンセのコントロールがそれでした。

Great product in its simplicity. Plug in and use easily with Ableton. Keep in mind, this is a midi controller and does not come with its own sounds. I found the software package worthless but if you have Ableton and a plethora of sound packs loaded in, you're set to have a ton of fun. Perfect device for writing tracks while out and about. The product is in my opinion, too light and feels like it could easily be damaged. Would like to see some tougher skin and hinge parts, especially as a midi you'll want to be taking with you everywhere.

Korg-typische Verpackung. Das Falt-Keyboard ist wirklich sehr klein und gefällt im erster Moment als portable Lösung.Dann die erste Handhabung:Material wirkt sehr billig. Das Klappscharnier wirkt wenig vertrauenserweckend. Die Frage nach einer ev. Sollbruchstelle drängt sich auf. Wichtiger aber und für die Verwendung unangenehm: Es gibt keine Fixierung, um das Keyboard gerade offen zu halten. Es lässt sich also nur auf ebenen Untergrund sinnvoll betreiben. Mobilität sieht anders aus.So ist auch ein einhändiges "Noteneinkopfen" mühsam, weil es sich ständig zuklappt. Der Versuch Akkorde zu greifen, funktioniert zwar, aber ein Live-Spiel ist ob der notwendigen Treffgenauigkeit der Druckpunkte nicht wirklich praxistauglich. Je länger ich darauf spiele, um so mehr stören mich diese Tastennoppel. Der Versuch vierstimmige Akkorde zu greifen ist zwar größenbedingt schon schwierig, wird aber durch diese Druckpunkte noch erschwert. Ich frage mich inzwischen, worin der Vorteil gegenüber einer Bildschirmtastatur liegen soll. Dort kann ich zumindest die gesamte Fläche verwenden.Nachdem Anschlagdynamik nicht möglich ist (nur über Menüpunkt und nur ein zugewiesener Wert gleichzeitig), frage ich mich immer mehr worin der Sinn des Keyboards sein soll.Ok, Arpeggiator und Hilfsfunktionen vielleicht. Das ist alles ganz witzig und schon bisschen drüber nachgedacht, aber ohne einer HOLD-Funktion wieder nur halb umgesetzt. Gerade bei dem Keyboard würde ich mir eine Hold-Funktion erwarten.Die Controller-Funktion hätte viel Potential. In meiner naivität dachte ich, dass man eine Taste für die CC Nummer drückt und anschließend mit dem MOD Strip den Wert setzten. Tatsächlich ist die Umsetzung allerdings nur 1:1 gelöst. Tasten sind Tasten, also 0 und 127 Werte und Pitch und Mod Strip können jeweils ein CC Wert zugewiesen werden. In der Software. Nicht direkt.Letzter Hoffnungsschimmer: Wechsel des globalen Midi Channels. Wieder eine Enttäuschung. Der Globale Midi Channel kann nur in der Software umgestellt werden, nicht direkt am Keyboard. Ja, man kann sich mit den 15 Presets helfen aber naja, wozu ein ganzes Preset nur für einen Midi Kanal vergeuden.Den KORG Kontrol Editor gibt es aktuell nur für Win/Mac. Android und iOS/iPadOS gibt es derzeit nicht. Noch ein großer Minuspunkt. Ich finde das Keyboard ist am User vorbei entwickelt. Mit einem MacBook Pro gibt es zig Alternativen, die auf minimalem Raum eine bessere Eingabe zulassen. Und für iPad/iPhone ist es ohne Arretierung anscheinend garnicht gedacht.FAZIT: Bei einem Preis von 60,- oder so wäre es gerade noch OK. Bei 131,- (aktueller Preis z.Z.d.Rezension) ist für das Gebotene doch recht hoch gegriffen. Dem Hype der Influenzier Videos hält das Gerät m.E. in der Praxis nicht stand. Das einzig innovative an dem Keyboard wäre der Klappmechanismus. Aber der alleine rechtfertigt den Preis nicht.Mein Vergleich: Keith McMillen K-Board - Hier finde ich die Haptik schlimm und die Anschlagdynamik unbrauchbar, aber zumindest gibt es einen Editor für iOS und eine HOLD Funktion. Das gelbe vom Ei ist es auch nicht, aber es war seinerzeit zumindest günstiger.

It really is a good keyboard that could be used all the time. Plenty of features that I haven’t go on my Akai MK3. To be honest I’ll probably only use this keyboard for things like a gig, if I ever do, or when I’m travelling. Apparently it works well with the S1 and the others in that range, I’ve got a couple of Behringer tiny synths, I’m hoping it will work with them too. I think it’s priced just right but I would pay more for either a mrtal case or a case to keep it in.

I bought this because I frequently need to leave my studio to work at other studios and typically set up a little workstation with a midi keyboard. I've been using a Akai MPK mini but with its protective case, it gets a bit clunky to travel with. This certainly solves that problem handily, coming in at about 1/10th the size and about the same for weight. It's nothing. You could put it in your pocket. So, it serves a great function in a tiny little form-factor. The keys are a joke, however. They are exactly as they look. Just little plastic bubbles that you can press down on; maybe you could squeeze some velocity variability on it. Don't think you're going to perform Bach on this thing. It's for punching out short ideas and then editing them in a midi editor. For me, I use them as buttons for a sampler that plays back sound effects so I'm less concerned about velocity response or having to perform melodic passages.Unfortunately, it feels extremely cheaply made. It's hollow inside and reminds me of a dollar store chocolate easter bunny. Feels like it will shatter into a bunch of little pieces on a single drop. It doesn't click firm when you open it, but it does feel solid when it's opened up on a desk. I'm docking a star because it feels so cheap. I'm docking it another star because it's obscenely overpriced. This should be a $49 buy. The fact that it is $119 shows that Korg doesn't understand the market for this. If you need something small and simple to punch out stuff on the road and you have the cash burning a hole in your pocket, fine. If you don't, run away from this product screaming.
