Measuring under 13 inches and weighing less than a pound, you can easily toss it into your laptop case, backpack, or messenger bag. This keyboard offers amazing features like working with almost all audio software, 25 velocity - sensitive mini - keys, arpeggiator and tap tempo controls. With a plug - and - play USB connection for Mac and PC (no driver needed), four programmable memory banks, and editor software for both platforms, it's a must - have. And it runs on USB bus power, so no extra power cable required.
Using the Akai LPK25 is a breeze. First, connect it to your Mac or PC via the USB cable. Since it's plug - and - play, you don't need to install any drivers. Start up your favorite audio software, and you're ready to create music. When using the keys, keep in mind that they are velocity - sensitive, so the harder you press, the louder the sound. Use the arpeggiator, sustain button, octave controls, and tap tempo to add more variety to your music. The four programmable memory banks let you save your settings for easy access later. As for maintenance, keep the keyboard clean by using a soft, dry cloth to wipe it down. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture. Don't force the keys too hard as it might damage the sensitivity. When not in use, store it in a safe place, preferably in its case or a protective bag to prevent scratches and damage.
