Akai MPK49

[K9 Kai Niggemann]

I am using it.

I'd give it a B. it feels good, the keys are really great, the editing  
is quite ok. I use it as my main controller, rotaries and faders  
routed to FX-sends, sometimes to control volumes even -- it works  
pretty good for me.

I'd like to have some more pads arranged in a horizontal row, like on  
the Novation Remotes, to make it easier to fire scenes in LIVE, but  
other than that I'm very happy with it.

it's sturdy and (relatively) light at the same time without feeling  
that you would push it off the table when you start-a-rockin'...
