I am looking for a midi controller with :

- 61 or 76 high quallity keybed with aftertouch
- 16 drum pads
- 8 encoders
- 9 sliders or drawbars..
- good build quallity

So far i surprisingly can only find 2 keys that support this

-Arturia keylab mk2
-Korg Kronos with nanopad 2..

Makes you wonder why not more keyboards have 9 sliders...

I had similar requirements and didnt liked at all keyaction on Arturia keylab mk2 .

After testing lot of keyboards I got novation sl mk2 and I am happy with that. Pads are crap (very little force feedback) but I use them only for instrument switching so Its okay.

Connecting to ipad using Yamaha USB MIDI to bluetooth.

This is probably a dead thread, but...

I just went looking for a 61-key MIDI controller that had sufficient controls I could map to the Korg Module Pro (and just about anything else, really). I was getting by using a Yamaha Reface CP, but it's complicated to remember which dials and switches do what after I assign them.

I'd previously owned an Arturia KeyLab MkII 61-key, but wasn't thrilled with the keybed, the DAW mapping (I use Reaper), and the latency that I just couldn't get rid of. Reaper crashed a lot if I layered too many Arturia instruments, too.

I looked at the $200 to $300 range, and decided that of the controllers in that range, the Nektar Panorama T6 made the most sense to me.
