    • How music production has changed! First true DAW for me.
Size: 61-Key Style: A-Series
As a youth I spent much time playing around with synthesizers, later expanding to rudimentary MIDI controllers. For me, it was a simpler time with an essential mix board and analog (later digital) recording devices to capture songs and ideas. I never really had the keyboards I wanted like a Mirage or Prophet due to cost. Today, with DAWs, vastly expanded libraries of bundled sounds, and relatively inexpensive MIDI keyboards-- getting back into music after a period of somnolence is an exciting prospect. I am not a musician, nor any kind of authority on setting up these DAW systems, but assumed I was ready with a gaming laptop (sufficient RAM and processing power) running Windows 11. As a “producer” I like to listen to and mix electronics and samples into some coherent form. The selection of the Native Instruments A61 was based on the fact that I spent much time with an old NI module called Absynth. Back when I was using Absynth, I had it moving through a Kawai K1 as the MIDI controller… and really it never seemed right to me with an old computer system, drivers that produced latency, pops, and clicks, etc. When I started looking for a MIDI controller, I found that Native Instruments no longer officially supports Absynth – but when I signed into my old account there it was… ready to download again. Looking at the array of software that comes bundled with the A61 I thought it was good enough to get going again. Some might wonder if the Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol A49 or A61 is the way to go. I choose the A61 because I have enough space on my desk for more keys and appreciate the ability to map larger sections of sounds, along with having a bit more depth for low to higher notes. Key feel is the same for the A49 and A61 based on reviews. Is it plug and play? That question probably depends on your own ability to navigate various computer issues like USB power, MIDI configuration, drivers, etc. For me, it was not plug and play. My laptop does not supply enough power for the A61 so initially it would not power up via USB. Fortunately I also have a powered USB hub, and that works just fine. Installation of all the available NI software is pretty straight forward with their “Native Access” acting as the central account management screen. (Yes, you need to register with NI to use their software). Downloads went fine. I had to spend some time with getting the MIDI configuration correct to hear sounds and ended up downloading a recommended ASIO driver to reduce latency. All that done, it is just a matter of using their pretty good Kontact Kontrol software to see the variety of available sounds. I say “pretty good” because the software is a powerful tool for browsing, categorizing, and playing available sound, but since it is fed with NI and non-NI instruments, screen sizing and visibility can be an issue. Feeding to a larger monitor helps with resolution, but some may be disappointed that you cannot drop and drag a corner to make things larger and more visible. As for the keyboard itself, it is not NI’s top of the line, but more than sufficient for my needs. It came securely packaged with the USB cable, a small information book for registration, downloads of the essential NI software and manual, and instructions for getting Ableton Live Lite. The control knobs feel positive and defaults within Kontact Kontrol are great and easily changed. The keys are not piano weighted but do provide enough feedback for playing. Hardware based buttons provide positive clicks when pressed. The little OLED screen is good enough to see basic functionality. There is a lot to explore and learn with any DAW for a newbie. Fortunately, YouTube provides plenty of guidance and training videos, along with Native Instruments having its own set of getting started and much more specific videos. So far, I have found using the Native Instruments A61 fun and challenging. This is not the only MIDI controller out there, but for the price of the keyboard and variety of provided (with purchase) multiple software packages, I am glad I stuck with Native Instruments as my first true DAW keyboard. Onward! ... show more

    • THE controller if you want a bass synth to add to your virtual instrument setup!
Size: 25-Key Style: A-Series
Short Version: If you are looking to buy a bass deck, and you live in a lot of the Native Insturments’ world of virtual synths, this is a no brainer and dare I say, better than the M32 Long Version: I bought the “Analog Dreams” synth pack from Native Instruments at the start of Quarantine, and was VERY impressed with the sounds and overall 80’s vibe. VERY impressed. But, my main controller is an Arturia. Nothing against them, but the mapping always had to be done manually, and using the stand alone control software for live playing just didn’t work. Since I was mainly looking for a bass deck, I did my research and it was down to the A25 or M32. Everyone raved about the M32, but I didn’t hear much about the A25. So, after some deliberation, I bought one. First impression- This is not a small controller when it comes to 3-octave decks. The matte plastic finish and full sized keyboard were flat out impressive feeling. The discrete label controls also made it look VERY German, and very cool. The keys are a full size “Semi Synth Weighted” affair, and feel fantastic! I have fat stubby hands and I am no concert pianist, so the large layout felt natural. It is also quite a bit taller than your average 25 key deck, but since I don’t intend to try to write anything on a plane, I didn’t care about how portable it was. In fact, the large footprint is a plus as it fit well into a spare mixer stand I had. DAW and plugin integration- While this is a very smooth controller to play, it really is best when paired with Native Instruments software and plugins. The controls are mapped out simply and well, and when running the Kontrol environment app, there is ZERO issue! Although, I found out when installing this on a Mac, make sure you disable all other MIDI devices first. I had my Arturia Keylab 49 and my mixer’s DAW controls active, and the controller wasn’t able to be read properly. So, I had to uninstall and reinstall the Kontrol app and then things worked fine. Once you do that, it works like a charm. Jumps right into ProTools and Ableton without fuss. Even tried it in Reaper (My preferred editing DAW), which is famous for working with ANYTHING, but usually you have to do some routing and mapping no matter what. All I had to do was to decide which MIDI channels to use for the I/O in Reaper, and once again, it worked like a treat! Performance- The semi weighted keys are placed naturally for any piano player, and nothing on the keyboard feels cramped. This controller also rocks the pitch and mod wheels to the left that are a decent size and don’t feel overtly plastic. All together, this just *feels* premium. It really shines as a bass synth, with everything within reach of a single left hand. The only issue is that the LED display is quite tiny, and you find yourself squinting to see what info is on it. But, given. How it performs and at the price, I can overlook that as my attention should be on the laptop if I am tweaking the settings. Speaking of price, it is more expensive than other 25-key controllers, but you are really getting your money’s worth. This is especially true with the free software that comes with it. I have paid for plugins and synths that sounded and performed worse. If you have a home studio that doesn’t need moved around constantly, this is a VERY wise companion to you main controller. As an audio engineer and a musician, I am of the mind you really only need 3 main MIDI components: A large format keyboard, a small format keyboard and a drum pad/sequencer. This is exactly the kind of 25 key that you need for that kind of setup, and would be almost perfect with their Machine pad controller for producers who are looking for a clean, integrated beat production setup. For a keyboardist like myself, this sits above my Arturia and is the best bass key controller so I can double up on multiple tracks. ... show more
