What this needs to really fulfill the role of outdoor beat maker is a sequencer, even if it is a simple three tracks one, or, at the very least, a looper (Like the Yamaha PSS A50

Is there something like what you describe in this price range? I’d somehow like to replace a volca sample and volca keys with a single device.

@WxkR Жыл бұрын

@@erikpaul8647 the Yamaha PSS A50 has a MIDI looper but it is more a portable keyboard than a synth (you won't be able to “sculpt” the on-board sounds). It's around $100. The option would be a SonicWare Liven XFm. It has a very capable 4 track sequencer, and a super flexible and deep FM synth engine. It takes batteries and includes a decent speaker. It'd be a little over $200 but that is less than the cost of the two Volcas. Oh, on top of that it allows you to sequence external gear (If you wanted to integrate it to a bigger set up).

Looks interesting! I've got an MPK Mini MK3 and it's a great little controller (even a significant improvement over the MK2), but this would be tempting otherwise. Nice touch to have shift functions for the encoders so you still have the 8 controls.

Novation X station was a mini controller that they realised it had enough CPUs to be a great (wee) synth. I have one and it has. Ok it hasn't got a mini speaker but it is great thing from years ago.

It sounds like it’s got the same sounds from the previous Akai Mini Play which really is disappointing. The pads and knobs look a lot better but if they had included midi I/O and some different sound this would have been a better upgrade. 😕

The only downside to it is the drums have too much reverb and there is no way to reduce it. The reverb knob only works on the keyboard 😢

Thanks for the review. I've had the Mini Play MK3 for a few weeks. It's great apart from some odd behaviour with the FX encoders not picking up the values properly. Not sure if you had the same problem? Look out for my review video soon, but in the meantime here's my unboxing vid! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r9VnqLpyrZeshHU.html

Yeah, it could easily be a "must own" if it had better sounds, and a looper. The 3rd version...think they would have truly upgraded it or done some market research.
