Anybody used one of these. Would like to know how the keyboard feel is and what the weighting is.
Thanks

Re: Samson SAKGR49 Graphite 49 USB MIDI Keyboard Controller
A very useful link. I am looking for the keyboard that will allow me to play B3 and other organ sounds in a live environment, using it as my external instrument to slot B. I find the key action on my Stage 2 HA88 not quite suitable for playing organ glissando in a palm wipe motion.
I may give this a try as the price is so low, I can always leave it for studio work if the keyboard doesn't make it.

Re: Samson SAKGR49 Graphite 49 USB MIDI Keyboard Controller
If you want to play the B3 using Hammond organ techniques you should rather look for a master keyboard with waterfall keys (the Samson has synth keys) such as the Studiologic VMK161 Organ, Doepfer D3m or (staying cheaper) Novation Impulse.

Max, MAny thanks for the guidance. The first two are out of my price range. The Novations just about within. Will see how the Samson works out and if not up to it, may try the Novation.

Samson Graphite delivered today. Very simple to set up. Keyboard feel is fine. For £85 delivered, good value.

Re: Samson SAKGR49 Graphite 49 USB MIDI Keyboard Controller
Hi john_nick,
i'm also searching for something in this pricerange, which gets close to a waterfall. How do the organ techniques work on the samson? Or did you maybe find any alternatives by now?
