Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A good MIDI controller with a couple of nitpicks
MIDI controllers are often a subjective choice because not everyone uses them for the same purpose or has the experience of playing on weighted keys such as your normal piano.

I purchased this after having started with a 49 key M-Audio Key Studio which was an entry level controller with plain, non weighted keys and no extra control beyond the standard pitch & mod wheels and octave buttons. I wanted something that would allow comfortable "piano style" two handed play without getting ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Axiom 61 just keeps on working
I first had the Axiom 25 and loved it when I used Garageband. When I got ProTools (all of them Mini 2, LE, and M-Powered) I moved up to another brand. When I got Logic Pro and Logic Pro Express I got the Axiom 61 and never looked back. I have a double rack and the Axiom 61 gets used constantly and I think that says it for me.

P.S. I didn't know there was a"lead" issue with the paint on the Axiom, but again I don't play on the paint, or have small children, or dogs or cats, et al.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent contoller for the money
I use this keyboard with and Imac, Garage Band and B4 II. I like the action and generous controls.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - One big con
Keyboard has great features but, unfortunately, it is coated with painting that contains lead. Lead is known to cause cancer. This is specified in the user's manual but not on the box. I think any prospect buyer should be aware of this fact.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not bad unit
New to MIDI and keyboards (just learning piano too) so take this with a grain of salt. Overall a pretty good controller, but i have problems with some of the faders/knobs not working all the time. this is probably an issue with the preset software which i do not know how to use yet.

another bigger issue, is the latency. there is a slight delay ~ 90 milliseconds before the keys/triggers i hit actually respond. this isn't too bad for me to learn how to play the piano, but a little frustrating ... Read More
