Good Controller, It's great for professionals as well as beginners. .
ding Akai Beats. Ableton Live, Maschine and Serato Studio and it worked very well in all of those professional DAWs. I like it because it's small/compacted and I also like the Editor that you can download from Donner's website. Bottom line it's not a toy and it's great for professionals as well as beginners.

Kleines Teil, großer Spaß
Hab mir den Donner MIDI Pad Controller geholt und muss sagen: Richtig cooles kleines Spielzeug! 🎶🔥 Perfekt, wenn man Beats bauen oder ein bisschen mit Sounds rumspielen will. Die Pads sind angenehm zu drücken und reagieren gut – nicht super hochwertig wie bei teuren Controllern, aber für den Preis echt top. Die Tasten fühlen sich okay an und tun, was sie sollen. Läuft problemlos per USB, einfach einstöpseln und loslegen. Für schnelle Ideen, Jammen oder einfach zum Spaß haben ist das Ding echt super. Wer Profi-Qualität erwartet, sollte vielleicht woanders schauen, aber für Einsteiger oder Hobby-Produzenten? Definitiv ein spaßiges Teil! 🎹✨

Works well with Linux out of the box
Since nobody does Linux reviews I will add one here. Firstly with Reaper it worked great, everything was properly assigned to what you would expect. Same for Ardour which was nice. Reassigned the pads to arm tracks to suit my setup. Now for the unit itself, it’s cheap, although it does feel very nice and responsive, very similar to the akai mpk25 but £20-30 cheaper so that’s a winner right there. It’s an excellent piece of kit for those who might be tight on space. Also for portability, find a padded pouch or wrap it in a big towel and throw it into your rucksack, it will be fine. Finally for people who are looking for software to get into using this little gem and don’t want to pay silly money for FL studio or such, Ardour is an excellent DAW that is free, open source and available for Windows, Mac and of course Linux. The interface takes a bit of getting used to and it can be quite cumbersome at first, but perseverance and you will be up and running in no time. There is also another DAW if people are interested, it is called LMMS, it is also free, open source and available for all systems. LMMS is a lot more like FL studio, in that it uses more of the blocked sequencer approach. Think of it as freebie version of FL Studio, brilliant for beginners. Hope all of this helps people in some way, cheers.

Piccola, economica e performante
Premetto che è la mia prima tastiera MIDI quindi non ho un metro di paragone, devo dire però che si comporta molto bene considerando anche il prezzo di acquisto. Il collegamento è immediato con Logic Pro e Garageband su macOS. Il fatto di poter comandare i valori a schermo tramite i potenziometri sulla tastiera e molto comodo e utile. I pad poi sono molto responsivi e si prestano molto bene a sperimentazioni con beat e percussioni. In sintesi è un bel giocattolino e la consiglio a chi vuole entrare nel modo midi/sintetizzatori.

Good sounds and tech.
I am not an experienced user, and found it to be a little tougher to get used to. Otherwise it is a very good sinth.
