The VMK-88 from Studiologic is an 88-key controller designed for the player who prefers a lighter feel to that provided by most fully weighted 88-key controllers. The semi-weighted action is crisp and responsive, and with a durable, high-impact polypropylene casing, the 88-note keyboard manages to weigh in at less than 14 pounds.
The controller delivers a multi-level programming experience with comprehensive and straightforward functions. It features a pitch bend wheel, aftertouch, "on the fly" live edits, assignable knobs, buttons and sliders, and 4 independent, fully programmable pedal inputs. For a piano player that means pedal control of sustain, damping and sostenuto.
The 77 assignable controls deliver control surface capability, along with MIDI output. Eleven software presets, 30 user programmable patches, and a combination of assignable knobs, buttons, sliders and pedals, makes the VMK-88 a highly viable solution for those in need of a portable, full-size controller.
