He notado mucho el cambio de tocar teclas semi-pesadas a estas que son como los pianos.Muy satisfactorio de tocar y fácil de hacer funcionar con Reaper

Die Funktionsvielfalt ist schon beachtlicht, es funktioniert vieles auf Anhieb "Out of the Box". Man sollte aber bei allen Midi Sachen, wissen was man tut, das ist kein Plug and Play. Dafür braucht man dann nicht die Pro Variante. Die Transportfunktionen sind ein Segen, kein Mausgeschubse mehr, Record drücken und los geht es die freien Tasten belege ich mit unterschiedlichen Sounds und der Spaß nimmt kein Ende. Alles ist sehr wertig gebaut, Tastatur macht Geräusche, ja ist ja auch ne Hammermechanik.Für die Leute die Ihren Workflow verbessern wollen eine lohnenswerte Anschaffung.

Verarbeitung (5*) - Sieht und fühlt sich sehr hochwertig an. Keinerlei Beanstandung, wackelt oder ähnliches.Haptik (5*) - Tastenanschlag super.Anschluss (5*) - Einstecken und anbinden per Software. Eine Registrierung ist nicht notwendig, kann aber getan werden.Verpackung (5*) - Sehr gut verpackt.Fazit: War den Kauf wert.

Most wonderful equipment.....it works well with presonus studio 26c...thanks to M-Audio and Amazon.....and if u got more money just wait for M-Audio hammer 88 pro....

I have had my Hammer88 for about a month. I'm thrilled. I'm 61...I've been playing piano since I was a toddler, literally...running to our big upright grand and banging out the song i just heard on the radio. I'm a piano player. I've played many. If you need an incredibly life-like keyboard, this is it. And the 88Ensemble is a killer plugin to use.To address all the one-star and other negative reviews...they all seem to complain about heaviness, slowness, etc.If you leave all the settings to default, yes, it can "feel" sluggish. However, go to the lower right hand corner of the Ensemble88 screen, and adjust the velocity to "HARDEST"....voila...it's light as a feather once you do that. You must understand this keyboard is truly the best weighted controller I've played.My roommate bought a used (mostly used-up) Nord HP4...there was absolutely NO padding in the thing...every time you struck a key, no matter how gently, you heard a loud bonk...hammer on metal, echoing. It was loud enough that even playing with headphones, the downstairs neighbors still banged on the ceiling! the knocking was that loud!With that in mind, this thing is QUIET AS A MOUSE! Had a friend listen to me play it with just headphones on and he said you can hear some light noises, but nothing like that Nord. So I'm happy with that...I can put the phones on and play at 3am, neighbors or no.There is a caveat with one aspect of how it performs, but for me it's mostly inconsequential. It is sometime subject to, if you are not hitting the key properly, the key not triggering the sound. However, if your finger positions are in good form, and you hit each key squarely, this isn't an issue. It's the "sideways hits" that make this happen, from what I've noticed in this first month.This thing is solid and built like a tank, and I'm very glad of that. It don't feel like I'm banging on a piece of plastic that's about to break. It feels like a piano.And one other thing about the software: on the 88Ensemble, you will run into some oddness with the pedal, unless you choose one of the "COMPLETE" pianos (A, B, etc)...these contain all the 45-second fades and ambient sounds when you hold the pedal down...it's actually quite good! I've hit ten note chords and quickly run up and down, pedal pressed, and every note sounded. Each of the "COMPLETE" pianos with "SOLO" in the name are amped up and sound killer for rock piano. "B Complete Solo" is my favorite so far.So, if you're a life-long piano player and you need a controller, this is it. The software is good. I'm using it on both my older MacBookPro and MacPro Cheezegrater tower. Runs beautifully. There is a bit of a pain-in-the-ass where the "authorization" mess is concerned. I hate that kinda stuff to begin with, and this "iLok" thing isn't that intuitive. BUT: you're allowed TWO activations with each plugin, so put 'em on a studio Mac and a portable Mac with the iLok thing, and yer set.Ableton is the quickest and easiest thing to get going with. ProTools is as obtuse as ever.And I gotta say the VELVET electronic piano plugin RULES! EVERY make/model of significant electric piano from the '60s and '70s. All very well done. Nice graphics, too.And Hammond emulator with LESLIE emulation also???? WOWOWOWOW!!!!! IT sounds real. I've played a real B3. I've been around and used REAL Leslies...this is VERY cool and easy to use.SO: Get to know your software. Dig for help videos, because AIR "support" is totally non-existant!BUT BUY THIS THING BEFORE THEY "UPDATE" IT AND SCREW IT UP!!!!!!UPDDATE 05-16-21: TO EVERYBODY COMPLAINING OF LOOSE USB JACKS, THROW AWAY THE ORIGINAL CABLE AND GET A FRESH NEW CABLE WITHOUT THE STUPID FERRITE COIL KNOB IN IT!!!!!!!! VOILA !!!!!! PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!! NOW, GO GET A NEW CABLE AND STOP TRASHING THIS BEAUTIFUL KEYBOARD ON THE WEB!

I received my Hammer 88 very fast even it was immediately after New Year. Thank you so much for your good service, I really enjoy my new keyboard!

No vale lo que cuesta

Muy buen peso y sistema de acción martillo en las teclas, te acostumbras rápidamente si vienes de un piano acústico. El control de modulación es un poco sensible, lo esperava más robusto para que no se te vaya demasiado, pero no está mal tampoco.

Solo he tenido otro piano electrico con el que poder compararlo, el yamaha p125. Las teclas del Hammer pesan un poco más y todas lo mismo, en cambio las del p125 pesan un poco menos y las teclas agudas son todavía más ligeras que las graves. No he notado ninguna otra diferencia entre ambos, a excepción de que el Hammer al ser el primer controlador que he tenido estuve una tarde entera para conseguir hacerlo funcionar con el Ableton live. En conclusión, buen piano-controlador, estoy contento con la compra.Otra cosa que cabe destacar es que pesa bastante.
