Studiologic Music Keyboard Reviews

"10 This unit is being "dumped" by certain catalogue outfits for $80...10 When you ponder the history of strap on keyboard controllers you should be content that one can purchase a light MIDI four octave controller for $80...Pioneers in strap-ons going back to the late seventies would have horror stories of expensive prototypes so consider yourself lucky to be able to own something that can do the job for a modest investment..." read more »

"10 If I ever did lose this or if it got stolen, I'd most likely replace it...6 The keyboard (pedals) have good action, and the velocity sensitivity is good, actually quite good for a pedalboard...MIDI capabilities are good, but onboard controls are difficult to work with just you feet (impossible -- I have to reach down and do them..." read more »

"just beneath the surface of the mud, there's more mud here...I'd guess that most of the units sold come with these big church organ packages and that there's not much demand for separate units...I decided later it was not what I really wanted in my show..." read more »

"10 Just bought the SL760 as I needed a good master controller with a solid action /build and easy to use functions...I had been looking at this board for a while and it is exaclty what I was after...No Opinion No sounds on this board, just a good solid Controller..." read more »

"will it continue to work for a while...The feel of the board is good - the action is made by fatar afaik...OTOH, some of the older models have better MIDI implementations as they used to cover up to 16 zones, etc..." read more »

"For the past few weeks I’ve been composing on a Studiologic SL-990 Pro controller...It’s a large, heavy keyboard (roughly 50 pounds) and the action is really the primary selling point...In this regard it deviates dramatically from the current trend in controllers, which is to squeeze mixing controls onto the keyboard controller ala the Akai and some of the new M-Audio controllers (not a bad trend, as studios get less and less cluttered with hardware..." read more »

"The Studiologic SL-990XP is a Master Controller keyboard that will allow you to control MIDI instruments, sound modules and accessories...The SL-990XP provides MIDI Out and a sustain pedal input...The SL-990 xp is an awesome midi controller for the price...It's good for basic functions, and is personally the first midi controller that I've used in my home studio...Overall, I'm extremely happy that I bought this piece of hardware instead of the mainstream M-audios that everyone likes to make fun of..." read more »
