    I got the Donner MIDI keyboard a while ago - embrassingly a year ago as it happens - with grand ambitions. I installed Cakewalk, watched exactly 1 YouTube video tutorial, and put it in the "Nice purchase, steep learning curve, CBF" basket.

    If anyone has some good reference on making music start to finish with one of these things, please let me know!

      "Nice purchase, steep learning curve, CBF"

      lol, a true OzBargain'er will have many of these.

      I now want one of these to put in my basket, despite having bought a full-size midi compatible digital piano.

        I would like to purchase this basket, for the associated ozb purchased items, thanks.

      To be fair $71.50 seems like a great price for that! I'm disappointed I didn't get it, but I'd probably be in the same place is you a year later…

      Garage band or logic pro. Apple ecosystem only.

      • +2

        Yeah, that's not going to work for me. There are gazillions of Garage Band tutorials, so maybe I'll buy a Mac and an iPhone so I can make some music with my $70 keyboard.

        • I’m hoping my 2014 iMac with GarageBand can drive this thing for me and the kids to muck around with.

          It might still be on snow leopard, so I’m not confident. If not, I have some other options.

          Also, not sure if you’re serious, but you won’t need an iPhone and it comes with Windows software I’m pretty sure. Don’t spend on anything else straight away just for this.

        • Why would you downgrade your phone? ;)

          BTW It's possible to run Mainstage on non-Apple Hardware (Like Me) :)

            @BewareOfThe Dog: Haha, I was being facetious, all good my friend. There's a few Linux options too I believe, I just need to start somewhere and persevere.

            Although, agreed - GarageBand seems easy to enter, and quite powerful, which is probably the kind of thing I need, rather than a full studio style DAW.

    Imagine my confusion when I got an email for my saved alert for “Dremel”…

      If you need any of those things, I’m sure there will be a few spares around here ;)

    • Haha, apologies

    All black looks slick. I have a Launchkey mini, as long as you don't need to record 2 hands at once these tiny keyboards are great space savers and perfect for travelling with a laptop.

      I just bought an Alesis Vortex 2. Hard to get ATM (till late August).

  • This looks great to get the kids started, but the absence of an inbuilt speaker & battery compartment is making me second-guess… do I upgrade to the MPK Mini Play instead??

    • +1

      Hey, just to be clear this is a midi controller keyboard - ie: it's designed to control other software on a computer, it doesn't have in-built sounds at all.

      • +1

        Exactly - hence why I was looking at the MPK Mini MkIII Play instead, which DOES have a speaker & headphone jack.

        $40 extra, hence why I'm thinking that's a reasonable price for the battery compartment and speaker to make it truly standalone & portable. Not on special though.

        • +1

          Ahh ok, I didn't know they did a product like that. I just wanted to make sure you didn't think this was something it wasn't (some people see a keyboard like this and just assume it makes it's own sounds and can get caught out). Anyway, all good!

          • @narcoleptic-haze: Yeah, I didn't realise at first until I was researching. I'm sure I won't be the only one!

            I couldn't find any other brands/models that had inbuilt speakers either in a mini size; it's either a plastic toy synth or a full-size keyboard - neither of which is really what I wanted for my kids to tinker with. $182 is rather steep, but at least it's a quality product that'll last for years.
