Graphite M25 MINI USB MIDI Controller

I bough this mini piano for a present, after looking on different stores, I found this in Walmart for a very reasonable price.

Great midi keyboard more than I asked for days early

I feel mixed about this product. Here are my thoughts on the product itself: - great keys and velocity curve - trigger pads are slightly too stiff - pitch and mod ribbons are slightly finicky, but work well enough - everything else works well As you might see, the product itself works well... But there is a different side: Compatibility. I had a very rough time, so I'll give you the tl;dr: - Not friendly to Linux users. (Very little FOSS software that recognises the midi controller) - FOSS software that does recognize it tend to be lacking in features or have convoluted set-ups for Linux. Conclusion: If you in the specific circumstance I am in (poor, picking up first midi controller, and using linux) I would advise to pick up a different cheap midi controller to save the hassle. Those other ones have better mod/pitch wheels anyway. If you are using anything other than Linux though, this would not be the worst option in the world. But it is advisable to shell out a little more (about 10 USD more) for midi controllers that will have more value and better features. My score: 3.5/5 Have a sunny day!
