Hello!,

can someone suggest me some Keyboard MIDI Controllers which fit well using with an MPC 1000?
I dont care about the Price or anything else, just tell me some.


Thank you in advance!

Not sure how you define 'fit well' - basically any MIDI keyboard works with the MPC1000 as long as it has a traditional 5 pin MIDI out port. Beyond that, you'll need to work out what your requirements are for a keyboard, i.e. number of keys, key action, key size etc. What are you going to use the keyboard for? Playing attached synths or triggering MPC samples?

Ok, I just wanted to have a midi keyboard to be able to play melodies with the samples on my MPC by using a keyboard instead of using the pads.
Thanks for your help.

I have a Dave Smith Mopho and Microkorg XL that work great with the MPC 1000. Anything with middi in/out will do. When you get higher end products, say Moog or a Nord, you get what you pay for .. quality sounds.
