The best controller keyboard out there
santamorphic 06.05.2015
I understand Hans Zimmer uses this controller keyboard in his studios. Though is is probably more elegantly built into his furniture.

The keyboard inside is a Fatar and I believe it has three different resistance levels in the low mid and high ranges. I used to have a Nord Piano 88 purely for the way the keybaord responded to touch but I never use the piano sounds. I only wnated it because it felt right under the fingers. Eventually I found out that the Doepfer LMK4+ had nearly the same keybed and so took the plunge.

Really very happy with it replacing my Nord Piano as a controller. The keybed is better because of the three-way split on the keyboard rather than two for the Nord Piano, from what I understand. Also it doesn't have that grindy crunch when pressing down the keys on cheaper controllers. For instance my experience with the M-Audio Keystation was not good. The keys all had a heavy resistance that felt clunky and difficult and not particularly piano-like. Of course the price-difference is a factor, but if using an 88 key controller keyboard day-in-day-out the LMK4+ is an excellent workhorse.

The only one minor flaw is the power supply. It is a European plug, so a converter is needed or a replacement power supply. Also the power input on the back of the unit is non-standard, using an XLR type connector. But once set up and working who cares.

Ersatz für 25 Jahre alten Vorgänger - gute Qualität wie erwartet
Anonymous 26.06.2016
Dieses Gerät ist als Ersatz angeschafft worden für ein Vorgängerexemplar des gleichen Modells - mir waren nach 25 Jahren intensiven Gebrauchs (und etlicher Transporte) einige Tasten mit Midi-Fehlern ausgestiegen.
Wer die erweiterten Midi-Controller-Features des LMK4 kennt und braucht, und wer zudem Bedienelemente oberhalb der Tastatur nicht gebrauchen kann, kommt an dem Doepfer nicht vorbei.
Die verbaute Tastatur ist inzwischen etwas stärker gewichtet als beim Vorgänger, spielt sich aber sehr angenehm.
Wenn dieses Exemplar wieder 25 Jahre "on the road" durchhält, bin ich zufrieden.

PS: Auch das alte Gerät arbeitet inzwischen wieder einwandfrei: am Ende war nur eine Reinigung und eine prophylaktische Nachbesserung einer Lötstelle erforderlich. Das konnte ich selbst erledigen - der Doepfer-Service hat hier top und äußerst kulant beraten!

Besoin de splits nombreux alors c'est le bon choix
Kolia 14.11.2012
Associé à l'interface PC (qui communique en midi et non USB) c'est un vrai plaisir de programmer le clavier.
Le touché est tout à fait agréable.
Bon choix
