    5 Stars
    Exactly as described.
    It works well with both PreSonus Studio One 6 and GarageBand. Make sure to purchase a sustain pedal as it doesn’t come with one. No issues so far and I’m happy with my purchase.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great and stylish little controller
    Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2023
    The Akai Professional MPK Mini MK3 is a 25-key MIDI keyboard controller that is packed with features and functionality. It offers a great playing experience and a wide range of controls that make it perfect for both studio and live use.

    One of the biggest pros of the MPK Mini MK3 is its build quality. The controller is constructed with high-quality materials, making it durable and sturdy, it feels solid without being too heavy. The pads and keys are velocity sensitive, feel great to play and are highly responsive, providing a satisfying playing experience. The controller also features a built-in arpeggiator, octave shift buttons, and a powerful 4-way joystick for pitch and modulation control. These features make it easy to add expression and creativity to your music. Additionally, the controller includes MPC Beats and a bunch of instruments and sample packs, which is a great DAW for those who are looking to start making music.

    Another pro of the MPK Mini MK3 is its sleek and retro-futuristic design. The gray version of the controller in particular looks very cool and modern, making it stand out in any studio or stage setting.

    One of the cons of the MPK Mini MK3 is its limited number of keys. The controller only has 25 keys, which may not be enough for some musicians who require a larger keyboard.

    Another con is that the keys are a little small and might be difficult to use for people with larger hands, but that's a tradeoff you have to make for portability. And portable it is! Very easy to throw in your backpack and take on the go.

    Overall, the Akai Professional MPK Mini MK3 is a great MIDI controller that offers a wide range of features and functionality.
    Its build quality and design make it stand out, but it's limited number and size of keys are a drawback. If you're in need of a compact and portable MIDI controller that offers a great playing experience, the MPK Mini MK3 is definitely worth considering.
