Review: Perfect for what it does: great for notation. - First, I want to explain my use-case for the Xkey 24 Air: I wanted something compact, zero frills and wireless. It also needed to be accurate - no dropped notes. I use this keyboard for transcribing music in a place more comfortable than sitting at my piano. There are several things need to know about midi keyboards: they don't make sounds by themselves - see my video. The sheer number of returns on midi keyboards is high enough I have to assume people think these are synthesizer keyboards. The Xkey depends on some other external device to produce sound. Just like the keyboard for your computer is not a word processor by itself. Point number two: there is latency with ALL wireless connections. Bluetooth MIDI is no exception. The wireless MIDI connection for XKey Air is fast – assuming you have a good connection (I can only speak for Mac/Apple products, since they have low-latency wireless Bluetooth MIDI connections built in). I have seen the videos of people using it for real-time recording or performances, but ultimately the purpose of the Xkey Air is not for live performance. It is for MIDI composition, notation software so you can type out the notes, DAWs, etc. With all this in mind, this keyboard does a great job! The construction is on par with my wireless Apple computer keyboard, with a lightweight metal from. The keys have a mechanism which makes the whole key move up and down, with no pivot point – think like an old-school mechanical computer keyboard. There is a bit of “clickity clack” from the keys when playing, since their travel distance is so short, on par with a mechanical keyboard as well. They sense velocity and aftertouch, although the usefulness of these features is purely software dependent. You can sustain a key and change octaves if needed. And yes, it is normal for the blue light to be on solid when connected wirelessly, and the red light to slowly flash. Also, comes in a nice, quality box with USB Micro charging cable..
Review: WAY better than I thought (and for me better than the AKAI MPK mini) - OK kids. I liked this WAY WAY WAY better than I thought I would. I wanted something portable with full size keys and didn't need extra sliders knobs and other rarely used extras. I am a serious electronic music producer and things like after touch are a must for my world. In my main studio I have full size equipment, and I bought this to use when setting up temporary studio on the road. I appreciate the compact size. After unboxing, it took about 2 mins to get it bluetooth connected. The bluetooth is very low latency and the included USB cable can be used to connect to the computer as well. Feel and velocity are definitely different with this style of keyboard, but it is an easy trade off when compared to other controllers with mini keys -- i.e. I prefer the full size keys with less travel than mini keys with full travel. Velocity sensitivity works very well, as does the polyphonic after touch. The xkey software is SUPER impressive for setting up the keyboard. You don't have to have it but I strongly suggest downloading it - you will get the sense of how well this whole solution is thought through and implemented. You can set velocity sensitivity and curves and lock in great responsiveness to how you play. I also liked being able to set the auto-off timing for what suits me - it came set for 15 mins and that was too short for me, so I set it to 1 hour. Could be never if I wanted. I also appreciated being able to check for firmware updates and impressed that they even have firmware updates. This is way more of a robust solution than I had realized shopping for this online. The keyboard is well built and sturdy, and the configuration software is robust. Overall, I am more impressed than I thought I would be and thrilled with my choice. BTW - as an aside, I also bought the Akai MPK Mini MK3 25 key controller. I found it too difficult to play with the mini keys that are pretty stiff so it is going back.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Might be the best MIDI Keyboard ever owned
*by A***R on April 22, 2020*

As a musician who is already tired of carrying bulky instruments everywhere I go; meeting the XKey Air is a dream come true. Its light, compact, sturdy and does the job. if you're a musician looking to travel around a lot but don't want to compromise your productivity and the load you have to carry each time, I definitely encourage you to give this product a shot. Good thing is you could still use it as a Wired USB controller if you wish to so you will get max performance at all times. Great innovation!
