      Hi everyone,

      I am shopping around and looking to purchase a midi controller to use with my VJ performances. Curious what y'all use and if you had any recommendations? I like the idea of having a symmetrical controller, as my interface is set up that way. 

      Thanks!

        I have been using a Korg Nano Kontroller, or my Akia MPD 26.

        But I have a Numark Orbit, and am really hoping to spend sometime to make it my primary controller.

        It is:

        • symmetrical
        • Color programmable
        • Wireless
        • can send XY tilt data to Isadora also.
        • can be worn around your neck 
        • A little older now... so cheap to purchase (got mine for $50 CAD)

        see: https://www.numark.com/product...

                I am also just getting into designing my own interfaces with https://sensel.com
                There are some nice prebuild / printed user interfaces like the 'Music Production Overlay' but the fact that you can design your own with the 'Sensel App' is really whats interesting to me.

                  Cool, thanks for sharing everyone. Does anyone have any experience with the Native Instruments TRAKTOR KONTROL S4?
