Music Computing ControlBLADE 5 Base Windows w/22 inch Touchscreen – computer-based keyboard production station

I currently own a ControlBLADE 61-Key Windows platform keyboard. As a professional musician, I find that this is the most effective and efficient music workstation available. The ControlBLADE is an awesome unit, for both studio and live performance.I have owned equipment from Music Computing since it was founded, and have owned this unit since June, 2012. This company is absolutely the BEST; their customer service is amazing. I have never called with a concern or a question where I did not find the best answer. They take pride in their product, and take the time needed to insure that I am getting the most out of my equipment. They have even helped me with various upgrades as they became available.My faith and confidence in Music Computing, and their quality equipment, is such that I own several pieces of gear.I know that I am not alone in my praise of this company, and that there are many, many happy customers using Music Computing products.I can, confidently, recommend any piece of gear or equipment manufactured by Music Computing. They are the kind of people who make the best in all that they create.

I own the original Ikey dock,and 1 controlblade gen 2 windows along with a gen3 controlblade mac version. All 3 of my units work flawlessly! and have been for several years now. I can not say enough about this company, they go the extra mile to get you up and running and keep you that way with lifetime support its an all in 1 production unit where you can get pro results! These systems are well worth the money! If you are serious abut making music you need to get 1.

I had a chance to work on one of these a few months ago and honestly, if you have $3,600 to spend on your studio...Spend it elsewhere.This thing has to be the most hideous looking, un-innovative hodgepodge of hardware I have ever seen....But then again, this IS Music Computing. I seriously do not know how these guys ever made it into the market. Just like everything else they make, it looks slapped together by Finn from Adventure Time.Yes this model IS six years old...as you can tell by the hardware, but trust me, their new stuff is just as hideous and poorly designedAs far as value???2009 model MPK61 $300Tascam US-1200 $7510 point touch screen 22" monitor (and their's is not a 10 point touch) $329Comparable computer hardware $600Wusic Station $79SonicSource - WorthlessWindows 7 Pro $139Total $1522Oh I'm sorry...a really poorly constructed box to weld, screw and glue everything onto/into $1827.00
