Bought this to trigger midi drums on Cubase. Pretty good however pads could be a bit more sensitive. Loading my own samples was easy however manual is rubbish had to go to YouTube for the how.

Works as advertised! Good sensitivity, nice design, fine sound banks. Just short of 5 stars by not having a good built in reverb. Still, would recommend.

It’s OK, but not great. The main larger pads work pretty well although it would be nice if they were a bit more sensitive. You can adjust the sensitivity, but even at the highest setting they don’t respond as I would like when doing rolls etc. The smaller pads at the top are terrible. They have to be hit really hard to trigger making them almost unusable. I wanted something simple with at least two pads to trigger midi and / or samples. For the price, it’s OK. I couldn’t find any alternatives in this price range that had at least two pads.

Just getting my head around this brilliant piece of kit. I think it's going to be a great addition to my studio setup.

Instructions could be a bit clearer.
