MIDI Beat Pad Controller, 16 RGB Backlit Drum Pads Beat Maker | Equipped with 16 Force-Sensitive RGB Backlit Pads and 4 Customizable Control Knobs, Suitable for Beginners, Black

I hardly ever write reviews on Amazon. But I’m going to write one for this tempo pad. I’ve been struggling to learn Ableton and Ableton Note, I even used AI to try and find me the best midi controller that would specifically work with note but all the advice was wrong. I’m very happy with this device because I could map all the knobs and able to note thus I don’t have to rely on the screen. It’s simple to use comes with documentation, cords and adapters, and as well packaged. I’ve used many other products but this one seems to be complete with needed functionality and a good price. Again, this is a great controller to work with ableton note. I’ve used many others and they did not work as well as this. Sorry for any grammar mistakes I’m dictating this message

I appreciated this product's nice, sturdy build, and impressive size and touch functionality. However, I had trouble getting it to work with my iOS mobile production setup. It came with all the necessary cables and instructions, making it seem easy to set up. Overall, for the price, it seemed like a great deal, but unfortunately, it didn't work out for me.

IMPOSSIBLE to PRESS. You’re wasting your money. It is not sensitive enough to press. It’s impossible to play and I threw it out. Very disappointed. I had to press it real hard and you won’t be able to play in beat.

Great product - I was honestly very surprised by the build quality for the price - it feels very solid, and does exactly what you expect it to. I did initially have a problem with connecting it to an iPad Pro, but they did an incredible amount of work to help me get it working and ensure I was happy, I was very impressed. Ultimately if you do plan to use with an iPad, I recommend using the cable that comes with it with a USB-A to USB-C (they're called OTG) adapter to ensure it gets the power it needs. Works great.

Easy setup. Sturdy. Well built. Inexpensive. I wish pads were a tad more responsive. But other than that, perfect.

Recieved today. Played it for 5 mins and put it back in the box. The notes play while not recording, but when you record, notes go silent, but still register in the midi on playback. The build is decent, size is good, but functionality is extremely poor. It has a ton of potential, but I wouldnt ever recommend it

Great and truly appreciated

These pads work more as buttons - pads should be almost static but sense the velocity on the strike. This is essential for finger drumming. This unit is useless for finger drumming. It is impossible to maintain tempo, which ironic given its name. However, this is a great product if your goal is to use it as a midi controller, to send CCs, Notes, PCs, etc, along with velocity. Very customizable, and I think it is worth it for the right purpose. I bought it to make beats while live looping, but it is not usable in this context. I will keep it to control my RC-600 looper.

Der Controller hat alle Anschlüsse, die man sich wünschen kann, sowie einen Ein/Aus-Schalter. Auch die Visualisierung ist sehr gut. Durch die RGB-LED's sieht man sofort, auf welcher der drei Bänke man sich gerade befindet. Die Pads lassen sich in einen inversen Leuchtmodus schalten, so dass man auch dort permanent die Farbe der Bank sieht. Die Knobs endlos, aber gerastert, was sie für Live-Effekte weniger geeignet macht. Angeblich kann man mit dem "Synido Pad16 Editor" die Skalierung der Knobs feiner einstellen, und vieles andere mehr. Das habe ich noch nicht ausprobiert. Um die Transport-Buttons für Ableton verfügbar zu machen, ist ebenfalls manuelle Konfiguration notwendig. Die Pads haben eine Sensitivität, die mit Keyboards ohne Hammer-Mechanik vergleichbar ist. Bei teuren, hoch sensitiven Pads könnte man die Hand neben das Gerät legen, und ein Pad würde beim Entspannen eines Fingers auslösen. Das ist beim TempoPAD nicht so. Wer also kein Finger-Drumming-Meister werden möchte, kann zugreifen.

Bought to use as a midi controller for the Boss RC600 loop station. This is exactly what you will need for this job. works a treat and comes with a midi jack to din adapter so you can plug it straight into the midi input with a midi cable. the software is also easy to use so you can change the midi mapping if you require.

The item I bought is faulty and the company does not answer my emails. Do yourself a favour and buy from a reputable manufacturer instead of this cheap nasty rubbish.
