does it work as a midi controller?

I sent this keyboard back immediately after trying it. It would play multiple notes even when I carefully tried to play one note at a time. I don't know how it would work as a midi controller, but if it was like the one I got, it would be a disaster.

Yes. You can use this bad as a midi controller by sending many signals from midi out into the median in of the SR 18. Though, I believe the don't numbers sent by this device or fixed. This would mean that you would have to adjust the new numbers on the SR 18 to match the samples you want to trigger.

No, this is only a controller. You need to connect it to a computer with music/instrument software or a MIDI-compatible instrument (like a synthesizer).

You can connect this unit to your computer using the USB cable - it'll function as a MIDI controller for your favorite computer software to get even more functionality

No, it's simply a MIDI controller that can be used to control faders, the transport, Solo/Mute buttons, and really anything else that can be MIDI mapped to buttons, knobs, or faders. So you can use it to control audio channels, but it itself does not actually take in or put out any audio signal.

It's a USB class compliant MIDI controller, meant to control software plugins being ran on your computer, but it also has a generic MIDI-out port that you can use with any hardware.

Yes you would just need the midi to usb or whatever port is on your hardware could be usb to usb.

Yes. You can also use the PSR-E243 as a MIDI controller, or take advantage of its USB to Host connectivity and interface it with computers or iOS devices.

Yes, it's a standar midi device. But I don't recomend this one, mine 8 keys stop working after few use. Go for a M-Audio.

It should work with any MIDI device, however, be careful about the computer. Windows 7 has little support for it and Windows 8 has NONE!

Hi , as a midi controller it doesn't make sounds on its own, all you have is rubber pads, just in case it helps if you're searching other midi controllers, cuz it's the same concept. ( unless it specifically mentions otherwise): synth & midi.

its a midi controller, it should work with with any program that accepts midi in or midi out

Yes. If the software supports midi it will support this device. But I suggest just saving up a little more for an mpk25 or one of the other keyboard/drum pad combos. Also I was dissatisfied with the sensitivity of the pads themselves. Ended up reselling mine on craigslist within 2 months of buying it.

Not by itself. it is a MIDI controller and not a playing keyboard. That means that, even if it is operating under it's own driver software, you will still need to plug your earphones into your computer's earphone jack to cut any "outside" audio.

I bought a MIDI to USB connector, but I could never get it to actually connect to my computer. Also, it only has an output, not an input.

Yeah, it's a midi controller, it does the same thing as a midi controller keyboard. I use it with Reason and Logic, it's pretty amazing.

No, because it only a midi controller. If you using a laptop with sound then yes
