Akai LPK25 Laptop Performance Keyboard Details
The LPK25 laptop performance keyboard is a USB-MIDI controller for musicians, producers, DJs and other music creators. It measures less than 13 inches across and weighs less than a pound to easily fit into a laptop case, backpack or messenger bag for extreme portability.

Keyboard players who want to work with software on their computer will find that the LPK25 gives their laptop the keys they need to express themselves anywhere.

The LPK25 is a scaled-down relative to the MPK series of keyboard performance controllers. The diminutive keyboard is made up of 25 miniature, velocity-sensitive keyboard keys with synth action.

The LPK25 contains an arpeggiator, which steps through chords automatically, assisting musicians with creating quick melodic ideas. Sustain, octave up and down and tap tempo controls round out the LPK25’s easy-to-learn layout.

The LPDK25 works plug and play with Mac and PC and requires no software driver installation or wall power for operation. It has four memory banks for programming and recalling settings appropriate to different software programs you use.

Create melodic and harmonic riffs in seconds, anywhere, with the LPK25.

LPK25 June 23, 2010
Reviewer: Nate  
The LPK25 is an item I purchased to complement my OTHER purchase of the Akai LPD8. Since I travel a lot, these are fantastic for putting them into my carry on bag.

The LPK25 has a small footprint, and as such the keys are obviously too small to use in the same manner as a full sized keyboard. However, I don't count it against the unit. It does, however, have some flexibility with the included driver and software to save presets which is invaluable to any user. The keys are responsive and I was very surprised at how well they translate velocity information into my DAW software. Extremely accurate overall. The only slight issue is that some of the keys seem to be slightly more or less responsive than others. But for the price, and the intended use, this isn't as big of a problem as it would be for a normal sized keyboard.

Overall I find it to be extremely useful for getting my ideas down when I'm on the go. If I broke, or lost the unit I would definitely buy a replacement for it.
