Nice and sturdy, but lightweight. Fits the Akai mini keyboard well.

I picked up this affordable case for my new MPK mini play the fit is perfect and doesn't press down the keys when it's closed. There's a padded insert to protect the keys . There's just enough room for a few cords and the manual. The space is perfectand the keyboard doesn't get stuck so it can be easily removed.

Very nice case. I already had a case for my Akai mini. I wanted to see if this case would fit my Elektron Samples unit and sure enough it fits quite nicely along with the the power chord! It has a very nice plush material inside and it certainly provides enough of protection to keep your unit protected. I primarily needed it to keep my Elektron unit free from dust because I am a phanatic when it comes to taking care of my gear.I wouldn’t be surprised if this case would be a good fit for other 25 key controller keyboards and not just limited to the Akai mini as I was pleasantly surprised to discover!Another really nice thing is the seller had contacted me to ensure that I receive the product! I thought that was pretty nice! I would given 6 stars!

This product works great for the akai apk mk2(and probably a few other mini controllers). Excellent interior material, nice mesh net to keep usb cables in.Exterior & overall construction is similar to the magma cases djs use to carry controllers around in, so you know what your getting here. It works and holds up.I went with this one over the other because of the interior mesh sleeve and material used inside. I'm very happy with the purchase.This also includes a handle that works and is well attached but I've usually tossed this into a backpack.If your looking for a small case for you apk mini this is a smart move.

This thing is great. It protects mine, protect my keyboard, and it’s still compact enough to fit in my backpack great.

I have been a musician for more than 15 years, playing the mandolin in acoustic jam sessions, bands and home recordings. I have also produced amateur recordings for about ten years, using several different hardware based digital multi-track recorders. In the last year I switched to computer based recording, when I discovered the affordability and astonishing breadth of capability offered by software systems. My choice of software is Logic Pro X and Mainstage 3. As I became familiar with the OSX music production software, I realized the importance of a midi controller to make use of the numerous software instruments and other digital music production techniques. I have nearly no keyboard skill, so this meant learning, not only a new musicianship skill, but also learning the technical nuts and bolts of digital music production methods. After several months of familiarizing myself with the capabilities of Logic and Mainstage I felt like I was ready to make a reasonably informed decision about what might be my best first midi hardware gear purchase. In this review I list the features I felt I would need to best enable my progress toward some minimal level of competence and how well I believe this controller met my expectations.First, I needed a keyboard that would not be a hindrance to learning to play a keyboard. I reasoned that I need full-sized keys, with velocity sensitivity, aftertouch, an adequate number octaves, a pitch bend wheel and a modulation wheel. Admitting that I do not have any experience against which to evaluate how this controller measures up against these criteria, I am very pleased with how this keyboard met my expectations. although not weighted, the key bed feels substantial and operates smoothly. Although far short of a full-sized 88-key behemoth, the Launchkey 49 seems completely adequate. The pitch and mod wheels are sturdy and responsive.To have some flexibility in mapping screen controls, in Mainstage and assigning them to physical midi controls, I predicted that I would need a reasonable number of knobs and sliders. While Launchkey controllers are specifically designed to map to the Abelton Live interface, I have found this controller to be sufficiently flexible for a variety of Mainstage patch configurations with enough physical controls to manage a number of instrument parameters, effects sends, patch changes etc.

This is a nice case for the Akai MPK mini MK2. It does what it's supposed to. I mainly bought it to store it in when I have it at home and I'm not using it. It should keep dust and any other mishaps from happening to it. It comes with two velcro cable wraps so you can keep the USB cable nice and tucked into the case as well. I bought the version with the honeycomb foam insert and it works really well. I give this thing 5 stars. BTW mine didn't stink when I got it like some people are saying theirs did. I think they may be smelling their upper lip as we used to say as kids. LOL! Anyway, get one now!

Fits my mpk mini plus perfectly.
