Advantages: Small, Transportable, LOTS of features, Good Build Quality

Disadvantages: Nothing (Unless you need a bigger size)

First off, this is a great little keyboard which should be a staple in EVERY studio, but the only thing I ask you to consider is how big you need your keyboard.

I initally bought this keyboard thinking that I'd only need 2 octaves but after EXTENSIVE use, I feel I should have gone for a much larger one - so i suggest you look into it.

The feature set of this keyboard is outstanding for the price including an LCD screen, transport section (loop, rewind, fast forward, play etc.), programmeable pots, octave selection, velocity sensitivity keys, modulation wheel and pitch wheel - ALL for just over £50?

Not only does it have all these features, but it feels VERY sturdy and takes travelling extremely well. I would suggest getting this keyboard for travelling only, for anything more studio based, get a bigger one - maybe even an Oxygen 61.

Whatever size you decided to buy, make sure it's an M-Audio Oxygen, it can't be beaten on build quality and features for the price.

Summary: Great keyboard for the price!
