I owned a few midi controllers over the past years, all of them coming short for one reason or another: build quality, daw integration, ease of configuration/customisation... ATOM SQ has blown me away about every aspect, so far. If StudioOne is your preferred Daw, if you look for a portable production/performance controller, if you're looking for something that won't feel like a toy in your hands... Get yourself one today!Read more Read less
