Brilliant!
Brilliant! Nicely sensitive pads and just plug and play with Logic. Amazing for the money. Only shame is some lights stay on when the Mac is sleeping.

BeatPad
I bought this for my son and it was a bit tricky to set up but once we worked it out it worked great. He's able to make beats on it and it plays when he taps it so it works. This was alright pricing as its actually good quality.

Vst and Daw control 🎶
I use this for controlling vst functions and volume faders in the Reaper DAW. It is very easy to setup and also performs well in triggering drum samples. For the price it is a bargain but it really does need more comprehensive setup instruction, which are inadequate and hard to locate .

Don’t bother!
I can only give this one star and I don’t even want to give it that. It’s cheap and doesn’t work and because I ordered it well before Christmas I am passed the return window. I downloaded all the required software to go with it and it just simply doesn’t work. That is all I can say. I spent over 12 hours faffing about with it and even got a tech expert to look at it and the verdict is that it is just rubbish. Could be the cable that doesn’t work but tried other cables and still doesn’t work. No sound output, nothing. Total waste of money and can’t get a refund either. 🤨 had quite a disappointed teenager on Christmas Day!

Good but.....
It looks great but is sadly let down by its own limitations so returned it for refund & bought a Presonus Atom.

Perfect for iPad Pro or MacBook Pro.
Pads are adjustable and responsive, it works great with GarageBand and logic. The supplied usb is not good and caused connection issues, so I bought a better one.

ding Akai Beats. Ableton Live, Maschine and Serato Studio and it worked very well in all of those professional DAWs. I like it because it's small/compacted and I also like the Editor that you can download from Donner's website. Bottom line it's not a toy and it's great for professionals as well as beginners.

Hab mir den Donner MIDI Pad Controller geholt und muss sagen: Richtig cooles kleines Spielzeug! 🎶🔥 Perfekt, wenn man Beats bauen oder ein bisschen mit Sounds rumspielen will. Die Pads sind angenehm zu drücken und reagieren gut – nicht super hochwertig wie bei teuren Controllern, aber für den Preis echt top. Die Tasten fühlen sich okay an und tun, was sie sollen. Läuft problemlos per USB, einfach einstöpseln und loslegen. Für schnelle Ideen, Jammen oder einfach zum Spaß haben ist das Ding echt super. Wer Profi-Qualität erwartet, sollte vielleicht woanders schauen, aber für Einsteiger oder Hobby-Produzenten? Definitiv ein spaßiges Teil! 🎹✨

I am not an experienced user, and found it to be a little tougher to get used to. Otherwise it is a very good sinth.

Davvero nulla da eccepire su questo Starrypad della Donner. Pagato 59€ con il codice sconto, a questa cifra non è possibile trovare di meglio. Piccolo, piuttosto robusto e con dei mini pad che funzionano veramente bene, buona la dinamica, non fanno rimpiangere troppi i prodotti Akai che costano il doppio. Cavi un po' corti ma in dotazione troviamo oltre al classico cavo USB-C con presa A anche un adattatore sempre USB-C per collegarlo allo smartphone o al tablet. Presente anche una porta midi din per il collegamento ad hardware esterno anche questa completa del relativo cavo. Manuale cartaceo stringato ma abbastanza chiaro anche se contiene un errore: per suonare le note invece che i drum pad, non importa premere il tasto shift, basta cambiare strumento sulla Daw con il quale viene utilizzato. Manca la funzione di sync per il note repeat ma si può ovviare con la funzione tap tempo, molto semplice ed intuitiva come tutto il resto. A proposito di Daw, ottimo il corredo software che ci regala Cubase Le 13, Wavelab Le 11 e Cubasis Le per i dispositivi mobile: niente male per il prezzo. Fra l'altro, se decidete di aggiornare Cubase Le alla versione Elements 13, il costo dell'aggiornamento è di 50€ circa quindi recuperate praticamente il costo del controller... Con Cubasis 3 che ho su tablet Android si imposta in pochi minuti e funziona a meraviglia. Stesso discorso per la versione desktop anche se bisogna conoscere la propria Daw per permettere al controller il funzionamento dei comandi di trasporto che vanno impostati manualmente, i pad invece, almeno su Cubase, sono già mappati correttamente. Anche su Ableton Live si possono suonare i Drum Rack senza problemi premendo il tasto shift e scegliendo una delle 3 banche a disposizione. Se aggiungiamo che si può scaricare anche un editor per la personalizzazione di tutti i controlli presenti (fra l'altro fatto davvero bene) non posso che consigliarlo a chiunque, sono soldi ben spesi.
