The Midiplus AK490 MIDI keyboard has 49 velocity-sensitive keys that provide a natural and responsive playing feel. The dynamics of the keys allow an expressive playing style - from gentle piano runs to powerful synthesizer sounds. The pitch bend wheel and the modulation wheel offer additional control and enable finely tuned sound changes in real time.
A special feature of the Midiplus AK490 is its flexible power supply: You can either power it via USB directly from your computer or alternatively via 6 AA batteries - ideal for mobile setups or use away from the studio. The USB-B port is used for both MIDI communication and power supply (bus-powered), so no additional power supply unit is required.
Two separate MIDI-out interfaces allow you to easily connect the AK490 to external hardware - be it a synthesizer, drum machine or other MIDI device. The classic 6.3 mm jack input for a sustain pedal expands the expressive possibilities when playing in a natural way. Despite its many features, the device remains extremely compact and easy to transport with dimensions of 830 x 255 x 70 mm and a weight of just 3.2 kg.
The AK490 deliberately comes without unnecessary extras such as pads, knobs, faders or displays - the focus is on the essentials: playing and musical expression. The reduced surface promotes focused work and is particularly suitable for musicians who prefer uncomplicated MIDI control.
If you are looking for a reliable, inexpensive and easy-to-use MIDI keyboard, the Midiplus AK490 MIDI keyboard is the perfect choice. Beginners in particular will benefit from the clearly structured user interface, simple setup and immediate readiness for use. However, experienced users will also appreciate the robust design and precise playability of the keys.
The AK490 is also ideal for mobile use thanks to its extensive range of connections and the option of battery operation. It can be easily integrated into existing setups - whether in the studio or on stage. The absence of aftertouch, split zones or layer functions has been deliberately chosen and makes the device ideal for users who prefer a simple and reliable MIDI keyboard without unnecessary complexity.
With its balanced mix of functionality, compactness and playing comfort, the Midiplus AK490 is a well thought-out working instrument for all those who want to creatively realize music with digital means. The solid workmanship, well thought-out design and high-quality key mechanism make the keyboard a long-lasting companion in everyday musical life.
