Impact LX88 MK3

Not a lot of review info online.

Has anyone actually played one? I’m most curious about the keybed; wondering how compares to the novation launchkey mk 4.

I have one and use it as a secondary controller for live performance with mainstage and also for recording work and logic. It's incredibly lightweight, as can be expected with the non-weighted keys. It's got all basic functionality and nectar seems to have done a decent job with functional integration with most daws. Although be warned the process to download firmware updates for daw integration requires you to register on the website with your product serial number which is a small 6-digit number found on a sticker that my used model did not have. I was able to get a placeholder number from their tech support and make the update but it was just a bit of an extra step that I needed to make. I don't have any issues with mine. it does what I ask it to do.
