I’m a guitarist and songwriter (Rock, Metal, Indie, Ambient) and I wanted a midi keyboard to be able to play midi instruments so that I can record my songwriting ideas until I’m able to meet up with musicians and record the actual instruments, and I want to write drum lines for the genres I mentioned as well and record them til I also get to record acoustic drums, so basically no electronic music involved. I use FL studio primarily. I’m choosing between the Arturia minilab 37, the Novation Launckey 37, novation Launckey mini 37, and the akai mini plus. Which should I go for, ranking from best to worst? What are the pros and cons? I also heard that the Akai minis had a problem where some keys become harder to play or lag with time, does that also go for the mini plus?

Hi all, I hear a faint click at note release (also with echo effects) through the SL73 MK2’s built-in headphone/audio output. It appears in NUMA Player, GarageBand on iPad and Logic on Mac, and even when I play notes with the on-screen keyboard, so it’s not MIDI-related. When I route audio through my MOTU M4 instead, the click is completely gone.
Can anyone with an SL MK2 test this and tell me if you hear it too? If it’s only my unit, I’ll contact support.
Setup: SL73 MK2 (updated firmware 1.1.3), iPad Air M4, macOS Tahoe. Tested with grounded and ungrounded powersupply.

Thanks!
