It makes it super easy for you to map the M32 to chords, scales or arpeggios that you may not know how to play yet. This is a relatively new feature for keyboards and basically what it does is appeals to beginners. This to me isn’t a dealbreaker, but it’s definitely something that’s worth mentioning. I am a huge fan of this feature as it allows you to be much more dynamic when playing parts. The one knock on the key department with the M32 is the fact that it doesn’t have aftertouch. Remember, these are meant to be extremely small, so you’re not going to get full-size keys here. The keys feel nice on the M32, but they are compact. If you like portable options, here are some more portable keyboards I recommend. It looks sort of like the A-series, just compact. I think Native Instruments did a good job designing this personally. It is extremely light and it is built for traveling musicians and producers. This is a very portable controller that has a sleek design. All of the major companies have come out with theirs, so it really makes sense for them to answer with their own. To be honest, I’ve kinda been waiting for Native Instruments to drop a mini controller for about a year or so. Artists find themselves working at the most inopportune times and having something small like the M32 is a great idea. We are starting to see more microcontrollers because of the way the music industry is.
