The Keystep 37 is a brilliant little productivity powerhouse. It’s perfect for electronic musicians, songwriters, and anyone needing a compact MIDI controller with a robust sequencer and solid integration options. While the mini keys take some getting used to, the aftertouch adds a lot of expressive potential.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, the three CV outputs allow you to control multiple external synths or modular gear, offering a lot of flexibility for experimental setups.
