BtutyPortable Mini USB 9 Slim-Line Control MIDI Controller Keyboard Controller

The media could not be loaded. This works great from me as a second set of drawbars for my midi Hammond Organ. The midi controllers fader cc’s were 3-11. I had to mess around with it to find that out but for the most part it was simple. @acglass01

I purchased this specifically to control Voice Meter. In order to do this, I needed to change the configuration. This was a mess and wasted many hours of my time trying to get it to work. I ended up cutting my loses and returned it.Getting the software itself was sketchy. My malware protection blocked the download saying it was a risk. I ended up downloading it with my VM so I could scan it before using it. The software itself seems to work fine, but not the driver. They ask you to manually install the driver because it's not a verified driver. This is a risk. I tried doing this in a VM and could not get it to work. The whole process was scary. There are threads all over the internet of people trying to get this controller to program.I contacted the seller and was told to search the internet? Thanks, that's very helpful. I returned it. Once the seller found out that I returned it, they basically told me to kick rocks. Wonderful. I just want them to fix the driver and software so that others do not go down the same time-wasting path that I did.I really liked the hardware but could not get the driver to work. If they ever fix this (it's been years, well documented online) it will be a great option for newer content creators. As of right now, move on, this is not worth hours of your time.

Did exactly what it is supposed to - generates midi messages (control change, system exclusive, program change) when knobs, buttons and sliders are manipulated.

All of the buttons and knobs work. The software, however, was not clear When sending scene data the software gets stuck. Also, the buttons do not work as expected and needed to be programmed through software. The button buttons default to a momentary control type, and need programming to be toggled. This makes it difficult to work with in many scenarios.

I bought this controller to use with MainStage 3 as a live "mixer" for channel strips and effects, and it has been incredible over the last 2 years of use. Very easy to plug in and program, exactly what I needed. There are just a couple programming hiccups I haven't figured out, but for the most part it works great.If you plan on traveling with this product, I'd recommend getting a compatible case—one of my sliders broke because of MY rough handling in an equipment bag. The build on this one is somewhat cheap, but I expected that based on other reviews. This is probably the best you will get for under $100.

Gracias

Things that didn't work:- Mac Application to map the different banks doesn't work. Had to borrow my friend's windows machine to be able to properly map the controller.- After mapping it, I realized that the settings don't save properly for the last 2 banks of faders. The 3rd bank was workable, because at least I was able to map it to a different channel, but the 4th bank seemed to be completely dead for me.It was a rather cheap alternative, compared to other options, which is the only saving grace for this.

Needed a controller for music software and it does the job very well.
