The Studiologic SL-88 Studio Controller Keyboard is a complete control solution for aiding in music recording and production through a DAW. The keyboard itself is the TP/100LR Premium Hammer Action, the latest keybed technology from FATAR, giving an incredible piano touch and feel. Each key features the Triple Switch Detection system and Aftertouch to further enhance the playing experience. Studiologic’s SL Editor (downloadable from the Studiologic website) also allows 6 editable user velocity curves, and the three key touch stages are programmable.
The controller has 3 programmable X/Y sticks (Stick 1 is spring loaded, Stick 2 is spring loaded on the X axis and Stick 3 is spring free) and 3 programmable function buttons, alongside a rotating encoder to navigate the options and menus on the LCD-TFT 320x240 colour graphic display.
The downloadable SL Editor works in complete synchronisation with the SL OS installed into the controller, allowing access to a vast number of configurable variables. The SL-88 has 250 Programs, 12 Program groups, 4 Programmable Zones and 2 separately assignable MIDI ports.
The main features of the Studiologic SL-88 Studio Controller Keyboard include:
Studiologic SL-88 StudioBought to use in a live rig, chosen due to small size, light weight, but still solid construction.
Keybed is fine, depends what you are uses to. It's quite fast, not too light, a little spongy, but as good as any other general fake piano action. I prefer the Kawai real wood key action, but it weighs a tonne and I decided to get this and save my back.
Great for it's intended purpose.
It is robust and well made. The hammer action is as described, like a piano. The keys are well shaped and not slipper like some controllers.
I am hoping that the LCD does not give problems.
The only caveat is beware of the velocity setting. In order to get a Rhodes type growl the velocity must be set at + 30%. This is an individual preference and took some figuring out. Can be achieved in the Editor.
The midi implementation has an issue which I am checking out. My pitch Bend reacts like a volume control sometimes. Left dark and Bassey. Right bright and crisp.
Overall excellent and the delivery was prompt. Please just keep the client up to-date with delivery progress.
Large but functional hammer action keyboard. Cheaper and lighter than Grand version but still provides a great action experience. Some functions of organizing presets cannot be done via editor, but it can be done via keyboard only (cloning and deleting). Also, it transmit some MIDI messages then you switch presets, what sometimes may be unacceptable (and seems what you cannot turn off it).
