I came to conclusion that it is better to either just leave the midi keyboard controller or leave keyboard and buy Push, but keyboard is more important.

What do you think?

If you should choose to get a first keyboard, don't even fool around with anything less than 4 octaves and pretty normally sized keys.

Those would help in the beginning stage to make it easier and more ergonomic ally comfortable to mess around and learn shit.

Btw, after-touch is a pressure that ...

So how do you think is it better to have 49 keys keyboard or it will be ok to have Push + 25 keys like Axiom MINI or Akai MPK25?

I think a conventional keyboard (with transposition) is much better for switching between related keys (or even keys in general) than Push if you're not in "in-Key" mode.

Is only Naturals available in Push?

Both have pros and cons. For your purposes I would say go with PUSH! With little practice you'll become a much better pushist (hehe), than a keyboardist. Push is laid out very logically.

I think about it not from point of view of easiness. I wanted to find out what will be more useful for music ...

[/img] So I'm looking into editing the .pyc file for Push to customize the color of the drum pads for Drumracks.

I'd like to change the colors of soloed/muted pads. Or make it so that all of the pads change color when a pad is soloed.

Is it everything? I do not use a mod wheel know ) I think it can be replaced with some mini controller with mod wheel and sliders.
