I thought I'd try and see which midi controller was the best out of the cheapest ones I could find that included both pads and knobs. Interesting results!!

I'm curious about your decision to test the pads for on such a fluffy table -- I can see the devices wobbling as you press hard. In my experience (with the Akai MPD218) having it on a hard, flat surface has been essential for consistency.

ha interesting. i've never actually felt any noticeable difference going between that surface and one of my not-fluffy desks but i guess every little thing does contribute

Relatedly, are the fluffy desks for acoustics, or is there also an ergonomic benefit?
