It boasts a vibrant 320x240 color TFT display, 3 XY joystick controllers for dynamic real-time control, and customizable velocity curves for personalized responsiveness. Designed for seamless integration with DAWs via USB, it also supports Studio Logic’s magnetic mounting accessories, making it an ideal choice for both studio production and live performance. ## Description The SL88 Studio is the perfect extension of the SL CONTROLLERS line, providing the perfect combination of lightness and power. The user interface is perfect for quick navigation and setup, and also gives you excellent in-depth control. The SL88 Studio adopts the latest hammer action key bed technology from FATAR, giving the best piano touch feeling. TP/100LR is remarkably lighter than any other. Each of the keys provides 3 contacts for superior performance, and the weighted touch guarantees a fluent and authentic feel. With its compact profile, the SL88 Studio is an extremely portable professional controller. Thanks to a perfect integration with the TP/100LR keyboard, it weighs in at a mere 30 pounds. The SL88 Studio is stage and studio ready with a rugged full metal casing. Sculptured end-caps, made of a highly resistant synthetic material, help shield the key bed perfectly and provide a safe grip when handling and transporting. Studio logic is synonymous with high quality MIDI controllers and ground breaking digital pianos, organs, and pedals. Review: Solid key action, quality build - First, I grew up playing heavy action grand piano (which I am still playing 60 years later). The key bed has an action on the heavy side and I like it. This should not be confused with sensitivity, however. The keyboard has a great sensitivity and the heavier action makes it easier to more consistently play soft and quiet passages. In another perspective, playing fast passages is actually quite easy and here the heavier action facilitates my finger control, allowing me to be more expressive and not overplaying my phrasing (in this case I was playing Beethoven, Bach, and Mozart passages when I first set the keyboard up). If you are used to playing a real acoustic piano, you will probably be comfortable with the key bed on this rig. On a side note, this keyboard has a solid metal casing and should be set on a solid mounting or table. The good news is that, when set up this way, you can play as aggressively as you want, or as gently, as well. Moving past the key action, which is the first thing you encounter with any keyboard, the controller aspect of this rig is simple, clean, but highly functional. The center color TFT/LED display is controlled with an encoder knob that has push down selection action, plus three menu level control buttons. With this, you can set several keyboard options and projects such as dividing the keyboard in up to 4 zones of play. This can interface with your DAW (Logic Pro here). Through the USB interface into your computer, you can also modify keyboard parameters such as velocity, sensitivity, et al, using the StudioLogic SL Editor. I like the simple yet effective control interface. It is easy to use and with a little practice you can have a tremendous range of presets and control capabilities that you can access quickly with a couple of knob twists and button pushes. I can see this utility for live performance, but it also makes sense for studio production if you are wanting to move efficiently between standard presets. I like these controls. I am honestly ambivalent about the joysticks compared to jog wheels (the SL88 Studio uses joysticks) for expressions, gliss, etc. I like either one and the SL88 joysticks are just fine and easy to use. If you are wanting a good 88 key controller with a solid piano action and efficient menu control, this is a very good proposition. The price is even more attractive given its quality and it definitely punches above its weight.

Velocity goes from 0 to 127. Not sure which VSTs have 12 levels only. **Q: Dimentions. What is the actual length, width and height of the keyboard, not including box?** A: The SL88 Studio is 126cm wide, 31cm deep, 12.5cm tall. Remember, too, that there are three levers on the left side of the keyboard that are included in the height measurement. **Q: What is the length of the white keys, and what is the width of an octave on this controller? I want to compare it to the dimensions of piano keys.** A: Hello, This is a full-sized keyboard. The keys are the same size and react just as regular piano keys do as it is a hammer action keyboard.

We have it in stock and ready to ship. - Pixel Pro Audio **Q: I need a lightweight hard case. can i purchase it with you? i plan to buy this keyboard but inmmediatly i must go travel by plane back home. thanks!** A: Hard cases are available but Amazon has one on back order ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid key action, quality build *by D***Y on March 26, 2025* First, I grew up playing heavy action grand piano (which I am still playing 60 years later).
