This is a very rare 88 graded hammer key MIDI keyboard with two MIDI in, eight MIDI out ports and two MIDI thru ports. It is a great centre piece for piano feel input whilst simultaneously triggering and controlling the parameters of several other instruments. Comes with power cord.
The item has a few minor scuffs and scratches but is otherwise in great condition and is functioning as intended. The display looks a little old but works as intended. I have barely used it since I haven't had the time to make music and neither the room to do so.
Although this is my first item I am selling on Reverb, I have 100% feedback rating on eBay. My account name is crimsonthatisme
I would prefer to only ship within Canada but if you are international and interested, then I can find out the shipping rates.
If you have any questions and/or concerns, then please do not hesitate to ask.
Here is a review from Audiofanzine:
"I wanted a hammer action midi controller that is built like a tank like the rest of my gear, and the MC-3000, hands down, is the most full featured pro level midi controller available up until now. The MC-3000 features two MIDI ins and EIGHT MIDI out ports, with two MIDI thru ports. It features a built in patch bay to route all of these channels in any way you like. While having this much control does get a bit confusing, it's all in there. Split your keyboard any way you like, trigger different synths with different velocity curves, it's all there.
UTILIZATION
General configuration- easy to figure out. Eight buttons with sliders on the left. Completely assignable, but the base function is an on/off switch for each MIDI out and volume or assignable cc functions for each slider per active channel. Manual- can be sketchy at times. With so much depth into midi functions, things can get confusing and complex setups can make you pull your hair out. All the info is in the manual, but again, with all the sub menus, it can be a real chore to learn how to assign a function. Channel/ patch selection- once you are in the patch edit mode you can assign all your midi channels and patch selections. There is a template of many older synth modules that recall their factory patch settings. I have also undertaken the laborious task of assigning my own patch info for each of my newer modules. General configuration- it's easy enough to get setup with a few basic setups, but to dive deep into this machine can be very complex.
OVERALL OPINION
Most like- the hammer action is as good as any Yamaha or kurzweil high end model digital pianos. I also appreciate the number of connections, making this controller a true midi master keyboard, and is very good for large setups that use multiple modules.... ...If you need piano hammer action, you are not going to find better action in a strict midi controller than this keyboard. While void of some modern features like USB MIDI, it is a machine that will allow you to create extremely complex midi setups. With 8 midi outs and two midi ins, you can transmit up to 128 channels of midi. I purchased this board used and mine was part of a touring fleet for the pit crew on the Mama Mia tour. It was loaded with some really complex setups (I understand they used 5 of these in the pit), setups far more complex than my connection to my DAW, plus 3 modules and an iPad."
