Hi, I'm begginer and play the keyboard is hobby for me. I have Yamaha DGX220 as my main keyboard. But this Yamaha is so big. I would like to have a second keyboard. Anything smaller and lighter to my work table to everyday practice.

I'm thinking about Roland A 49 or M-Audio Oxygen 49. Which is better? I don't need a million functions. I want good keys like my Yamaha.

Thanks... vlasta

No experience with the Roland but I can say from experience the Oxygen 49 is a total piece of crap that has latency problems and dropped notes like nobody's business.

I have one hooked up to a laptop for noodling around with and it doesn't work worth a damn unless I turn velocity off and even then notes occasionally get stuck for no good reason.

The Roland might be a good bet and also take a look at Novation and Akai controllers.
