Music Radar have just released a list of some of the best high-spec MIDI keyboards available.

It’s not necessarily the case that increasing your spend will get you a larger keyboard – some 61-note controllers cost far less than certain 25-note models – but what you should encounter at higher price points is improved playability, with features such as aftertouch becoming commonplace, and more features.

Here, in no particular order, are 9 of Music Radar’s best rated MIDI controller keyboards:

Korg Taktile – from £199/$300
Nektar Panaroma – from £370/$500
Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S-Series – from £429/$499
Roland A Pro – from £175/$220
Novation SL MkII – from £300/$400
Alesis VI – from £120/$279
Arturia KeyLab – from £269/$349
Keith McMillen Instruments QuNexus – from £149/$200
Akai Advance – from £299/$399
