Does everything I need it to, very capably
Nektar wasn't a brand I was aware of until researching controllers, but I was impressed by the feature set, reviews, and price point of the LX61+. I've been very impressed and recommended it to my cousin - he's bought one and is also pleased.
The keys respond just as I'd expect a synth-type action to do - that may not be to everyone's taste, but it's just a question of what you're looking for.
I don't find the drum pads to be as expressive and responsive as I'd like them to be, so if that's the primary function for you I'd probably look elsewhere. They're fine, just not great (with the caveat that I'm not the world's best pad-drummer).
Once I'd realised that the driver (which comes with the unit) has to be installed for full integration, the LX61+ plays very well with Cubase, and the pots are easily assigned and responsive.
In short, this has been a great success - does exactly what I needed a controller to do, and does it reliably and competently. Highly recommend.

A perfect upgrade from the 20 key I used to play.
This Keyboard is everything I needed in a keyboard. Plenty of keys and pads to get what I needed. There's Plenty of features that I honestly don't know how to use yet, but the easy playability and layout will aide me once I get around to reading the manual.
I admittedly have little experience or knowledge in MIDI Keyboards so maybe this statement is from a place of ignorance but I don't see myself "Upgrading" from this Keyboard anytime soon.

A wonderful inexpensive midi controller
the LX61+ feels great to operate. Its many features are a blessing for the price and the manual is written plain and simple and is easy to understands. It interfaces without issues with Win10, MacOS and iOS and has not given me any problems.
The handling of the keys is absolutely good and I did not have the feeling that there was any difference in the individual keys, neither in touch nor sensitivity.
The overall feel of the device is obviously not premium and while setting it up or carrying it around it even feels a bit flimsy. Which is not a problem in the end as it feels absolutely good while playing it.
For the price it seems there is no better option.

Not a hardcore MIDI controller user, but I've used it with Pro Tools for a while and had no problems at all. The keyboard and pads feel nice. The faders seem a little bit cheap and I was not using them very much but when I did, I didn't have any issues with them. It's quite light and compact for its number of keys and other features. Very nice keyboard.

Integrates perfectly
My second midi controller and this is brilliant. It is nice and light but sturdy with all moving parts nice to the touch. But more importantly it integrates well with my DAW Studio 1 perfectly. Once you've downloaded the respective driver and restarted your DAW your good to go, drum/scene pads, mixer slider controls, transport controls and vST controls all run smoothly. Nice feel on the keys too, highly recommended.

Good materials and product
I work with Logic X and this keyboard has plenty of functions to work faster. The only thing could be a bit better would be the faders. The rest, really top machine!

Very nice controller for the price!!!
I just got it and so far it exceeded my expectations, the LX61+ is well integrated in my case in Logic Pro X, but I'm sure is the same for every mainstream Daw.
Pros : The build quality is good and everything works great plus it has a lot of features to control your daw and of course the price
Cons : I wish they would have mapped 3rd party instruments as well like Massive , Serum etc not only Logics own instruments ,but you can do that manually
Overall for the price is a very good controller I highly recommend it !!!!
