M-VAVE SMK-25 Mini MIDI Keyboard Controller
Create melodies, chords, basslines and beats wherever inspiration strikes. The M-VAVE SMK-25 Mini MIDI Keyboard combines a 25-key velocity-sensitive keyboard with essential MIDI controls in a compact, portable design.
It is designed for producers, musicians, songwriters and beginners who want a small MIDI controller without giving up expressive keyboard control.
The SMK-25 connects through USB-C and supports Windows, Mac, iOS and Android devices. Its built-in rechargeable battery also makes it suitable for portable music production.
25 Velocity-Sensitive Mini Keys
The 25 spring-action keys respond to playing velocity, allowing you to control the dynamics of software instruments and virtual synthesizers.
The compact two-octave layout provides enough range for melodies, basslines, chords and basic keyboard parts while keeping the controller small enough for a backpack or laptop setup.
Assignable 360° Control Knob
The built-in rotary encoder can be assigned to MIDI parameters in compatible software.
Use it to control parameters such as:
- Synth filter cutoff
- Reverb
- Delay
- Volume
- Pan
- Plugin parameters
- Other MIDI-assignable controls
This gives you hands-on control without constantly reaching for your computer mouse.
Pitch Bend and Modulation Controls
Dedicated pitch and modulation buttons provide additional expression when playing software synthesizers, sampled instruments and other virtual instruments.
The SMK-25 can therefore be used for more than simply triggering MIDI notes.
USB-C MIDI Connectivity
Connect the SMK-25 to a computer or compatible mobile device using USB-C.
The controller is designed for plug-and-play MIDI operation with compatible music-production software, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced producers.
Rechargeable Battery for Portable Music Production
The built-in 780mAh rechargeable battery allows the keyboard to operate without relying entirely on USB bus power.
This makes the SMK-25 useful for:
- Travel
- Mobile music production
- Songwriting away from the studio
- Bedroom production
- Laptop setups
- Practice sessions
- Live performance setups
Compact MIDI Keyboard for PC, Mac, iPhone & Android
The SMK-25 is designed to work across multiple platforms, including:
- Windows
- macOS
- iOS
- Android
For some mobile devices, an appropriate USB OTG adapter may be required.
Additional Music Production Functions
The controller also includes functions designed to help speed up music creation, including:
- Octave shift
- Transpose
- Chord mode
- Scale mode
- Arpeggiator
These features can be particularly useful when sketching ideas quickly or learning music production.
