Can I use a Wireless Computer Keyboard use Midi Controller

One of my subscribers from my Youtube page, DJ ProLilSix writes, "You had commented on the dj sweepstakes that you had a $24 dollar wireless keyboard which is like a midi controller. Could you give me a link to what your talking about?"


Here is my response and a few links to affordable keyboards.

This is similar to the one I have.

Basically, all dj softwares have keyboard mappings, and you can modify them. VDJ is easy to do this with; Traktor is a bit more complicated.

The wireless keyboards have a transmitter that plugs into the computer, and the keyboard will need a AA battery.

Of course, you can always use a wired or connected keyboard as a midi controller. A good way to do this is to map a group of 3 or 4 buttons to the same control in the software.

Just ask if you need mapping help.
