Confusing, some might even go as far as disingenuous website practices.
So Donner started their Black Friday Sale, lots of electric pianos and other musical instruments. It appeared that items In the Black Friday Sale could reach a discount by using their Black Friday coupon.
The Medo was one of the items that could be used with this Black Friday coupon.
I ordered the Medo and a few days later Donner Music had cut the price of the Medo by around $50 and the coupon was still active as well.
I ended up buying another to give as a gift but couldn’t help feeling cheated by this random juggling of prices. I used a Black Friday coupon and still lost out it seems.
The instrument itself is wonderful, feels and sounds premium is an absolute joy to play.

I love the gesture-based controls on the MEDO, from tilting to shaking. These add a dynamic layer to music creation, and the response is smooth, allowing intuitive interaction with sounds in fun ways.

Perfect for Beginners and Pros!The MEDO offers accessible music creation features that both beginners and seasoned musicians can appreciate. With gesture control, it adds a unique, interactive experience to the music-making process.

Rich Sound Library!!This device includes tons of presets and modes, from Bass to Drum. As a beginner, I found the Donner Play app very intuitive, with tutorials that helped me explore the huge sound library easily. Amazing for creativity.

Impressive Portability.The MEDO is super lightweight, making it easy to carry around for spontaneous music sessions. It’s fantastic for musicians on the go, with Bluetooth MIDI connectivity that makes setup quick and hassle-free. Highly recommend!

I picked this up for my husband who is a former DJ. He hasn't been able to do mixes for so many years due to arthritis and getting old. I wanted to find something that he "enjoyed" but without all the hand work that he used to do. Here we have a Bluetooth MIDI controller. I ordered this and now that I have this home, I do want to say this is a really neat concept. My husband absolutely is enjoying this new apparatus. Below, I will outline some of the features that led me to choose this over similar ones on the market.
*Design: MIDI Controller, Portable and Compact Size- Built in looper- Synthesizer- IOS- Android and Windows compatible
*50 different presets for Bass, Chord etc.
*128-bar built in recording - this is a great feature for sure
*3 Auto-Quantization modes
*Advanced parameter editing
All in all, this is a really well designed and constructed bluetooth groove box. Based on a good experience, and how much entertaining this has provided my husband- I would recommend this to other consumers. As far as price point, I feel that this is an accurate price justified by performance and usage. Thanks for reading my review. I hope it was informative and useful. :)

It works ok. It's functional on the go and does a good job filling in functionally. The sound quality is a little less than, but for what it is and the quick capabilities, it is a good value for the money.

Very fast delivery, well packaged.
This thing is really awesome, easy to use, great sounds. Perfect.

The device comes in a printed box with an elegant design.
There are 16 illuminated touch buttons. All are very sensitive.
The sound is exaggerated for a small box. It can also be played through headphones. The device can also be used as a Bluetooth receiver.
The device itself has about 50 different sounds that can be infinitely modified.
Installing the app by registering brings a lot of new things. You can compose and arrange your own songs from a huge database of instruments. It sounds great.
The device itself can also be used as a MIDI controller. Ableton Live recognizes this and can assign keys.

I like how intuitive this is. The push putting don’t get in the way of creativity. In fact, the push buttons are very responsive. The sound volume is a lot louder than my current cell phone. Lots of features and ways to create music on a portable synthesizer!!!
Trust you found this review honest and helpful:-)

These works absolutely amazing! I am so happy with the appearance of it and it’s very easy to use the keys work perfect and the sound quality is amazing. You get the value for your money. Go get you one!

This sound synthesizer is really cool. I can just tap, drag, tap for a long time, tap for a short time. I can slide my fingers and produce the sound I like. When I get the tone right, I immediately record it and transfer it to the software on my tablet or PC, which by the way are free to download. I'm still learning to compose and this device came to help me. I recommend it.

Needs chromatic scale, and some way of duplicating loops. I want to create a loop, double it, and then overdub on top.
That way I can create a bass and drum section and do a chord and lead and sample over the top

Arrived a few days ago and the built quality is nice.Pairing with Bluetooth was an issue at first but a factory reset fixed it. The app is good and pairs different sounds quickly. Looping is quite difficult especially when trying to delete one loop and not others but I think that's because I've just started using it.
Overall a good item that is super portable and has lots to explore!

I got this from Kickstarter too, it's a really underestimated piece of kit. It's capable of sketching a quick beat out with a bassline, drums, lead, chord and a sample track. The lead can be manipulated using some downloadable (Mac or pc) software and the sample track is used by taking a sample with the onboard microphone which then is available across all of the keys or by adding sample through the associated app. The app displays each track singularly displaying the notes and each instrument can be changed at any time. It also gives the feature of being able to upload your own samples and songs for other people to play around with and there's a online community where you can add information about your uploads. All in all some awesome features I don't think ever seen before in a single instrument. I love it!
