Does anyone have any informations about this? The only Midi 2.0 controller I can find is a Roland a-88mkII.

When will we be able to use Midi 2.0 on a Sd90?
When will other midi 2.0 controllers be released?
What will be better with 2.0 vs 1.0 ?

I am looking for a new midi controller like Roland A-800 or Novation SLmkIII to use for my SD90. Should I wait until 2.0 is here or is there other midi-controllers you find better then the once I mention?

Today I use SD90 with Genos, but I have understood that a Genos is NOT a midi controller....I still have latency issue when I use launchpad on sd90, and I guess the reason for this is that Genos is not the best keyboard to use with Sd90...

Considering it has taken around 20 years for the V2 spec to be finalised, it will probably be sometime next century before it is included as standard. grin grin

When I had my Ketron SD90 I used a M-Audio 49 key midi controller and it worked just great.
The issue I had with the SD90 was the USB ports did not supply enough power to power a midi controller so I had to use the M-Audio controller power supply.
