KMI Qunexus Red Review

Some quick thoughts on the new hardware and the new software functions they added, from someone who has used the original Qunexus since it was released (me).

    Nice vid. You should clean up the old one, though. Takes about twenty minutes with some paper towels, then you'll have four octaves. Or send it to me and I'll do it! (and keep it)

    Very good job! Thank you

    Yeah I love the new firmware update, I still have my old one and it's working great, I cleaned it up a bit and it's not so sticky any more

    Honestly I've tried twice now to clean it with iso and it barely made a dent with mine. Yes it works, but it's like a 2-3 hour project easy to get it as clean as I'd want based on what I did so far. Maybe back in my ramen eating college days, but these days I just don't have the time or patience for that sort of thing. :)

    Weird. You know, the magic in solvents is the fumes rather than the liquid. I have better luck laying the wet towel on an area for a few seconds to let the fumes work before scrubbing. You could also try putting it in a small trashbag with a sheet or two and let it fumigate first. Might slide right off after that. I don't think it can damage the electronics.

    My QuNeo is almost ready for the same treatment, so maybe it will be a different experience. Some batches may hold faster than others. Onward...

    Thank you. Your minimal desk and gear (going by the stuff visible) is admirable.

    I don't like clutter. :)

    Thank you for the 411. For the first time I feel lucky in owning a particular piece of kit, and I’d never would have imagined I’d be this little heap. Now I’ll use it for more than just triggering stuff.

    Hi @Tarekith !
    Thanks for the review. Have you felt difference during play with the origibal qunexus with the v2 firmware ? In terms of sensitivity, consistancy between different keys, etc.
    Do you have to press like mad to play mpe ?
    Thanks !

  • TarekithTarekith

    It feel identical to the original Qunexus to me, which I feel is very sensitive. You can likewise make the MPE as easy or hard to trigger as you want with the configuration app, which lets you definite the pressure sensitivity.

  • jazzmessjazzmess

    Thanks @Tarekith
    Just bought one to try it out.
    My feeling is that for mpe sensitivity is still worlds apart from the sensel morph. I guess i can tune the sensitivity in software, but didnt really like the touch.

  • TarekithTarekith

    Don’t forget you can use Tilt and not just pressure on the Qunexus too.

  • jazzmessjazzmess

    Thanks man !

  • TarekithTarekith

    That's awesome they are releasing just the case now, much cheaper that way to get rid of the sticky mess!

  • aaronpcaaronpc

    Now when is the quneo mpe update ever going to get here? I guess I’ll try to get on the beta again.

    The least they could do I suppose. It couldn’t have been doing the company any favours.

    Nope. The MPE version is still in closed beta. Not really sure what the holdup is, as it's been looking close for about a year.

    @Tarekith Great review! But what I can't find, how to change a midi channel on the fly? (the Keystep can do that by pressing Shift and a key to quickly change the 16 midi channels). Can the QuNexus Red do the same?
