88 Note Music Store Search | MIDI Keyboards | Yamaha Roland Arturia Guitar Center Sam Ash

This is a tour through SIX different music stores, 4 Guitar Centers and 2 Sam Ash stores. In this video we are looking for the BEST 88 Note MIDI Controllers focusing on keyboard action and DAW Control and NOT sounds.
