Some people take<\/strong><\/em> their music to go, and others make<\/strong><\/em> their music on the go. If you are one of the latter, you\u2019ll want to look at the K-Board by Keith McMillen Instruments<\/a>.\u00a0 The K-Board is a 13\u201d x 3-1\/4\u201d x 1\/2\u201d virtually indestructible USB keyboard.<\/p>\n

K-Board<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The K-Board works with PC, Mac, iOS, Android as well as Linux \u2013 no drivers needed.\u00a0 It connects to your laptop with USB or any tablet that accepts an OTG cable. It should work will all popular software.\u00a0 With no moving parts, it\u2019s ideal for throwing in your laptop case or your backpack.<\/p>\n

The manufacturer claims they\u2019ve run them over with a car and thrown them from the second story, but I haven\u2019t been anywhere near that rough with the one I have. I will say it\u2019s built like a tank, so I believe their stories.<\/p>\n

How does it sound?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, it all depends on the software it\u2019s hooked up to, but it worked with about every software package we threw at it. That said, this video will give you an idea of the sound capabilities it has with its many controls.<\/p>\n
