Great controller This keyboard is a great value no matter how you slice it.First of all, it came properly packaged and included a USB cable in its original box.Plugged it in and Logic Pro X recognized it right away.For the money, you can’t beat the feel of the keyboard. If you grew up playing piano then having a keyboard that feels credible, especially if its a full 88 keys, is crucial. I had an 88 Key MAudio keyboard, and while it did the job, it didn’t feel nearly as nice…
For the money this is a great value. I wanted a full sized midi keyboard and this fills the role nicely. Its just for personal playing anduse with a DAW on the PC. The semi-weighted keys feel good and its pressure sensitive. Easy to set up and use its a solid pieceof equipment. Could you use it professionally? I’d say yes but if your actually playing gigs there are better (though moreexpensive) options. If you want/need a full sized midi keyboard this is about as good as it…
