"Exactly what I needed"

I like this controller. I've heard people complain about the black keys being harder to press which is truie - but only takes about 4-5 hours of play to get used to. Probably after 20 hours or so the keyboard will be "broken in" HID-compliant so no need for drivers. One thing to note is that in order to use the transport buttons you need to add 2 versions of this controller to your DAW. One for the keys and a second one set up as a machine controller. This is true for most midi keyboard controllers with transport buttons. Very happy with my purchase!
I gave it a 3 for sound quality (since it has no sounds), as well as Manufacture Support and Wow factor. Haven't needed support and who "Wow!"s over a no frills controller?
