I recently purchased this awesome keyboard from zZounds music and have to say I am thrilled with it. I've heard some say the action is too heavy and others say it's too light. I've been playing my whole life and even though it may be a tad on the heavy side it plays beautifully. The key feel and sensitivity response are perfect. Out of the box and set up took me just over an hour. I'm using sonar platinum and have had no problems at all. I've yet to really dig into the control features and pads/knobs etc. but all I wanted really was a good quality controller that felt like a real piano. I got that and then some. Thanks again zZounds music for all that you do. Very satisfied.

Musical Background:

Been playing 30+ years. Played professionally for almost 30 years and now I mostly write and record.

Musical Style:

Rock and Pop. Some electronic.
