If you like opening and closing software, and turning a keyboard one and off to get MIDI to work... this is the keyboard for you. There is a very well known issue with the after touch on ALL Code controllers. M-Audio knows about it, but instead of doing something about it.. they lock out comments on their website and youtube channel. Not only did I return the board, I will never by an M-Audio controller again. No support at all. Not like they used to be

"Mixed Bag"

This is my first piece of M-Audio gear; and my last. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to the build quality on these boards. I was really happy with my first Code 49 board, but the power button didn’t work properly, so I returned it. Now with my second board, the pads are completely different and instead of the rubber pads it originally had, these are some kind of hard plastic, coated in a thin rubber, and two of the faders on the board feel less smooth then all the rest. Do yourself a favor, save your money and go with another board.
