Customer Reviews
 Great MIDI Controller  
by S.F. from Richmond, VA, November 13, 2007
Music Background:  Composer/Musician


“Exactly as advertised -- a good 88-key controller for under $200. There has been some criticism about this product because the keys do not have "piano action", but it is more responsive and has a better feel to me than my FantomX. If you are looking for an 88-key controller and don't need the frills of some of the pricier full-sized boards, you can't go wrong with this one!”
