Why the dislikes? I've played with it in my nearest musicstore. And for this price, it's a good thing that also plays very good. Mention that a regular Midi Keyboard ( without faders,pots etc. ) almost costs as much as this thing. So... Buy a nice midi-keyboard ( With 61 keys!!! ) and get the sounds for free. So don't be too hard on this piece of equipment.

I think that the most interesting feature of this keyboard/controller is it's wireless capability. Looks like the video is a little short for that matter. Although very informative. Thanks

This keyboard have the sampling engine... why not can upload samples.... because then we have an a Emu V .for this low price :)

i wonder if there is some lag when u play the keys on the wireless capability !?

Schmidt is a pretty cool guy.

@MelinaMagicPants Totally agreed. This isnt exacly a synth either and I think most people fail to realize it. Its an option for those who want a nice quality midi controller, some ok sounds without spending over 500 €.

@PIMPZproduction Weird, because Guitar Center & Musiciansfriend sell it. (the long and short one)

Why are people complaining about the sounds being "plastic" or "unreal". First of all, it's an electronic keyboard; if you want something that sounds like a piano, buy a piano. Secondly, it's a MIDI keyboard isn't it? With aftertouch! So doesn't that mean you can connect it to a computer & put in your own sounds?.. I'm looking for a good MIDI keyboard for a decent price & I'm considering this one. If someone could give me a good reason why not to buy it, please do tell because I'd like to know.

I wouldn't knock this keyboard just yet. I haven't yet seen one review on this keyboard that really shows it off. I will upload a video of my Longboard by the end of the week.
