1 out of 5 stars No VISTA support   August 16, 2008

Gosh this would be a really cool product -- except that it doesn't work with the Vista operating system and, guess what, Microsoft considers XP to be "end of life"! Come on, Creative, if you are not going to support your current products under the current Windows operating system -- well, that's pretty bad.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome Little Tool   July 1, 2008

Just what it says it is, great little midi keyboard and excellent typing keyboard. Well worth the money.


5 out of 5 stars Great Music Tool !   October 21, 2007

There is sheet music that I wanted, but could not find for sale. So, I needed to transcribe the sheet music myself. As a time saver, I needed a tool for tapping out melodic rhythms for melodies; I have found the Prodikeys Pc-midi a great tool for doing this. Also, it has great software for creating cell phone ring-tones. Of course, this keyboard is not meant to be a full-blown synthesizer/musical keyboard. But if you are a casual music composer (or even a serious one), I highly recommend buying this as a creative tool for composing music and/or transcribing your own sheet music library, and/or cell phone ring-tones.


5 out of 5 stars A great fusion, of MIDI and computer keyboard!   October 21, 2007

Whoever designed this thing should be given a cookie. This is yet another great example of why Create Labs is the leader in computer sound.....

The fusion of keyboard and MIDI is simply genius. By looking at it, you may think it to be alittle to bulky for typing....But your wrong, its alittle different at first but its easy to get used too. The musical part of the keyboard comes with roughly 128 instrments...Which sound really good on my SB 16 PCI...I tried it on my on-board sound card and it did not really work all that great...So if you are going to get this make sure you have a Creative sound card.

This thing rocks!



5 out of 5 stars Type or compose on same keyboard   June 26, 2007

Works great with Finale. Plug and play first time. No setup other than install the CD. Makes keyboard entry a breeze. It has its own program, but I prefer Finale or Sibelius for composition.
