Mike,

There ain't one at Ebay, I found one at a German flohmarkt The price is EUR 4500 ($5000), yes that is second hand. What bothers me is that nothing is mentioned about the ability to install soundcards. Mayby Cosel can tell us if that is possible.

Cassp,

What where these guys thinking when they designed an F thru F keyboard! When you are used to playing inverted chords in one octave you could use a 3 octave keyboard for both chords and melody. But with the Prodikeys you should either teach yourself to play all your chords in a different way or have less (not enough) keys to play melody. The software that comes with it uses function keys for chords. I actually built in that feature in OMB to be compatible with the Prodikeys. But then also made it possible to use the other PC keys for melody so you don't really need a Prodikeys anymore. Lately I made some adjustments in OMB for accordion players. Maybe it would be able to design a small accordion like instrument where you play melody on keys on one side and chords with buttons on the other side.
