Fran, M-Audio kinda scares me anymore. They haven't really had a good track record lately for "reliable" equipment. If the semi-weigthed keys on this unit are the same as those on the M-Audio Keystation 61 ES.., then my interest would be gone.

M-Audio has had a lot of complaints regarding the inconsistent velocity levels with their midi controller, as well as numerous quality control issues.

I'd rather spend my money with a company like Roland/Edirol who has a much better history, and I trust their products.
