Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This keyboard is pretty cute. I formerly had the Akai MPX keyboard, which looks really cool and which has more features, but which I got rid of because its action was so poor. This much less expensive keyboard has better action. When I first plugged it in, the lights came on but it did nothing. I fiddled around with it for a long time, but nothing but lights. I kind of figured it was a BAD USB cable, so I tried another cable from my pile of cables, and immediately the keyboard sprang to life. With a good cable, it just works with Garage Band. Yay! So! Note to the retailer, wholesaler, and manufacturer: PROVIDE ONLY TESTED CABLES. I was about to send this back as a piece of junk, costing everyone a good deal of time and money. You can thank me for spending the time to correct your unacceptable problem. Therefore, one star, for supplying a bad USB cable that has a high chance of frustrating a very large number of customers.
