Yep - woot changed it, so did I :-)

m-audio makes decent budget equipment - I have their semi-weighted keyboard, it's very good for the price

Nah, be careful about getting this. I have one sitting at the foot of my bed right now. Both my friend and I tried it on our laptops and computers and it doesn't work right on any of them. We keep getting the same distortion sound like really annoying static. It's on and off. If you search the M-Audio forums, this is a common problem, and I haven't found a solution yet. So it's back to writing songs on piano! Besides, from what I see with their Studio program, this is just a novelty keyboard. I can't find out how to get synth sounds which is what I really want.

Thanks for the great description - not.

i'm a professoinal producer, and this makes for a decent bedroom setup. maudio is very solid when you get their higher end stuff.. this cheap stuff will take a beating though. i'd get this for fun, which most of u probably would want it for anyways.

What you're describing has nothing to do with the keyboard; it's your soundcard that's at fault.

Turn down the bit rate. Your sound card can not handle the default rate. We had the same static distortion. Google the and you will see. Now sessions works great, Single core dell 2.6ghz 2gig mem onboard sound. For a budget product the M-Audio stuff can not be beat,

I have always wanted to get into creating beats and music. Would this be a good start? I messed with FL Studio a bit once before but it was discouraging...

Got the Torq Mixlab.

Always wanted to learn to DJ just for fun.

I hope it was worth it.

[planetboom]

anyone else having problems checking out @ woot with these items? its taking me forever. grrrrr...

So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
But you see there’s something that we need to tell you
Anyway
The thing is
What I really mean
You’ll only get one per purchase unless you buy all three

‘Cause Woot’s only selling these
Sep-er-ate-ly
So if you want the whole set you’ll have to be
In it for three
We hope you don’t mind
It’s still a great buy

Same this as the "X-Session Pro" from M-audio. Its actually a nice compact unit with a surprising amount of controllers. If you prefer rotary (i.e. true club mixer) style faders (knobs) let me know - I do conversions. Here is my Numark Total Control which I have been happy with for over 2 years now.

Oh it's $60 per item, so $180 for all three. Not hot at all.
