can't believe you need an acutal hack to make it work.
the regular driver won't let you?
i use M-Audio Keystation 61es myself. it's simply a controller, looks real simple and elegant. i don't need to go crazy on knob twisting (i got enough other gear to let me do that) MIDI wise, so i like it.
i also like the semi-weighted action. i like the regular weighted feel of piano, but i also like how quickly a non-weighed key jump back (useful for solo's, etc.). so this is happy in-between.
it also fits nicely on my table setup too.
oh yeah, no driver needed, as it's universal.
just some stuff to consider.
