Subject:Re: new (cheap) midi controller keyboard for B4 and others

Yes, you should sheck this out. I have the Fatar
predecessor to this model; from the photo it looks
like the dimensions are the same. The well in back is
perfect for a 49-key board. I've put a Studio 49 or an
Alpha Juno 1 there. A 61-key board might be insecure
there cause the outside edges of the back slope a
little, I think. Velcro?
