![]() The Midi cable was missing, the Keyboard wasn't in it's plastic sleeve and the Manual had been folded in half. I liked the Alesis Vi49 for it's keyboards action (Semi Weighted) and the drum pads on the side) I took the package home and the package had already been opened. I went to the Guitar Center store and felt the keys an various keyboard and looked at what the package came with. OK, so I went and purchased a M-Audio Code 49 from Guitar Center. ![]() I have never had any issues with it not working in Sonar. I also like that it has the real MIDI output just in case I need that for my old hardware synths. ![]() I love the size and it fits perfectly on my side table. I found ones like the M Audio in this price range felt like cheap toys. I bought it because I thought it had a nice solid feel to it. Anyhow it replaced my original PC200 which lasted 25 years or so. I can see Roland has therefore washed their hands of Cakewalk. ![]() I see now it comes with Ableton Live 9 Lite. I paid $120 for the Keyboard and Cakewalk gave me the $99 off the price of upgrading to X3 Studio. Another change is mine came with Sonar X1 LE. Not sure if this is something to do with world markets. I find it odd the price seems to have gone up? I paid $120 CAN for mine a few years ago. My Roland A 49 has Windows 10 drivers and still seems happy even after the latest W10 update.
