Reminds me of CME...but nobody is as bad as they are. Not even Creative. Absolutely 0 support. None. Won't help or talk or write to anyone who is using their product. So, I dropped the worthless USB drivers and using the UF8 directly through midi. Somewhat better, now I only have to deal with the fact that C# and D# play with a higher velosity than the rest, although none can ever get to 127 :o Same as everyone else with the same board. Too bad too. Great ideas in that board, built like a tank. But, the company won't even acknowledge the issues. btw, what's the nicest playing stage piano out there? Was playing a Roland RD 700sx the other day and really liked how it plays. Unfortunately, the price is a little steep. Title: Re: Creative labs..having a real bad day..

Now everyone knows they were shafting their customers by deliberately hobbling hardware so that their customers would have to may more for an 'upgrade'.
