On my return to the music scene I needed a keyboard that would keep up with the amount of playing that I'd do on it. I'd had an evolution in the past, (MK149)which was looking a feeling a bit worse for wear...So I looked at various makes and models and stumbled across the eKeys 49...
For what I use it for, the keyboard is perfect, frees up my midi ports as it connects via USB, got more controls than I actually need or will ever use, was as simple as 'Connect and Go'...Plug and play at its best. No complaints from me at all...The keys are nicely weighted, the wife likes it because the colour matches everything else...Women eh...and the respose is great..
Congrats on a cool keyboard at a really good price.
Works great on Linux

Great keyboard at an excellent price. Unweighted keys perfect for organ or keyboard players.
Works great on Linux using JACK or ALSA and related software (eg. Rosegarden).

Just bought the Evolution Ekeys 49, As I have signed up on a sequencing and sampling course using Reason, I thought I better get a controller for home use this will get me into my dream of creating music. Though I wish I had Reason as we do use it on our course.
The 8th wonder of the world!

Are you and your family ready to add music to your life? eKeys 49 is a compact 49-note music keyboard that plugs right into the USB port of your PC or Mac to work with today’s most popular music software. The included Picture Board, Music Teacher and Sound Studio II VST software are great for learning and making music regardless of your age or experience. Class compliancy with Windows XP and Mac OS X means that you can just plug eKeys 49 into your computer and start making music without even installing any drivers. And while easy to use, the 49-note keyboard with full-sized keys provides the authentic feel of a professional keyboard. The joy and fun of making music doesn’t get any easier than this.
My conclusion is that its only 60 quid and its a great piece of equipment to have around!

Part 3: Section 1: MIDI controllers
Long live software instruments! Gone are the days when you needed a stack of keyboards to create tunes, as everything can now be done inside your computer at the click of a mouse. However, do you really want to be playing all of that software with a mouse? Wouldn’t you rather be doing it all with a proper piano type keyboard? Eh? So doesn’t that mean a return to piles of keyboard again, the very thing that software replaced? No! All you need is one keyboard to control every soft instrument you own! So you’d better make sure it’s a good one, right? Yes, and fortunately, or unfortunately depending on your viewpoint, there are loads of different sorts to choose from so we will discuss all of them here. And if you already own a keyboard but need extra control, don’t worry, because in Section 2 we’ll be looking at some keyboardless controllers that will enhance your desktop music making no end…
