Pros: -a LOT of space saved on the workspace. -37 keys, which is a lot for a convenient-sized and priced midi keyboard. -the shortcut keys are pretty good and cover basically everything you could need. A little much, even. -there is no appreciable limit of output notes. I tested up to ten notes simultaneously. -the software seems interesting to work with, though not the best stuff in the world. Easy installation and setup. Cons: -the type keyboard itself isn't very ergonomic: the plastic cover over the keys makes typing on the keyboard pretty awkward. Not worth it if you don't use a midi keyboard on an occasional to frequent basis. -the keys of the type keyboard are very low and "flimsy" feeling, exaggerating the first con. I like firm keys. -the keys of the midi keyboard are indeed pretty cheap. Fine for music notation and synth programs. Don't expect to perform with it; it's made for note entry. Speaking of which, for those of you who care, the keys are smaller than piano-size, so be forewarned. -although I had no trouble with it, apparently this product does not work with many operating systems. I use Windows XP and it's fine. Take care. My summary: I'd *suggest* it to someone looking for a midi input device, but I wouldn't necessarily *recommend* it because of the uncomfortable type-keyboard setup. As it is, I'm going to use it and am glad I purchased it for use with music notation projects. Review: Works great, but there's a big but... - I bought this as a space saver. Little did I know it would become a time waster. This keyboard is not supported by Windows XP 64 bit or Vista 64 bit! (There are new drivers which allow you to run this on Vista 32 bit) So after spending days online trying to find 64 bit drivers I surrender. Either I can have a dual boot computer and run my music programs on both operating systems or give the PC Midi away and get a new midi controller...btw, Creative is not going to upgrade the drivers for this product. Their customer service is not helpful at all. ## Features - Standard USB-compatible keyboard - 37 mini-sized music keys with touch-sensitivity - Snap-on color faceplate, Enhanced function key lock, Customizable hotkeys, System control hotkeys - Removable palm rest (Music keys cover) - Music button, Media playback buttons, Volume control wheel ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000E3E888 | | Customer Reviews | 3.2 3.2 out of 5 stars (23) | | Date First Available | January 23, 2007 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 4.55 pounds | | Item model number | 70CF004000010 | | Language | English, French | | Manufacturer | Creative Labs | | Product Dimensions | 24 x 12 x 24 inches | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Creative - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Model Name:** Creative Prodikeys PC-MIDI With Extra Faceplate - **Number of Keys:** 37 - **Special Feature:** Keyboard Controller ## Images ![Creative Labs Prodikeys PC-Midi Keyboard - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/717yo49fctL.jpg) ![Creative Labs Prodikeys PC-Midi Keyboard - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71GGFkkzU-L.jpg) ![Creative Labs Prodikeys PC-Midi Keyboard - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Mw9gh15pL.jpg) ![Creative Labs Prodikeys PC-Midi Keyboard - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81+ga7GfJRL.jpg) ![Creative Labs Prodikeys PC-Midi Keyboard - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81QeK+ghsvL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gets the job done *by P***E on August 17, 2009* Basically all the other reviews are on the money.

No setup other than install the CD. Makes keyboard entry a breeze. It has its own program, but I prefer Finale or Sibelius for composition. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/172136855-creative-labs-prodikeys-pc-midi-keyboard](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/172136855-creative-labs-prodikeys-pc-midi-keyboard) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
