For learning, I recommend Synthesia, it costs $7 the learning pack. For playing I recommend Sample Tank or Garageband.

periwinkles:I may be mistaken, but I believe the previous post you referred to was speaking of a piano keyboard being drawn, not a QWERTY keyboard. I have the pen, and think the piano is more of a demo/gimmick than anything useful. Sorry.

Glad this helped. FYI, I have posted a photo on the product page. The app on the iPad screen does not show up well (glare!) but it is open to "Pages" - where I was trying out some typing. I too take notes at conferences/meetings and was thinking this keyboard would be excellent for that (either on the iPad or the MacBook Air). For use at an all-day meeting carrying the extra-wide keyboard isn't an issue. Enjoy!

I have found that if you place the opened keyboard on back face in a phone or tablet stand that it is much more stable and prevents it from falling over. Even the cheap plastiic stands will work. I can now even place the keyboard with the stand on my leg, while sitting down, without it falling backwards. I love the keyboard, but am stiil trying to find a work around for when it times out and trying to get it connected to the bluetooth again.

That's what I bought it for. So far have only used sheet music on it so can't answer how much weight it can handle. The depth depends on how your digital piano is sloped with the controls. I would buy it and just see how it fits.

Get the Apple Wireless keyboard. The case is designed for it. You can't use a mouse with an IPad as far as I know, but then there is no reason to use one. You can still just touch the screen to place the cursor, open and close apps, or whatever. It might feel a little awkward to begin with but the adjustment is swift.

the px100 is great as far as keyboard touch goes, and if you are a beginner I'd say it's fine to learn on. I would prefer an upright with good touch, generally yamaha or steinway only, but if you are looking between this keyboard and a crummy upright, I'd go with the keyboard. 3.5mm regular headphone jack X2-13 years as a competitive pianist

This answer is somewhat late but I'd suggest the AirBender Pro. The case is just as sturdy as the Gladius and the additional keyboard makes the iPad much easier and faster to use for writing for extended periods. Even watching the Apple Store employees type on the soft keyboard it's much slower than the physical keyboard on the AirBender Pro.

Google Play has a number of keyboard apps -I think the name of the one I use is 'External Keyboard' - do a search for it. It has very complete remapping capabilities.

No there are not. There are not follow along songs and this is not a training keyboard. It is a piano replacement and the music that comes with it is not for beginners.

The keyboard is magnetic so you can use the iPad either way. I am so glad I decided to buy this!

For this purpose, I use a typical, foldable tripod-like Music Stand, which cost about $12. It is sturdy but is light-weight so that I can move it around. I also use the Music Stand for my iPad3. When tapping on or swiping across the touchscreen with my finger, there is only a slight vibration. But reading books with the Music Stand is no problem and I can get very close to the pages if I point the legs in the proper direction. (On tables, I use a sturdy iron plate holder as a book & iPad3 stand, although I generally prefer to use the Music Stand).

I don't know. I don't have a keyboard for the iPad other than the one on screen.

The software for this keyboard is only for MIDI mapping, not for recording or scoring. It sounds like you are looking for Sibelius or Finale or something like that. This keyboard can be used with those programs, but you will need to buy the software separately.

It will work for iPad, but I don't think your piano teacher will see her hands on the keyboard with this strapped on.

For all you mac people here, i suggest downloading ControllerMate, which i was able to configure to support most of the special keys (sometimes with my own scripts rather than the intended purpose). Its not free, but its worth it to have this sexy keyboard work properly with my mac

I use it in my solo shows, piano and sr-18. I use two pedals, one fill one start/stop. I match up the patterns to my songlist and make note of the bpm on my ipad.
