Is there any provision for sustain with this keyboard? Update - thanks to all for the answers. There are some smaller keyboards that have a sustain button, at least, so this (and the 61) seem lacking. I appreciate the responses.

No, there is no input for a sustain pedal, unfortunately. Overall, I like the keyboard - very nice feel for something so small. Much better than the m-audio version.

As far as I know, this keyboard has been discontinued, so u might want to find another, current keyboard.

probably off the sharkoon website or just get some third party keys. BTW, is this keyboard good? i just wanted to know because im starting to build my pc and i want a cheap, but good keyboard. Will this basically fit the standard needs of a regular keyboard and a keyboard to play some light games like minecraft, steam games, ect.? thanks i would love to know.

I've never had any issues with the keyboard, except for fat fingering. I use it at my HOA meetings, church, etc.

It's ridiculous that they didn't include it with the keyboard, I know! I was shocked too. You have to buy it separately.I HIGHLY recommend it too-otherwise you'll be eating up batteries like crazy (especially if you forget to switch it off).

Has anyone had problems with the keyboard "sticking" on the last letter you typed? (Like thisssssssss)? It also will not do an upper case I--this just started today. Am wondering if I need to return this.

I dont know the answer to that question. I have been using the keyboard for only 1 month. It seems that the letters are printed on the keys in a traditional way, like other keyboards. Just dont know how long they will last yet. Talk to me in a year.

Sorry haven't encountered that problem yet. I have used this keyboard for a while and havent encounted that problem yet. I didnt find any directions that may have answered that question either. I'll do some research and get back to you.

I have switched this off from the start as I am always trying to extend the life of things. It is very unfortunate this battery does not last longer. I don't believe it was situation with the battery life/on/off was listed anywhere when these were first available and it should have been. I bought mine as a lightening deal and hopefully the battery lasts for awhile. I may buy one now so I do have a spare when mine does go. I kept my old keyboard just in case and hopefully won't need it.

I'm sorry Jean. I don't know the answer to your question, but I can tell you that it is very slow. I am a hunt n peck typist and even with my slow speed, it would miss letters because it was still sending the previous character. I liked the big, easy to read keys but gave up on it because of it's speed. Haven't had the speed problem with any other keyboards. Good luck.

Yes! i LOVE it. While the onscreen keyboard was OK for short notes, it was way too slow for anything longer. Having this keyboard was one of my favorite upgrade features.

10.9.1 is what I have on my Mac mini. It was pretty much plug and play. It did have, a few questions and promos when I plugged in to the USB port. I was told by others this was a plug and play keyboard . After all the Macally folks are pretty much MAC friendly when it comes to hook up. Try reboot after plugged in. Can you upgrade your OS? I agree that the website is not to helpfully. With that said I really like the feel of this new keyboard.

I think that this is for audio only. If your keyboard does not have a connection for sustain I think that it can't do that function.

I was wondering the same thing. This looks to be a very good keyboard. I may buy it. If I do, I'll be sure to post a review.

I haven't had that issue yet; however, I am finding out that I do not like the "touch" of the keyboard. Rather have my old large Microsoft ergonomic keyboard with the ten key attached, but it became too large for my keyboard tray. In fact the separate ten key pad has stopped working. It might require batteries but have not taken the time to find the battery compartment since I rather use the number keys on my keyboard. One other thing that has happened to me is my keyboard totally stopped working for awhile. Found out it could have been my USB port that went bad. Reinstalled in the software in another port and it is appears to be working fine now. Sorry if this isn't any help to you.

JOHN L: I don't have a definitive answer for you. Haven't tried. Haven't even thought about it. For the record: Didn't care for it. It's chief virtue in my view is its footprint: occupies small real estate on the desktop. Takes a while to get accustomed to the small size. Have switched back to full size keyboard which I find much more to my liking.

My keyboard has been going strong for over a year, works just like new still and I love it. I use my keyboard every day for 8+ hrs, so it is not lack of use that is keeping it in good condition.
