Hello, i just got a keyboard, infact its so new i just got it about 2 hours ago.
I'm rick and i'm from the uk but i live in cyprus having dumped the cold and rain for hot and insane.
I play rock guitar and have done for some years, I bought a keyboard to use with cakewalk sonar and addictive drums in order to make drum tracks for my band, but 2 or 3 hours in and i kinda like the whole keyboard thing.
So off i went though google looking for a keyboard forum and i found this place.
I also run a guitar forum with about 2000 members so i know the knowledge that can be grabbed from forums is vast and is generally very helpful to learning.
I'm under no illusion about the depth of learning i will have to undertake to get a grasp of this thing, but at least i have a grasp of scales and my theory is pretty good (guitar wise) so hopefully it'll help with this I know how chords work and such.
I bought a dumb midi/usb keyboard like i say to trigger midi soft dynths in sonar its an emu x board 49.
Guitar wise i'm a total gearhead owning 12 guitars and plenty of other stuff, so it'll be no surprise that if i end up enjoying my keyboard trip i'll end up with a dozen of those as well.
Anyway i'm off for a look around.
