If you’ve checked out the cost of proper piano lessons you’ll know that the Discover is an absolute steal. Plus you can’t shove a real piano in your laptop bag. It’s perfect for beginners and experienced key-tinklers alike.

Boasting sustain, octave up/down, pitch bend and program select controls, the Discover is compatible with virtually any midi music program out there, so you can plink away to your fingers’ content. It’s like having your very own tutor and multifunctional piano in one. Now, how does Chopsticks go again?

visitor avatar Would this work with FL Studio 9 on PC?
Ross Wilson, Scotland - 3rd October 2011
Firebox says: Hey Ross, as Fruity Loops Studio 9 is a great bit of USB compliant music software, the USB Discovery MIDI Keyboard will work with it!
visitor avatar Will it work with Garage Band on the Mac.
Helen, Eastbourne - 9th June 2011
Firebox says: It will indeed Helen.
visitor avatar I have had this for a while and I really do love it but I'm a little confused. Are we suppose to have the full version of DAccord Keyboard Method Lite? I don't seem to be able to get it past chapter 8?
Eve, London - 8th May 2011
Firebox says: Hi Eve, glad you like it! The included tutorial software does end at Chapter 8, however additional chapters can be purchased from the DAccord company. It's a bit like the moment when a baby bird gets pushed out of the nest... time to fly little piano player!
visitor avatar What does it teach you exactly? I play guitar, have no idea about chords, I reckon this could help. Does it teach full songs? (if so, which ones/how many of them?) Anything like this for guitar as well?
David Taylor, Leeds, UK - 29th April 2011
Firebox says: The included software provides a program of lessons for a beginner, however any MIDI compatible teaching software will work. As for guitar, watch this space.
visitor avatar Does the keyboard recognise and play more than one key at a time like a piano, or can only one key be heard at a time?
Steven Day, United Kingdom - 11th March 2011
Firebox says: Although this depends on the software you are using, generally you will be able to play multiple notes.
visitor avatar I have just received this item as a gift from my sister who purchased the item from this site. On the site it says compatible with both mac and PC but on the box it only says PC. Is there any chance that it wouldn't be compatible with my Mac? I am reluctant to open it without direct confirmation from Firebox. Thanks.
Rob Shaw, Hove - 25th December 2010
Firebox says: The Keyboard is compatible with MAC, but the software is only compatible with PC. If you would like to return it, drop us an e-mail to info@firebox.com
visitor avatar Good keyboard for me; good size and it was worth the price paid.
Jesse, Coventry - 13th December 2010
visitor avatar Hey, I was wondering whether or not you think this could be used a controller in Rock Band 3 for the keyboard?
Sam Rutherford, Newcastle - 24th November 2010
Firebox says: Nope, you'll need the official keyboard for that.
visitor avatar I want to buy this keyboard but I want to know where online can I download the drivers for a MacBook?
Neil McClenaghan, London - 23rd November 2010
Firebox says: No drivers, Neil, just plug-n-play!
visitor avatar Not really a review but a question, can this be used on a laptop too ?
Hayley, Manchester - 27th September 2010
Firebox says: Hayley, absolutely!
