Keyboard a little stiff but we'll see if I can adjust. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by M***A on Reviewed in India on 28 March 2018* excellent ### ⭐ Incubo assoluto - Absolute nightmare *by E***A on Reviewed in Italy on 19 December 2017* 1) Inside the box there is no ac adapter2) There is no disc for VIP software3) If you want Vip software it you can only download from their website, but their server is slow and unstable, so everytime i try to download the file, it just fails.4) I contacted the support and i asked if i could get the file from an alternative source, but they just told me they cannot (which is just their policy, not a technical limit).So there is ZERO customer careStay away from this crappy company. They are a total scam.1) il pacco arriva senza l'adattatore2) non c e' cd con il VIP software3) Il software si deve scaricare dal loro sito, ma il loro server e' instabile e lento e il file cade continuamente4) Ho contattato il supporto, chiedendo se avessi potuto scaricare il file da altra fonte, ma mi hanno detto che non e' possibile, (la ragione e' solo burocratica, tecnicamente non ci sarebbe stato alcun problema)La loro assistenza tecnica e' assolutamente ZERO.State lontani da questa azienda ridicola. Sono ai limiti della truffa. --- ## 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.ae/products/49375556-akai-advance61-advance-61-ucb-midi-keyboard-controller](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/49375556-akai-advance61-advance-61-ucb-midi-keyboard-controller) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-06-12*
