Its really fun to play songs such as Dire

It feels like you're playing an actual keyboard to your favorite songs

so you're all set but even then, make sure you know that this only works with Rock Band 3 and the compatible songs with it, so roughly 60-65 songs use it

After you get accustomed to the very very basic of things you can move on to the learn a song mode (Only available for songs from Harmonix not RBN

The library of keyboard compatible songs is small.

Each song uses only a set number of keys (a span of ten white keys) - as the song starts, you can see which keys you'll be using

My only complaint here being that, in practice mode, you can only slow down to 60%, which is still to fast to properly learn some of the more complex songs like Roundabout

When I first started on guitar or drum, I can hit 90% on easier songs without much problems
