 Need a new keyboard and decided to go with this. I just can't seem to muster the discipline to get much use out of keyboard shortcuts. Hopefully this helps like training wheels. It was designed for X3, I'm guessing not much has changed in keyboard commands? I was able to pick one up for $89.00 refurbished. I could have got a cheaper one that wasn't backlit, but I be stylin' like Mr. Spock now. https://www.editorskeys.com/sonar-x3-backlit-keyboard/ 

 

 
 
Only question. Any notable keyboard command changes from X3 to Splat?

I've also thought of getting that... my brain don't remember shortcuts for sht...
 
Is it a decent keyboard?  I really don't like the chicklets but I'm open...

That looks pretty nice.  I have a keyboard which was made for X1 (which isn't backlit).  I really like being able to see the shortcuts.  I was wondering if any updated keyboards had been made for Sonar.

Nice looking keyboard.  The website shows the standard, non-backlit Sonar keyboard is $39.
 
The description below the photographs indicate the shortcuts are valid for X3, Pro and Platium.

I like the lighting low if I can and I think I might love that keyboard.

I like it, gives off very nice light. Not quite as bright as the picture. Only downside for me is, I have to wear reading glasses to read the text.

Too bad, that's a deal-killer for me. If I wear my reading glasses, the screen is blurry. Guess I'll have to stick with touch-typing.
 
I'm a nut for keyboard shortcuts anyhow, being a dinosaur who started with Cakewalk 1.0 back in ancient times when most computers didn't even have a mouse. What I hate is software that makes you do everything with the mouse. Or worse, that randomly re-arranges the keyboard shortcuts with each major release.
