So, it seems to me that they get new product drivers working well enough to film those videos, and then go off and do something else, like in my case, moving from the new Panoramas to the new Impacts.

Seems like this is a problem for all of the various companies making these products. To bad they don't get together more. Like there aren't a TON of options really. It would be nice if the DAW companies worked a little more closely with the hardware companies to make these products actually integrate and work. It's pretty bull that you have to be a computer programmer to make a midi keyboard function as it should out of the box.

lx88 review on youtube by wallid... an orchestrator... he does a great job discussing this keyboard.  Well worth a looksee
The lx series has better integration with sonar than other keyboards... the relevant part of the manual is here.
Panorama does NOT have this integration
I think the lx series is a fantastic buy...
