Got mine today, somewhat similar to An0nx, it is the silicon is already peeling off the bottom left of the keyboard.
The drum pad seems ok, except for 1 part that doesn't seem to register as reliably as the rest.
Can't get the loop block to do anything yet.
I have had fun playing around with it so far though, the included Melodics game is great for me learning to get some rhythm and touch sense of the pads.
I am going to be keeping it, if the keyboard gets a lot worse, maybe go for a warranty claim.
I'd feel ripped off for $1k, but for half that, I think I will get my value. It's cool just having a keyboard connected that is pretty nice to the touch that I can play while waiting for my computer to load things for 10 seconds here and there.
