I think that whatever the numeric keypad, if you have a MIDI socket, and want to do something with Ubuntu, everything will work very fast. If you have problems, go to linuxmao.org as I did and many people will help you. Really everything is great. I am happy in every way, except for the unforeseen within three weeks of delivery instead of three days but ... the vagaries of life, eh, it does not matter, most importantly, c ' is that everything works!
