These keyboards will connect to their chromebooks and allow them to see the music coming across the screen as they are playing. It also will allow them to play around with different sounds and settings on the keyboards to begin to create their own beats and songs that they will perform later in the year.

The midi keyboards are much smaller which makes storing them and keeping them safe much easier.\r\n\r\nMusic technology is the reason we have the music we do.
