Where can I get one of them. I want to use it with my bird here. Are they any good? What' a good price range for them?

I got mine from a computer recycling store for $5. They are just 5-pin DIN keyboards. You can find them for very cheap, if not free and they make it a lot easy to do a lot of editing on the emu once you get used to the shortcuts and etc.

Do you have to set anything up? Or is it plug n play?

You just plug it in. You must make sure that it is plugged in before you turn on the sampler, but there is nothing to set up.

I use a standard PS2 Dell keyboard with a 5-pin adapter I got off Ebay for under ?5. It works fine.
