I heard that for around $40 you can buy the black kit from akai.

is this true? where do I go to do that?

thanks

you can get it from akai or VST but it's not going to be $40. and it's not yet available.

VST is going to sell it for $72 and i think plus shipping. they will have it at the end of this month.

akai will have it about a week sooner. vst is waiting to receive it from akai. akai will have it for roughly the same price, if not, maybe a couple of dollars more.
