I'm assuming macro means program or something. But I'll take a look at them at my local guitar center. Thanks!

Semi-weighted and velocity feel too fake in many cases. But then again, it depends on what you'll be playing. Electronic leads are good with quick taps which work best with no resistance.
I never played piano but want to, so I'll have to think about what kind of keyboard I'd like. But mostly I'll probably use the keyboard for electronic leads and pads.

Thank you both
