2 Questions as such - Can it be powered without a computer, with a usb plug e.g. - Does it have aftertouch functionality?

Cannot remember about the SUB pwering? It does have touch velocity control not sure if that is the same as aftertouch. However I did send one back as I could not confiure the touch velocity settings, no matter what I did I kept getting latency which was so bad it made the keyboard useless to me! In the end I swapped it for a Keystation 49 (not the same style keys) but a good midi keyboard! hope this helps

How long is the actual keyboard...the product description sizes are the packaging

The dimensions are: 37.6" x 9.6" x 4.5" 95.5 cm x 24.4 cm x 11.4 cm Kind Regards AVC
