-split Of 4 areas
-function "you play" that creates a vlocit curve fits your touch
-two among pedals
-auto food usb
-diffrents game modes (organ, rhodes piano ...)
-molette pitch and modulation assignable

USE

then touch the level of the last fatar keyboard is very good (I made the classic piano for 15 years), I buy without having the opportunity to test it and I feared a slow keyboard, too much or too amortized heavy, as is often the case with piano numriques this price range (or even more expensive sometimes ..).
this is not the case, the keyboard is ballast keys have a good presence but the speed does not affect. (However, after a few months of use, I sometimes found binding to quickly rpter a note, or for fast trills as if the back n'tait not fast enough)



I have a lot apprci the highlight mode which puts vlocit up and suddenly schement by typing a key and return it bounces a signal SECOND, the keypad is really more ractif allows fast games like organ (though I'm not a connoisseur organist could be confirmed)

The keyboard is not too noisy for my taste, it does not make too much noise "plastoc" and is well Amoti (it does not thump when we play hard ^^) no springs in the mechanical keyboard so no doing doing either.

It does not seem all too lightweight (also c'tait one of my fears) it is not at all gadget's 10kg allow it to be good "farm"

after a period of use I decided to return the keyboard rparation because of the touch interface .. it is not a good accuracy of all and prevents use of diff rent modes .. buttons t have much more reliable ...


NOTICE GLOBAL

I find it more beautiful in real than on picture, just the plastic sides that his damage but hey .. seen all the functionalities, it is quickly forgiven ..

for me it's the keyboard that currently best matches my use (good keyboard and portable).

However, I expect the Repair Tool back to get an idea of ​​the quality of the touch screen ...

I was looking for a controller with a touch approaching the acoustic piano.
Accustomed to a heavy touch on my upright piano, and having as a constraint the noise (Arrival of a baby at home), I sought what continue to play with various modeling softwares on PC: In addition, ideal for recording.

Level connectivity: USB self-power to the keyboard: Nickel!

UTILIZATION

Touch is super nice, a little harder than most other keyboards I've tested: Nord Stage, Nord Piano, Yamaha P95, PX130, etc. ...
However, the mechanism is a bit noisy though: but this is not a real constraint if you play with headphones or a suitable volume.

The manual is OK, for my part, I made my point and setting!
It creates its own response mode, velocity .. I have not dug well on this side, but it looks well thought out to adapt his game to the keyboard

Having acquired a pedal Fatar / Studiologic VFP3/15 I had to make a special setting for that it is properly recognized: I have more in mind, but it is a story of "default open" or "closed default "which is a setting that must be reversed on the sustain.
This would not have happened with VFP3/10 ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 5 months and I'm really happy!
It really is TOP!

What characteristics have motivated your choice?
I was tired of my Axiom 49, touched his soft kind of synth and its 49 key

OVERALL OPINION

How long you use it?
ca is three months in daily use.

Did you tried many other models before buying it?
NUMA white, Akai MPK 88 and M-Audio Oxygen 88
was the first off-budget and two others had not affected me a convenais.

What is so special that you love the most, least?
Pros: Her touch, brushed aluminum finish, the GUI keyboard and screen, function You Play super handy for a velocity curve in a jiffy

The -: The touch buttons can be a bit temperamental, plastic sides, I would have rated the preferré see metal timber, I would have liked a few pots and égualement fader to assign them to my favorite VST

How would you rate the quality / price? With experience, you do again this choice?
certe bought € 685 is a bit expensive but you quickly forget once the keyboard under your fingers, this choice I would do without hesitation.
If I had to choose words to describe it would be pleasant and comfortable

After an hour of tutorial (from a studio 900 of the same brand) can not but welcome the high quality keyboard that offers good resistance (harder than a studio 900). The basic setting for piano touch me now filled so that there exists a "learn-play that creates its own velocity curves playing. It really is incredibly lightweight and can be worn under the shoulder in a bag. The missing mass is one problem, though we hear some noise box springs and static when you play volume normal.c 'was predictable but despite this, the unit generates a feeling of robustness. The gray plastic computer ends are very ugly but almost only, otherwise the look is right and lay-outs more discreet than in previous series. For 700 €, that an investment must for pianists looking for a set-up that does not break your back ...
