Kawai ES4

See data sheet manufacturer.

UTILIZATION

Very nice touch, makes a very fine report. Close your eyes, and a real piano.
This is the main reason for buying the piano in the second 96 polyphony is like driving a Mercedes SL with a V8 50 km / h, happiness in reserve. And if you push there is the respondent.
A flat for the quality of black keys, a bit cheap and are "click-click" from time to time. A kind of Tamagoshi integrated these Japanese are strong!
The internal amplifier allows for vibration in the fingers, very friendly.
Manual clear configuration to learn the extent it is necessary to key combinations. easy.
Noon, I do not use. Do I miss something QLQ?

SOUNDS

Its a piano to 99%. Perfect for the classic.
To play the composition modern, easy to put the "strings" Zen and other effects.
Amplification incredibly effective.
Sounds very realistic.

OVERALL OPINION

I use since November 06, and I love even more in retrospect. If you want to progress, you will ... If it happened QLQ thing, I would go directly to buy another one.

I tried a few in this price range they were Yamaha have a very good sound, but a touch inconsistent for my taste (this is totally subjective ....)

The look is hell, nice for the half that do not play! And it takes up little space.
This is not the cheapest of digital pianos, but frankly the best quality / price ratio. One of the few cases where you can actually "finger" technological change 100% effective, bravo Kawai!

Here is a keyboard quite striking, The ES-4 gives me satisfaction and I, who already has the MP-5 I confess that I am fulfilled: A keyboard with the same characteristics as acoustic piano, the same range .. .. and in addition a weight of 20.5 kg which is not at all a nuisance and can take it easy .. An option in the panel that attaches directly to the keyboard: that is something very effective and more robust (not a plastic "cheap").
The connectors are located on the side of the device that gives off !!... and gives a great look! Rear view ...

UTILIZATION

The hit is more than happy too ... and for after a four sequencer tracks can have fun recording a bass line and play over a ternary rhythm jazz)
A keyboard highly recommended!
The configuration does not require a big effort to have the handling of functions 1st

SOUNDS

SOUND: it is quite realistic (I have an acoustic piano Yamaha U1) and thanks to an efficient amplification for use in a 50m2 room is sufficient, provided an additional amplification if you wish to use in outdoor (but this is justified because the es-4 wants to be a versatile keyboard).
Combinations allow the rendering excellent especially the sounds of electronic keyboards that bonifient as they are mixing with the sounds "CHOIR / PAD" and then they can easily be measured intake in relation to other: SUPER!

OVERALL OPINION

The keyboard is split, great for an instrument that seems simple enough, but reserve the nice surprise. A range of 100 beats me completely "blown away ".... I do not particularly like that the keyboard arrangers who know everything be unrealistic and music ....( except maybe the Tyros2)
The sounds are not editable and it does not necessarily default because it is not its function, its primary function is to be a piano keyboard touch of realism succeeds (I repeat myself here .....!) Connectivity is complete and this thanks to two headphones and a USB connection ..
Finally an unbeatable value for money through competition ....( former owner of a Yamaha MOTIF 8 hit the ... and the fun is over too ... for, after a four sequencer tracks can be fun recording a bass line and play over a ternary rhythm jazz)
A keyboard highly recommended!
