The features are excellent in theory and practice.

UTILIZATION

This instrument is of great use to me, touch is really exceptional, I found the pleasure of playing like a real good acoustic piano.
The configuration is particularly intuitive handling is pleasant, and the construction looks to me very strong.
The selection of MIDI is not particularly easy, as all MIDI manipulation, the choice as a master keyboard is particularly rich in order expanders, which are also not interfere with internal sounds!
the manual is clear.

SOUNDS

The sounds are more than just suit me, they are mostly complementary and different in texture than I already have (and I have many!).
The sounds are really good, often original sound of a texture (globally) and classical piano sounds Concert Grand Concert Grand and 2 are fabulous.
The layers are very thick, the distinguished Japanese brand, in fact I think the engine sound quite "American", which for me is fine.

OVERALL OPINION

When I tried it, I knew it was the Kawai MP8 who went to replace my Roland RD 500.
I have the last fortnight.
This instrument is monstrous from its qualities (... and his weight!) And by the pleasure of playing it. This is the first among all competitors I feel a joy piano.
Although quite expensive, I think its very good quality / price ratio, especially as to have an acoustic piano of this quality, it takes at least ten thousand euros.
In addition to these qualities of master keyboard, the combination of this superb touch and beautiful piano sounds make this a feast for the musician.
Of course I do it again this choice, since I just bought it!
Again!
