Published on 12/06/10 at 05:10It's a keyboard near the top prizes, which do not all sound, not even the simple range GM / GS.
But this is not its original purpose.
I appreciate the stand that sold more than maintain the pedal in place, which really is not a luxury.
UTILIZATION
If I compare to my RD700GX, touch and piano sounds are different.
The keyboard response is however quite correct and quite close to an acoustic.
In "normal" setting the keyboard responds even better to forte and piano of my Roland yet a much greater range.
Use for secondary piano, my purpose in fact is perfect, regardless of selection buttons and useless features.
Level of use headphones / internal / line out, it's a shame that the volume is only controlled by a single potentiometer.
Unable bv example of using the line out without at the same time the internal amplification (except plug headphones)
SOUNDS
Always by weighting the price was really a dynamic response (velocity) very nice , sounds very correct, with a few too many effects sometimes.
It is on the effects I find it a bit more average, but to learn or play the piano is still more than adequate.
The bunch of users in the headphones is very good, and with internal amplification, that is not so bad given the very aspect of the mobile device.
OVERALL OPINION
I've had a few days, bought used at a good price ... but failed.
The left output was not working, including headphone and Line Out.
So I negotiated down to 350 € the keyboard.
More fear than harm side down, just the volume knob HS (or dirty).
It took me all apart anyway, and spend several hours for this, including desoldering, clean, reassemble.
So beware of coast backed occasion too, that the rest of the electronics and precision mechanics, unlike an acoustic.
For this failure, even when asked Korg package from 170 € to repair.
Neon tubes for electronics, so sometimes it's better to turn to the new model at deflated prices and thus benefit from a guarantee rather than to pay 500 €, average price recorded by hand, which I think is really exaggerated.
I had some luck with the failure that did not cost me parts and 350 € plus 3 hours of work, this remains a good deal.
