«  Good and excellent master piano keyboard »

Published on 11/29/13 at 03:03
This is a very good product I bought there nearly 20 years. Ideal for the stage, it makes a very good master with its 88 keys keyboard (touch heavy) to the programmable sensitivity, connectivity Pedal "switches" (sustain, soft, sostenuto), volume pedal, assignable continuous controller (aftertouch , volume, pan ...), his "fader" programmable (ditto assignable controller), its ability to split, transpose, etc., and complete connectivity with MIDI function "merge" the OUT.

It has 10 sounds (stereo piano, rock piano, Rhodes, DX electric piano, strings, "Clavinova sound", electric bass, acoustic bass, tonewheel organ, vibraphone).

Troubleshoots integrated reverb, but unfortunately mono. The integrated chorus is useful for coloring electric piano. The equalizer is well thought out and can be quite useful to clarify the sound mix (cut bass piano) or color.
Effect settings are saved for each sound.


Integrated amplification 2x 20W is a bit small but is very useful for a quick beef.

UTILIZATION

Touch is very good, very heavy. The manual is clear. The interface is fairly simple, although for those who have read the manual :)

SOUNDS

It makes an excellent piano sound stereo piano is still quite ok despite its age. Limited polyphony (16 notes), which may increase by switching to mono (32 notes) we regret. Unfortunately mono sound samples much lower. The sounds of "Rhodes" and "DX electric piano" are used, and the other sounds are completely anecdotal. The strings may possibly serve "layer" with the piano.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 20 years. It is almost indestructible (in 1995, his flight case was destroyed by the clumsiness porters Royal Air Morocco, without damaging the instrument inside).

Today, I can not find a keyboard with a touch as good ... Price where it is found, it is an excellent deal.
