    Kurzweil PC3XPublished on 03/05/09 at 06:33
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    See above, is more than self-explanatory

    UTILIZATION

    As always on the Kurz, it's not always easy, especially since the screen is small and contains lots of info. Nevertheless the editor greatly facilitates things.

    SOUNDS

    Sounds pretty good, obviously still down compared to a good soft (like Ivory for piano sounds). The "legendary" piano sound starts to date.
    The factory sound banks are obviously not up to par, especially since the release of new generations of Korg example but it is a matter of taste.
    I'm still not convinced by the organ sounds that have any reason to envy them-also a good software, a keyboard or even a Hammond XK3.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Keyboard interesting in itself because not too expensive and supposed to be top quality. Where the problem is that in Belgium, the importer (Dutch) is not at all to the occasion and makes everything particularly painful after-sales service.
    My future-ex Kurz is down since the purchase and hand back and forth with the seller, I could appreciate that the lack of service, except by the manufacturer but is not able do than send me back to the importer, unfortunately.
    So if you are tempted to buy this brand of keyboard, first go to see other brands if nothing similar tempts you, and if so, do not buy in the area of ​​influence the importer, or so good luck if something goes wrong, which is unworthy of such a mark.
    I am so disgusted that I also think selling my K2661.

    88-note keyboard heavy, light! 128-note polyphony

    UTILIZATION

    Well this keyboard is not intended for a novice who is looking for useable sounds in succession, there is more than 1000 sounds, but most are poorly programmed, look for a pattern or korg or was immediately usable sounds in kuzweil is very very average!
    After if we go into the machine, there is a way out of good stuff but it's a good keyboard for programmers and not for single player.
    The manual in french is still not finished !!!!! The OS either, not bad bug, finally still good after 3 years ............

    SOUNDS

    So just in the sounds,
    I was told "you will kurz", well what a disappointment! sounds are not really top the piano even resonance, samples of 80's! organs bof yet so very dear to what seems a kurz but light years away from the keyboard as piano and Rhodes, wulitzer indeed! I laugh the drums in relation to what is done, the bin should already synthe program it ....... sounds are classified matter how ....... ah good may be the strings but more because when you listen to the motif xs in all areas is beyond the kurz!
    Frankly it should stop with kurzweil best in a particular sound, it might be valid in 1990 but today it is a pain and I understand why this brand has almost run!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've made because I was very disappointed, I love the look and strength that I dislike the rest .....

    I will never do it again the choice of kurzweil and advice if you find a good piano with synthesizer, electric'll see the side or keyboard korg (SV1)
    if you find a workstation, see Yamaha (XS8) or M3 (Korg) but avoid PC3X !!!!!
