I learned to play on an organ that had a pretty light touch, so when I went to my Clavinet and the Yamaha CP 25 after that, it took some time to get used to the key feel. I prefer something in the middle, with stiffer action than the PSR series offers, but I do like weighted keys for playing piano / electric piano pieces.

I agree though, that piano action isn't very useful when I want to emulate an organ or a guitar, sax ..etc. The PSR action just isn't responsive enough for me and I tend to stumble a bit on fast solos with it. The Motif Es' is more like the Tyros action, and I'm ok with it.

I haven't done a true side by side with the 2100 vs the Tyros, coming through the same audio system, but I did do it before with the 9000 vs the 740. If I had closed my eyes, and one of you played the same piece on both of those boards, I doubt that I could have identified which one you were playing. They were that close.
