Having both a Tyros and Motif 8.....the Tyros to me has as good a feel as any other synth weighted keys. That being said, I use the Mo now to control it with weighted piano and do not think I would ever go back to synth action. For myself and style of play I get far more control from the weighted action.

The compromise I think is what my Andromeda had which was a semi weighted action and don't know why that is not an option on all boards....it had probably the best overall key feel of any board I've owned. It was for me just perfect, enough resistence for expressiveness, but not so much it gave carpal tunnel.

So now here's a thought......why hasn't one of these guys invented an adjustable action set of keys? I'm thinking it couldn't be that difficult....turn the screw and it tightens or loosens the entire action.....what an outstanding idea Terry.
