Hi Booby

The action is similar to a Yamaha P120 and responds quickly. The depth of the action is perhaps slightly shallower but the weighting is firm (which I like) and with the 4 different velocity curves I can usually find 2 settings (default and option 3) that suit my technique depending on which instrument I am playing via midi.

Before I bought this I owned a Peavey DPM C8, which in my opinion was the best controller out there and way ahead of it's time (it was an early 90s model and had loads of features.) Sadly they are no longer made. I saw the CME UF8 in the store where I tend to buy all of my gear, did a Czerny finger exercise on it and was very surprised at how quickly it responded and bought 1 within a couple of days, although from a different store as my regular had no stock.

Hope this helps
