Yeah, I figured as much. I just didn't remember it as being quite so sensitive. BUT, if you like those B3 stutters (and what Jimmy Smith fan doesn't), they are just insanely easy to do on this board (I think the attack on the percussion might be a hair quicker on the C1). In fact, it may be TOO easy, as I seem to be inserting them into every solo.

I have only heard the Nord Stage once (live) but the keyboardist was so good, it was hard to tell if it was his playing or the instrument that had my heart racing. Don't know how the other voices are as he used it as a piano all night. Anyway, it seems to be steadily gaining favor with touring pro's.

Anyway Diki, since you seem to tend to "keep 'um 'till you learn 'um (in depth)", this seems like a great choice as it appears to be a keeper.
