Hi Everyone,

I'm new to the forum, and have been searching for a place like this for some time.

I've recently moved out of my Parents home where we had a lovely acoustic piano, and I'm missing it badly! I need to get myself an electric piano. I've had a look at keyboards from Roland and they seem impressive to me. There are so many of them however, and I'm unsure what would suit my needs.

This is what I need from the piano.

88 Weighted, hammer action keys (feels heavier at the bottom compared to the top keys)

Pedals
Midi output
A *very* realistic piano sound (or if possible multiple piano sounds.

I don't care if it can't play a million different instruments. I simply want something full size, that feels as much like a piano as possible with pedals so I can play as I would normally on an acoustic piano.

I'd like to be able to record music via midi and connect it to my computer too.

Which Piano would you folks recommend? Perhaps this is a silly question to ask, and the only real way for me to know what Piano to get would be to check them out in a roland reseller here in Ireland, but I thought I'd see what people's opinions were anyway.

Regards,

Judderman.
