Wow! Thank you very much Nigel. I was only making a suggestion but of course, I am delighted at your quick response. Not knowing anything at all about organs (the new Pegasus has an upper & lower digital organ on Board) I'll need all the help I can get.

John:
I believe there were a few problems a few years ago when Windows 97 was used, but now the whole keyboard has been revamped, (understand Wersi are now using Windows XP) and from playing it at Pakefield, I liked everything I tried eg. The 76 note piano keyboard with some very interesting pianos on it including the Fender Rhodes. This also doubled as an organ which when split, sounded like a traditional organ of which, there are some interesting variations.

There are some very real sounding voices and styles which can be saved on board thus building up a programme or, direct to the hard drive and/or using a USB stick.

You can make an 'easy' recording and then burn it direct to Wave/MP3 using the on board CD/DVD player/recorder.

It also plays Yamaha styles - which is a bonus for me, as I have quite a few now.

The cost for just the keyboard is �2,250 with 'optional' sub woofer and speaker system (similar to that used by the Yamaha Tyros Keyboards), various pedals etc.

The stand was included if ordered at Pakefield. In addition, I ordered the speaker system and the larger foot pedal, which works like an organ pedal in that you 'kick' one side for change of registrations and the other for fill-ins - total cost to me is �2869.00.

To be honest I also liked the Korg PA3X which is also an excellent keyboard and has lots of 'goodies' on board plus a really 'User Friendly' operating system and I was all set to purchase one, until I tried the Wersi Pegasus which for me, felt right. It seemed to suit my style of playing. Both makes had a 76 note keyboard but as the Korg was almost �2,000 dearer, the cost was the deciding factor in the end.

There is a 4-6 week wait for delivery, so will post later when I've had a chance to explore it more.
