I am not interested in the number of sliders and knobs but I need keys that last and feels good. By the way I plan to use it with the korg m1 legacy plugin which is awesome. It's got all the m1 series sounds including the expansion cards.

I am leaning towards the a500 pro and will checkout the a500 pro in the stores tomorrow
before buying it.


Then Roland is a perfect choice... but quite expensive... and i bet overtime you will learn to love the knobs and sliders on top of that. With softwares midilearn function its easy to set up controlls.


I never understood why Roland stopped making 76 and 88 key versions of this line...
