I know that the Korg is twice the price but what technology must be used to get that "soft landing feel" that the BK-9 has not?

Ian, that is exactly how the JunoStage played...I was told this BK9 had a better action..I guess I will have to test it for myself...


Fran,

I have a Kurzweil K1200 Pro 88 key synth/master keyboard. I bought it untried as it was the first of its type to come into the UK and to far away to travel to try it. It also has a noisy "thump" as each key bottoms.

The above said I also play upright piano and it may be that I am too heavy in touch for "organ type" keys.

Of course to use aftertouch the key must be fully depressed so for me I'm going to keep saving until I can afford the PA-3x or whichever arranger keyboard has the equivalent keybed and arranger functions.

Ian
