[B] No - weighted, or not all keys transmit the same number values for velocity. They just feel different. The weight & feel of the keys is simply a preferance. I know players that can get so much more expression out of their UN-weighted keys because of the light feel, and quick action. It's all a matter of taste. Continuous controllers add another element to your playing that can't be done with ten fingers -
Yes, for ME it does make a difference, that's why I wrote ADD!
I control velocity and sustain(footswitch) by playing loud and soft, where the combination of just these two elements give the "expression".
I tried to do the same on unweighted Keys and I never was able to do this! It allways sounds LOUD. And unweighted keys gives me no feeling at all.
I guess this will have to do something with the manner of playing, hence even PCKeyboards never live longer as a couple of years at my officedesk, so I guess it's me.
