Any inputs as far as sounds(voices), styles, vocal harmonizer ?

Any quirks ?: maybe the way the fill-in works, etc.

I might be able to get a used one for a good deal. Or if anyone here wants to sell it ?

Thanks

The PSR2000 has by far the most user friendly OS of the three kbs. I think the acoustic piano in the X1 sounds TERRIBLE. It was vastly improved on the SD1/XD9 (terrific acoustic grand sample). The GEM WK8 acoustic piano sounds ok,but the GEM WK8-SE has a much better sounding piano. The PSR2000's acoustic piano is not as good as the Yamaha 9000pro but better sounding than the X1's or WK8's. On balance, I still think the PSR2000 is the best choice, but I'm prejudiced, I own one.



I really like the way Yamaha designed their auto 'fill in' feature because you can automatically trigger a fill to play before any & all style variation changes by simply turning on the 'auto fill' button (a physical button with red indicator light which lets you easily see if its on/off). Now, no matter WHICH style variation you switch to, a fill-in will automatically precede the style variation change. If you no longer want a fill to occur, just press the 'auto fill' button to turn it off again. What other system offers the simplicity as well as power/flexibility of this approach? I think the arranger kb competitors should seriously consider adopting Yamaha's method on this.

Ah, the Solton X1! The most beautiful and "almost" perfect keyboard ive ever owned, and the longest period of time ive kept one without changing it!

Although the Piano on the X1 isnt the best, its also not that bad either. Ive heard worse!

I do not get tired of repeating this again and again:

1) The standard piano sound in the X1 is the worst I've heard in top level arrangers.

BUT!...

2) This can easily be overcome by the use of excellent optional acoustic piano samples in soundbanks that can be obtained at Ketron. Try them, and you'll forget how TERRIBLE your Ketron X1 Piano was...

matias, is it possible to download this piano sample from somewhere or would i have to specifically contact my "non existent" Ketron dealer!

Danny: check your email. José.
