kn6500 only has 61 keys :-( - 02/16/02 10:46 PM

I just love the kn6500 except for that it only has 61 keys. The pr603 has 88 weighted but it is 132lbs. If there was an easy way to transport the pr603 I would buy that one in a blink of an eye. I need to transport it daily but I need at least 76 keys. Any suggestions or ideas. It is going to work out great for the praise and worship group I am starting. Help me Please!!!!!

76 key arrangers include:
Yamaha 9000pro
Ketron SD1
Gem sk760 (sk880 has 88 keys)
Roland VA76

None of these have built in speakers.
(too bad.)

Hi.
A solution might be to "midi it up" to a
"simple" midikeyboard such as those they use
when connect to modules, musicsoftware and
PC's.
Then you can have 88 keys too, all the range
of notes or tones are in the KN ready to use.
I'm looking forward to 76 keys myself, but it
is probably not on the coming KN7000, or?
To buy a arranger keyboard who already have
the amount of keys you need might also be a
solution, as UD suggest in his list?
Hey Technics, where are you! Are you listening?
