Keyboards for old musicians

After the decision of all the greater key-
boardfactories to come with new instruments
not before 2010 they came with one good mes-
sage. Next year there will be new arrangers
for elder people. They will be 30 cm higher
than the normal ones. With big buttons and
big keys and a large display.
This was told me by a technician.

....And all white keys so you don't have to deal with those confusing black ones!!

The keys will be made from simulated ivory plating over stainless steel to prevent breakage. And, for that realistic effect, leaf springs from Hum-Vee's will be installed beneath each key, thereby requiring sufficient pressure to dent a Model-A Ford fender to depress the key fully. All switches and keypads will be constructed from used NYC manhole covers supported by coil springs from Abrahms Tanks. Obviously, the warrenty period will be extended significantly, and not be limited to any period of more than three days after the player has been deceased.

Oh Yeah!

you will also want the buttons to light up
when pushed. and a defibulator built in.....
....clear......wait a minute... my va76 has
this. i just can't understand this darn
roland manual to use it.

oooo!! oooo!! and a bench with a see-through plastic covering, and pedals with built in slippers, along with the ever popular two-fisted joy stick....

Seems great to me , I think I buy one!

When I mentioned the 32 inch wide Color Screen above. It reminded me of of our twice yearly visit the the 7 day Keyboard Festival on the East Coast. One of the pro players (Hammond) ROD POOLEY. Rod has very limited eye sight to the extent that his nose has to touch the screen on the Hammond to be able to change and see the settings. He certainly would not see the keys or the pedals.....He always states he would like a 32 inch screen...HA!!!....but what a great player.
