Steve,
Thanks for your reply.  I certainly didn't mean to short change Yamaha.
I had a CP-70 back in the pre-digital days.  The action blew a Rhodes
off the face of the earth!  Yamaha has always been in the forefront of
electronic instrument development.  Somehow, I thought price might be an
object from David's original post.  I haven't priced one lately, but I
bet the GT1 costs a whole lot more than a MIDI retrofit!

Point well taken however.  There are many, many viable options out
there.
