New computer software

[Fenton Murray]

no no Gerald,
We want good piano sounds on keyboards, that's the whole idea. Nobody is trying to get rid of the piano or try to pretend that they are one. It's just really cool to put one in the back of a VW and go out and play anywhere you want. The fact that they can't fool Kent Swafford isn't the point, nobody's trying to fool anybody. Smaller, lighter, better, that's what we want, keep at it Roland, Kurtzweil, Yamaha, Korg, ect.

  You know, it is amazing to me that the keyboard industry would spent so much time and energy trying to sound like a piano when we already have pianos. Ditto all the other sound that they are trying to ape. It looks like, to me, that it would be in their interest to invent new sounds that aren't already in use. Sounds that other instruments can't produce. Get outside of the box and work on something new and useful. Any thoughts?

    Doesn't sound like a piano to this piano tuner.

        Those Steinway demos are much more musical than the disklaviers and the like.
