I ----- Original Message ----- From: Andrew and Rebeca Anderson To: Pianotech List Sent: Tuesday, April 29, 2008 6:49 PM Subject: Re: sort of OT: digital piano question I've found that the Roland with "after-touch" has piano-like response and sensitivity that leaves Yamaha in the dust. Price is similar. RD-700GX: Digital Stage Piano. This model features Roland's copy of the real piano's escapement (after-touch) feel. These Epianos are capable of nuances and subtle shading that others lacking this feature cannot match. The key-weight is still too low for my taste but that seems to be the fare for the course. http://www.rolandus.com/products/productdetails.aspx?ObjectId=923&ParentId=87 http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Roland-RD700GX-DIGITAL-PIANO?sku=703119 Priced here at $2395.00 Good Luck Andrew At 11:56 AM 4/29/2008, you wrote: List, I'm thinking of purchasing a digital piano/synthesizer. Gasp! The horrors ... I know. :-) But I think it would be fun to play around with one. And I'm not at all abandoning acoustic pianos -- they are the best! Anyway, thought there might be a few folks here who could share their experiences with a keyboard. Does anyone on the list have a good recommendation? I'm wanting a weighted action. Looking at a Yamaha S90 ES -- anyone familiar with those? Price range < $2500.00 preferably. Or, any thoughts about the Moog Piano Bar thing? That would be another option, I suppose. I'd ultimately like to connect a keyboard/MIDI device to my Mac to dink around in GarageBand.
