Digital piano advise ?

[Cheez]

Oh forgot to add. To avoid polyphony problems in mono-trimbral instruments, one trick the manufacturers do is to sample the notes short. For a piano note, a sustain note can go on for up to 16 seconds. But manufactuers can cut that down to 3 or 4 seconds - so even if you use the sustain pedal, you will never hit 32 notes unless you have more than 10 fingers (or playing a duet)! Needless to say, shorter sampling affects the reaslism.

32 note polyphonic will it be enuff ?
Multi-timbral dan is a pull factor for mi sigh !

Any reasons you are so honed in to Kurzweil?

The quesions to ask are: 1. What do you want to use your keyboard for, 2. What kind of music will you be playing, 3. What is your budget?

 

[Willfate]

pop music !!

budget can be put aside or ignore ! , avg usage so nid to be so high end model !..~~DEStiny

You haven't answered what you want to use it for. Do you want to use it at home, or perform live? Do you want to use it to play with a band? Do you want it to have sequencing function so you can have backing music? If so, will do you have a notebook to run it or would you rather have it integrated?

 

[Willfate]

mostly use it at home , or bring to chalet to ply ! but not for those perfoming live wif band !
sequencing function like i can ply while running on a background music ?
prefer integrated ! ..~~DESTiny
