Description | It looks so easy to use that you just might miss how powerful and musically useful this keyboard is for live playing. For starters, the feel of the waterfall keys and drawbars is just right. And having 76 keys and a per-patch programmable split point means that you really can play multiple parts on a single keyboard without feeling "handcuffed". And it's so easy to add an extra MIDI keyboard and pedals to create the full beast.
All of the B-3 qualities you love are represented here with the ability to adjust and save them for each patch: Key Click On/Off, Leakage, Upper/Lower Rotary Volumes, Rise/Fall Times, Slow/Fast Speeds, Mic Spread/Distance, Cabinet/Amp Types, Distortion Types/Amounts, Chorus/Vibrato, Reverb Types/Depths, as well as Perc Loud/Soft, Fast/Slow, 2nd/3rd, and even Recharge Times and Hi-Bar Levels. All of these choices let you nail the famous drawbar sounds from every genre and recording era.
Then add Grand Pianos from the legendary RD-700 with true 88-note stereo multi-samples along with hundreds of Electric Pianos, Strings, Orch, Brass, Winds, Vocals, Synth Pads and Leads, Guitars, Basses, Drum Kits, and FX from the Fantom series and you've got a powerhouse of sounds ready as fast as you can press buttons and pull drawbars.
And finally, the ability to play back WAV, AIFF, MP3, Rhythm Patterns, and MIDI Files means that you can have an incredible-sounding backup band with as many studio-quality songs as you want. Get down with your bad self! |
