The ONE Keyboard

[vineband]

I need a budget keyboard for my studio. I was curious if any of you have a suggestion?

Here is what i am looking for:

Full 88 Size

Semi-weighted or fully weighted

DECENT built in piano sound for occasional live gigs where i need
a "little" piano... this is why i dont want a usb board

$200-400 Used







I have used the M Audio keyboards but they feel so plastic & people who are used to playing a real piano perform real poorly on it. Obvioulsy i want a Midi Out to go to pro tools to run things like Charlie B3 and Symphonic Orchestra Plugs.... does the "midi out to usb conversion cable" create any problems that you have run into?

Good luck finding anything under 400 bucks that has 88 keys.

I could compromise on that part... i just want something that will be heavy duty. I keep seeing the Studio logic on ebay???? whats the word on those

*And* that has a decent piano sound.

A studiologic is just a controller - it outputs no sound, just midi. I use one to control my synth modules.

Wow... I know where some of my tax return will be spent!

Thanks for the heads up on the brand people!
