SPOTLIGHT REVIEW

VERIFIED BUYER

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.

Sound: I love the piano sound- you are in a chamber with a grand piano with headphones- stunning. The electrics are diverse and cool- the Steely Dan sound is right on. Better than the Rhodes itself. Lush and easily ready to add strings or whatever with a quick stab on the layer button. The piano feel is ecstatic. Perfect. This is not an organ instrument though. There are cool church/cathedrals but I was surprised that the Hammond sounds are sparse. I am okay with that as I bought it as mostly a piano. There are way cool synths. The strings are fabulous. You layer the grand with an orchestra and it is as good as it gets. Feature: USB worked immediately- I have Vista 64, no problem. This is the VERY FIRST TIME I have ever experienced playing a computer keyboard with a soft synth with no perceptible latency. So I can play the internal sounds or soft sounds and can not tell the difference. And ZZounds threw in a soft synth package that is full of wonderful sounds and it all works perfectly either way. Better than I expected- and this should have been written when I bought it in December 2008. Things are probably even better now! I do wish the power connection was more robust but it is not a big deal. Ease of Use: Turn it on and play it and you won't care what features or bells and whistles it has because you are playing a fantastic grand piano immediately. Quality: Absolutely solid- not as heavy as people say but I don't care because I worry about keyboard that are flexible, not sure if they will work at the gig! This thing is stiff and has nice built-in handles that are molded in and don't look like handles. The keyboard itself is up to aggressive playing- I have a strong touch and it is holding up well after a year. Value: I was on a budget, and this is not inexpensive, but compared to other brands it is the best deal. I got a steal as it was a "blemished" but the scratch is totally irrelevant. Manufacturer Support: I never needed to call Kurzweil because everything was either straightforward or available on their website- drivers, updates, ets. all very easy and everything just worked! The Wow Factor: This was not my first choice- that would have been $500 more and not really worth it now that I have been playing this. Overall: I will play this until it wears out, and because the USB works so well with soft synths it is infitely expandable.

Sound: Considering the price range, and forgeting about all the useless synth, guitar things, I think the sound set is quite competitive. Especially satisfied by the triple grand and strings presets. Depending upon personal tastes, however, the mids may be considered just a little thin for the piano sound. But I am used to playing huge piano sample libraries so it might not be fair. Feature: Simple is the best. No LCD touch screen, which saves electricity. Nice action on the hammer weighted keys. A little light compared to others but that suits me. Ease of Use: It's not as straight forward as that you can throw the manual to the trash right away. That's mainly because of the simple digit display but you can get used to all the tricks within a couple of intensive hours reading the manual and experimenting. Quality: I nearly throught it's made of solid steel. Super heavy, but I'm quite sure it can endure some abuses. Value: Overall, a reasonably good studio piano/controller for the money. Manufacturer Support: Asked a question yesterday and Kurzweil got it answered today. For those with Windows Vista, mind you that the current version of the USB midi driver is not workable on your OS. Kurzweil said they are working on that. You have to do it the old way, using an external midi interface.
