Members Pr3Va1L Posted March 16, 2009 Members Share Posted March 16, 2009 I just got accepted in Pop/Jazz Piano at my local college... I'll most likely need a stage piano/a synth with a piano action. What's a good student keyboard, with pro sounds and action? If I can find the money, I'd love a Nord Stage, but I'm thinking a PC3LE could do the job at half the price (when they come out) if they can just fix the leslie... What do you think?

Members Yoozer Posted March 16, 2009 Members Share Posted March 16, 2009 What's a good student keyboard, with pro sounds and action? Lacking the Key Transpose button it means that you actually learn how to play. I have a Roland FP7 now and I'd still love to have an U3. Perhaps in a decade or so.

And I never used the transpose function Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pogo97 Posted March 16, 2009 Members Share Posted March 16, 2009 Having a Stage will give you instant credibility which, assuming you're a young'un, is a valuable thing. otherwise--preference and budget... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno, what if you wait for the PC3LE, you finally try it in person, and you don't like the sound/action? That's why I hesitate to recommend a specific model. What sounds glorious to one person sounds like crap to someone else (or has a horrible action to that other person). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
