Kurzweil PC3K7 76 Key Note Production Station

Five stars for on board sounds and the ability to create your own and save. The factory KB3 "organ" programs and the "drawbar" controls rival anything out there for realism. There's tons of Leslie effects options, plus the ability to get inside each setting and adjust a multitude of parameters right down to the ramp up and ramp down speeds of the Leslie's spinning horn and bass cone! And the PC3's strengths in the organ department are just the beginning!Now, to the three stars vs. five: You can save a ton of money buying the previous version of this keyboard that doesn't have a sampler. The power and latitude is the same or similar and for around $1000-$2000 less, you've got most of the sounds and power of the PC3K.

Just love the sounds. Pianos are fine, I sold my clone wheel after getting this baby home, it has 9 drawbars and a killer sound. The clavinets are superb, and the strings awesome. Brass and woodwinds are ok. It has a powerful analog synth engine. Use interface is fine, no touch screen, but what there is works fine. I have previously always used Korgs. I much prefer the kurzweil for gigging, if I was making pop records maybe the korg is better. Build quality is excellent, and these Isemi-weighted keys work for me. Can play fast, smear for organs, but have some resistance for piano. Spot on for EPs.I have owned it for 2 months now, and absolutely no regrets.
