Is the action of the VPC-1 comparable to a YAMAHA grand piano? If it is, the VPC-1 definitely doesn't do it for me. IMO nothing beats Steinway in this very regard, as they are neither too heavy, nor too light. One pro point on the other hand seems still that the piano action is very quiet, referring to the key noise.
So I am still seeking a master keyboard for around 1k USD (maybe with 1.3k USD as absolute maximum), but it should also fit onto a smaller studio desk, just as the VPC-1 seems to be so HUGE!
Monday I will check out the Native Instruments Kontrol S88 MK2 (live). Any experience with this one? I am kinda afraid that it will function maybe just a few years, due to the numerous buttons, faders, and display, while as I would expect it to work for 5-10 years, just like my Clavinova and the Fatar Numa I used to own.
Any ideas?
Best Regards!
