Physis Piano K5 EX controller arrived this week. i have to say it's a great keyboard with some defects that, in the other hand, have most of the keyboards i tried. The color display is very clear and vivid. The EX Physis piano sounds are really organic when you play it. You feel different things with a sampled based piano. Sure they would have to improve the dynamics on the hi register notes, the overall harmonics and different mic placement to choose too... and to give you a computer editor option to tweek the sounds, like the other Physis. Editing is the main reason to buy a modeled piano, why they don't make the editor available for the EX? Rhodes are fantastic in the mid and low zone, lifeless on the upper keys (i had to give bite with the amp and eq). My 73 sounded more agressive on the hi keys. On the Physis, Lo keys sounds very expressive, the bark is a little synthetic but i like it a lot.😀 Icould't found a clav WHA preset...( yeah, i can program it ) The sound cuts when you change presets😡 The keyboard touch is great but you can't retrigger a key from a pressed key, three sensor would be mandatory on a 1800 controller. Aftertouch is a plus. Computer editor would help you a lot to configure the banks,CCs and Performances, and sample pads would be welcome. Anyway it seems a great keyboard, HX3 is coming next week and i'll review the sliders and knobs deeply. I'm supporting this brave idea buying it, i hope they improve the use with the editor and the overall sound and note by note editing. Juanjo

I would end buying the controller but now the budget is limiting me to the piano and the module.In the other hand , the mp7 comes with four CC assignable knobs to control midi devices to start to control the HX3.

Hello , im thinking on buy a hx3 for a brand new MP7 piano i would get too. I want to program the unit to get some of the most used drawbars setting and to recall by a program change comand, is it possible on the HX3? Other option is to get a ventilator for the mp7 organ sounds but im not sure of the clonewheels tech of the piano.
