Spoiler alert, he's touring with 2 midi controllers and a laptop now.

I'm sure he's busy practicing to achieve his goal of playing solos in the style of Jordan Rudess.

I want to play keyboard because, basically, I’m too lazy and cheap to replace the strings of my guitar every other week
So play guitar and just don't change strings. I'm going on a year with the same set on my guitar and I play it about every day. Those rogue bulk strings are pretty tough. Stainless steel frets help too.

You might consider it a risk but it worked out for me twice in a row last year.
Ebay Japan. They are used to shipping internationally and mine got to me in Northern California in about a week from Hiroshima of all places.

Some guys are quite proud of being pounders. I hate letting piano players play my synth action boards because it's very likely the board will be pounded to bits. I'm not surprised hard piano players develop arthritis and repetitive stress injuries. OTOH most syth piano patches have like 3 levels of velocity and aren't going to have much nuance. High resolution midi seems to be not coming out anytime soon.

The Xk5 probably sounds a little better than the others, I'm guessing especially in the percussion. I play the IK MM app for hours everyday and I've not heard any demos of the sk or xk sound that much better for a 4k price. However im sure the sk keybed is better than my roland controller and I'm positive the multi contacts in the xk5 are much better than that.
But if you are not a full time organ player that's all wasted capability in my opinion. I say get a Roland A800pro controller and use b3x and see if you grow into needing more.

In a mix or on a loud stage, would a real tape Mel sound that much better than Streetlytron pro?

Without getting political I don't want someone else deciding for me how extreme is too extreme. I just don't click on material I disagree with and disagreers don't click on mine. That's how it was in the early days of youtube and worldwide groupthink was much less.

Funny how that classic rock has become classical music. If you were to improvise during a beethoven piece you would be out of place. Now everybody wants to cover rock tunes note for note, sound for sound. If I have to hear sterile perfect versions of zep or skynrd tunes I'd rather stay home and listen to oldies 105.5 fm.

Bitchute.
It's mostly movies and fringe conspiracy videos. Not as developed as youtube and it's more tedious to find what you want.

I'd LOVE to do a Derek and the Dominoes tribute on guitar or organ.
There's lots of peripheral stuff to add like some Delaney and early Ringo Starr, George H, You name it.
But yeah, some attention to lights and razzmatazz would be necessary to bring some ladies out and not just dudes in pot leaf Tshirts.

I didn't say anything about offset... I think what you're trying to do is done with the Vibrato parameter I pointed you to.
Check to see if you have latch instead of momentary selected. Idk where that selection is but its gotta be somewhere.

I play in a Clapton tribute. If I ask the BL what he wants me to play - cause I'm the only keys player and there's usually 2 on the record - his response is invariably "Whatever you want." There's little if anything in the keys parts that any song depends on. Signature licks are all on guitar. I do have to play the single note machine-gun piano at the beginning of Pretending, and cover the choir on White Room, but that's really about it.
However, I do go and listen to various live recordings, particularly if it's a song that he did with Dick Sims or Greg Philliganes, or on the tour with Dave Sancious and Billy Preston, cause there's always something I can learn from those cats.
Most non keyboardist know so little about keys that they don't know or want to know about keys parts and just want you to make the sound better so as long as you fill out the sound so it has some extra production value you can really do anything you want. Of course there's always the BL that thinks he knows all about everything and will say no that #11 should be a b13 so you just play the same thing and he says yeah that it....

Ask yourself what would Leon Russell
do? A basic 1345 barrelhouse thing. Master that and RnR piano is all the same.

They need a skeleton locking like Rerun, or maybe 2.

Stock sound on most Rolands. My DS has it. Get some kind of emulator app and borrow a Roland rompler and bobs your uncle.

The Juno DS has a pitch bender (instead of a modulation wheel) It was one reason I purchased it over other synths. The bender only adjusts the pitch by a half or full step. I would like to have it adjust the pitch by an octave or more. Is there an easy way to configure that? I can't figure it out after months of owning the synth.
My first synth was a Juno 106. It had a bender and it had a much greater range. Could do some really interesting stuff on solos with it.
Thanks for any information.
I don't have mine out of the case so I'm only going by memory but I believe it is fully adjustable per patch ( performance) . In fact some of the presets have an octave of change some a minor third and some have other intervals. That global setting is probably an offset.

Just play it with the yellow keys.

Still a huge number of vgc used ones that I bet were barely taken out of the box. I recently got an 800, 500 and 300 all unscratched and flawless as far as I can see. A little caig F5 on the sliders to hopefully prevent wear and ive been jamming since. And all parts are interchangeable, even the motherboard. So if you find one cheep with a broken key you have a parts stash for all the rest. Yeah there are a couple of negatives with the design. The pitch lever issue that doesn't bother me. Also the drawbars in b3x when CCed by the faders top out before the faders do so the last couple of clicks do nothing. Also the auto save to the current midi map without a save? prompt has caused me a bit of misery once or twice. Still the series has the best keybed in the price range.
