I have the MOx8 for two years now, and as much as I can teak I can't take a sound that pleases me on a Yamaha. Really. It pleases the band, the singers... and I don't have money to go for a FA08. If I tell you I already liked the default piano from FA08, do you believe it? I know there's so much more to work on, and instead of working on the touch curve, I worked on the piano sound, and I loved it every single second. I love the sound of Roland's SN piano. I just can't understand why people are so bitchy about this instrument. Ok, It lacks some things, but It haves a lot of pretty good things. I felt more comfortable with the FA08 in a few moments than I ever felt with MOx in two years, and yes, I used to like Yamaha more than I liked Roland. And yes, I have to confess, I didn't knew too much of how to tweak the touch curve because it was not that obvious and I wanted to play two classical pieces, some improvs in pop-rock, and something to sing with.

I did some fast repetition, and not all the notes sounded, but that's ok, I can't see a FA08 for classical music. And about the touch curve I couldn't change it, I could live with that touch curve, although it would be nice chaning for a more heavy touch curve. The piano sound was pleasing. The only I would change is: the size. The instrument is a beast when it comes in terms of size. I doesn't seem to fit in most popular cars arround here on Brazil. MOx is a bunch of crap. Really. Sounds good on a live band context but a bunch of crap in terms of keyboard feel. That shitty action Yammie uses can't make it. At least this keybed from Roland was pleasant to play.

I played the FA08 and I have an MOX8... prefer the action of FA08. Felt like the acoustic grand of the recitals room from the local conservatory. The only thing is... I miss the third sensor. Felt like only 2 sensors... but no problem, don't need a keyboard like FA08 for classical playing.
