  1. Played the MODX8 today and compared its action to the others. Sweet keybed, light and silent, ideal for piano as well as synth patches. Also compared it to the Kronos (88) and preferred the former to the latter (being less light at play). The other actions are somewhat flimsy, but the boards are light. The MODX8 feels very sturdy.
  2. wasnt me who posted any pic :idk True. I meant Sven Golly :cofee:
  3. I picked the MODX8 because of the lighter GHS action, the ample space for a laptop (thanks again for that photo, Mogut) and the fact that the European price difference between the MODX7 and MODX8 is much less than in the US
  4. The price difference between MODX6 and MODX8 seems much higher in the US and Australia than in Europe and the UK.
  5. Looking at MODX prices in comparison to MOXF (at launch): MOXF6 $1499 list $1199 street MOXF8 $1999 list $1699 street MODX6 $1649 list $1299 street MODX8 $2399 list $1899 street
  6. IIRC the piano libraries in the Nord Piano weigh 1 GB all together. This would be less than the CFX grand in the MODX. Even the Bösendorfer weighs almost half a gig.
  7. @ Sven Golly: thanks for that photo, I guess a MacBook will be a better fit. @ AnotherScott: Im hoping Ill even prefer the MODX8 action to the Montage 8, at least from a synth players perspective.
  8. Could you please tell us some more about the perceived keybed quality of the MODX8 ? I read over at Gearslutz that its right up there with the Montage 8 keys quality. Also, do you think a 15 laptop (MacBook Pro) could easily rest on the right?
  9. Any more keybed comparisons between the MOXF8 and the MODX8? And did the MOXF8 stand the test of time?
  10. Still wondering whether the lack of a Pure Analog Circuit (PAC) will show.
  11. Read somewhere that Motif aftertouch wasnt very well implemented. Maybe were better off without.
  12. Oh yes, thats the best sampled Steinway I have. And apparently well get an update with half-pedaling quite soon. I also love those mic choices, allowing you to pick different sounds as you go along. Not as many sound editing possibilities as the Bechstein Digital, but man, its a fine Steinway.
  13. I did and I love it. Bechstein sound, immaculate. Great to have a real big name piano company support their own digital emu. Two versions in one, large and small. Lots of sound tweaking too. I really love this one.
  14. Thanks! Could someone tell me what that rowing handle is for? Maybe we should call it a GrandStand
