  1. Yes I’m sure about that. It’s out of stock and I didn’t received it yet. Is it possible to MIDI both keyboards to share the same sustain pedal? thanks in advance
  2. So I went to the music store, tried de Numa X 73, liked much the sounds… but finally ordered a Nord Stage 4 73 HA 🤪
  3. Yamaha CK61 and still deciding between Nord Piano 5 or Studiologic Numa Piano X 73 in the next week 🤨
  4. Yes, sorry for the misunderstanding, my fault. At first I thought to replace the CK with a YC, but now I see I must keep it and use another keyboard with it. IMHO the CK offers very much for the money you pay. If it had 73 keys with the feel of the Nord Piano 5 keybed it will be a killer.
  5. I’m not that much into organ playing… guess the CK will work fine for me. CP/YC 73 keybed was too hard for my playing style. Didn’t liked the Electro 6D keybed but couldn’t try the HP. Will consider the Numa X 73, many thanks for that!
  6. That sounds fine but I loved the sounds from the Nord Piano 5 and its keybed. I was thinking about using the CK on top, for organ, synths and for the analog audio output from the Nord (bottom), so the CK will act as an USB audio interface for the Mac (Logic X). Does it make any sense?
  7. This is my first post in this forum so please bear with me... I have posted this into another forum but didn't find an answer. I have a Yamaha CK61, and I'm absolutely delighted with the interface and sounds, but I need 73 keys because I don't like having to play with the octave up or down button. I also have a Korg C1 Air with weighted keys, so I don't see the need to go for a CK88, CP88, or YC88. Can anyone tell me if the piano sounds on the CP73/YC73 are better than on my CK61? I know the YC73 has FM synthesis, but I'm not a big fan of DX7 sounds either. I've seen some tables with the voice list, which is different among the three models, but I would like to have the opinion from anybody who is able to have both keyboards to tell if there's any significant improvement from YC/CP voices over the CK... Yes I know they share the AWM2 engine, the YC has FM synthesis, but... does it really sound any better? On the other hand, what is the typical product lifecycle for Yamaha CP or YC? I ask because I understand that after releasing the CK series, the CP/YC range might become somewhat lacking, and I assume Yamaha will try to introduce something of higher quality into the market. Does it make any sense? Yesterday, I had the opportunity to visit a musical instrument showroom and was able to try out the Nord Electro 6D 73, the Nord Piano 5 73, and the Yamaha YC73/88. Now I'm even more confused. I ruled out the Electro 6D because I really didn't like the waterfall keyboard at all. I absolutely loved the Piano 5 for its acoustic piano sound and the feel of the keybed; it's the one I connect with the most. The YC88 is too heavy for my liking (similar to my Korg C1), and I also find the YC73 too heavy compared to the Piano 5, which, in my opinion, is the most balanced for my playing style (personal preference). I love the interface of the YC73, and it reminds me a lot of my CK61, but I'm sure I won't use the drawbars for the organ part. I was pleasantly surprised by the construction of the Yamaha instruments as well. Right now, I'm about 60% convinced to buy the Nord Piano 5... the only thing that hasn't convinced me is the interface. Any friendly advice? Thanks in advance.
