  1. UPDATE: It appears I may have to do something like this: (Yamaha PSR-EW310 with "low C" extension)
  2. Of course, there are a handful of his works that require notes above C7. Examples: Piano Sonata No. 26 in Eb "Les Adieux": [Eb1]-E1-F7 Piano Sonata No. 28 in A: [A0]-E1-E7 Piano Sonata No. 29 in Bb "Hammerklavier", full piece: Bb0-F7 Piano Sonata No. 30 in E: [B0]-D#1-C#7 Piano Sonata No. 32 in C minor: C1-Eb7 Piano Concerto No. 5 in Eb "Emperor", Piano part: Eb1-G7
  3. I think 73 (C1-C7) and 76 (A0-C7) can be beneficial/useful when playing some of Beethoven's works: Piano Sonata No. 7 in D: D1-F#6 Piano Sonata No. 8 in C minor "Pathetique": [C1]-F1-F6 Piano Sonata No. 14 in C# minor "Moonlight": [C#1]-E#1-E6 Piano Sonata No. 17 in D minor "Tempest": [C1]-E1-F6 Piano Sonata No. 21 in C "Waldstein": [C1]-E1-A6 Piano Sonata No. 22 in F: D1-F6 Piano Sonata No. 23 in F minor "Appassionata": [C1]-F1-C7 Piano Sonata No. 27 in E minor: E1-C7 Piano Sonata No. 29 in Bb "Hammerklavier", 4th movement only: Bb0 (NOT playable if the lowest note is C1) - C7 Piano Sonata No. 31 in Ab: C1-C7 Piano Sonata No. 32 in C minor: C1-C7 (Note) Piano Concerto No. 3 in C minor, Piano part: C1-C7 Eroica Variations: Eb1-F6 Diabelli Variations: C1-C7 Violin Sonata No. 5 in F "Spring", Piano part: F1-G6 Violin Sonata No. 9 in A minor "Kreutzer", Piano part: D1-F6 etc.
  4. I prefer a C1-C7 (73) or A0-C7 (76) - with weighted keys.
  5. But a 76-note keyboard starting on a C would end on a black key (Eb in this case). Are you sure that's fine for you?
  6. C-to-C 73-key keyboards were quite common and popular in the 2000s-early 2010s (thanks to Casio), but unfortunately their fame faded.
  7. But Nord's 76-key keyboards are a sh!tty E1-G7. I want A0-C7.
  8. This post is a follow-up to: Here are my ideal keyboard ranges (including those that may not actually exist today in reality): - 61 keys: F1-F6 - 68 keys: F1-C7 - 69 keys: E1-C7 - 73 keys: C1-C7 - 76 keys: A0-C7 - 77 keys: C1-E7 - 78 keys: C1-F7 - 80 keys: C1-G7 (or A0-E7) - 81 keys: A0-F7 - 82 keys: C1-A7 - 83 keys: A0-G7 - 85 keys: A0-A7 - 88 keys: A0-C8 What about you guys?

  10. That one sounds good, too. But I don't think Yamaha would ever make a keyboard with that kind of range...
  11. The range issue of the 76-key boards have been discussed many times here before so far, but I want Yamaha to make a 76-key instrument that has an A0-C7 (from the lowest A to the 2nd highest C on the 88-key piano) range. When the lowest note is an E, my left hand keeps falling off the keyboard. Wouldn't it be better to chop off the seldom-used top octave (while still keeping the C7 note) rather than removing the bass notes? Unfortunately, only a very few keyboards have such range, like the Prophet T8, VAX-77, CME VX-7, CME VX-70, etc. Yamaha doesn't make any keyboards with that range at all. (In fact, over 90% of all 76-key boards are E1-G7.) I wish if Yamaha would make a keyboard (like PSR or NP) that has the A-to-C 76-key range. Anyone agree with me? (Plus, the 73-key keyboards, like the CP-73 or P-121, should be C1-C7 rather than E1-E7, in my opinion.)
