AnotherScott Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I'm still not sure if the new 4D is multi-timbral. It is not. Maybe this is the best place for a shameless plug! Our now not-so-new new video at https://youtu.be/3ZRC3b4p4EI is a 40 minute adaptation of T. S. Eliot's "Prufrock" - check it out! And hopefully I'll have something new here this year. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wruess Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I was in fact also concerned about quality of build in the SK1 because the drawbars feel a bit delicate and the board is light as a feather.... Here's a little ironic bonus I noticed the other night. I use the SK1 on the upper 'tier' of my old Unison stand (no longer made, but built like a tank), over a 55lb stage piano. Despite the stand's strength, this rig was slightly top-heavy with my old (41-lb) XK-3 on top. This made for a very slight wobble to the whole rig. With the lightness of the SK1, the upper board feels absolutely rock solid - as if I were playing on a much heavier instrument. Did not expect this at all, but it is a very nice change.

Physics in action. The center of balance (i.e. gravity) is evidently lower and the overall stability or inertia is increased with the lighter SK1 on top.
