sample playback keyboard question


Recommended Posts

Hey, guitar player here, minimal key experience. I want to set up a little rig in my studio with a specific purpose.

 

I want to play back piano, B-3, harpsichord, and melotron.

 

I know that I can buy good samples of most of these instruments. I figured to get the Pinter melotron disk, I'm open to suggestion on the rest.

 

I have a DX-7, and cpmputers and good sound cards.

 

But I'm willing to just buy a keyboard, or a sample player (over the computer) if that is a better answer.

 

If you needed to do this, what hardware would you use? And are there some prefered sample disks for these instruments? Or is there a better/other solution?

Hi Bill and welcome to The Keyboard Corner where we seem to argue about everything lately. :rolleyes::D <= THERE'S A SMILEY THERE FOLKS. I'M KIDDING AGAIN, OK?

 

 

Sheesh...

 

Anyway, I would like to put my vote in for the Kurzweil PC2 series; either the keyboards or the rack. Add the Classic Keys ROM and the unit will have everything you listed above, and more.

 

Here is a LINK if you would like more information.

Maybe we should rename it the KeyBored Corner. :)
