I own two Ketron SD7s and it is without any reservations THE BEST KEYBOARD I HAVE EVER OWNED! To put this in perspective, I started with the PSR3000, then Tyros 3, then Tyros 4, Also Roland E50 and E80, also korg PA1x Pa2X-Pro, and the PA4X. I have gigged with all of them. Without a doubt the SD7 far surpasses these keyboards in what I need for my gigs and what my audiences are telling me is the best sound they have heard from me. So, like the other poster, I too will recommend to others to take a serious look at the SD7. I can't speak for the SD9-Pro because i don't own one. Anyway, that is my 2 cents worth. Deane I was just kidding, dutch humor... just remembering Donny's hands on experience with the SD7 Offcourse one can be very enthousiast over instruments you own, have owned or simply played a lot... for me just touching one briefly or only seeing it on youtube often times is enough.. and luckily everyone has its own opinion, or there would be no discussions left.. I dont think any of the pro keyboards created can be called bad or even average, they are all above average up to spectacular good... I think i do understand why you like your sd7 as you have explained to us quite well on some ocasions... to me where it comes to spectacular keyboards, sd7 is right up there with the tyros5 and the pa4x... _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net

Bachus Senior Member Registered: 03/02/06 Posts: 7143	Originally Posted By Dnj Keyfeel is a very p[ersonal choice for each player..... I prefer a light touch...... What's next hammer graded accordion keybeds? just sayin Overhere in europe, we have a company to rebuilds any high emd keyboard into a duall accordeon board with knobs... And yes, i think next up is a totl arranger with an option to buy 88 key graded hammer action... as i said before, here in europe the youngsters come from pianno lessons backgrounds and just want 88 keys.. and a collection of more modern build in styles... _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net

Dnj Senior Member Registered: 09/21/00 Posts: 43703	many times my opinions were based on using the kb day after day in and out performing hundreds of shows a year, speed weight ease of use is imperative......that said if your not performing out your needs will certainly change and be different and you'd probably choose a different kb for home or studio use where portability isn't an issue,...Ketron arranger units will fill that bill very efficiently..and sound amazing.

Doesnt everyone have its own wants and needs? Choosing a new keyboard is mostly a trade off ... but in the end, we are quite lucky that all keyboards are far above average these days.. _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net
