Yes, someone else (slower) pointed that out to me as well and I heard the same in other newsgroups. Considering that I don't like the pitch bend/modulator lever on the Rolands either, that is another set off.

I have recently got my hands on a Roland EP series digital piano and it was an OLD unit and I was surprised that the feel on the keyboard was still good. It was not weighted, but a really good synth feel...almost like B3 feel and it would work great for organs. I would be more tempted to go this route, but MIDI is very limited. No split, no pitch, no mod. I probably would get a Roland EP series if I would team it up with the Kontrol49 for a dual keyboard setup. But I agree, I think I am going to veer away from the A-37 now.

Thank you for your input...it is appreciated. In fact thank you all!!
