performance gold dust.

I have played the T8 a few times and I'm sorry to say I didn't like the 
keyboard action. And the sound of the T8 isn't particularly special either.

But then I prefer the action of the mid to late 1980 Roland keyboards in 
general.

 > the DX7 has PolyAT :-)

I don't think it does. And it doesn't send the full velocity data 
either, going up to 100 I believe. Nice keyboard though.

Some of the Ensoniq keyboards sent poly aftertouch. The ones that use 
magnetic coupling and needs to calibrate itself on power up. Very nicely 
built too although they do get warm on UK mains voltages.
