Re: An1x keyboard action

2004-07-21 by zengoogoo

Hello,

The key action is very good.  Not as semi-weighted as the highoend 
korg/yamaha keyboards, but not as bad as most unweighted midi 
controllers (m-audio etc).  I find it a little lighter than the 
keyboards of the Roland XP-30 and Novation KS4 that I used to own.

The problem that I have when using it as a controller for other 
synths is that its aftertouch is VERY sensitive.  AT depth can be 
scaled in the control matrix, but I can't find anything that will let 
me tame it for external synths.  If I could, I'd be very happy 
indeed!  

Good luck!
