Re: [yamahacs80] Re: Lightening the action

Personally, it's one of my favorites for keyboard action and response. I'm surprised some of you folks find it a hindrance. It really helps me play more rhythmically and in time with other musicians.

I doubt you can adjust the action without actually replacing the keys. 
The only reasonable, if expensive, way to do this is to add the Kenton 
MIDI kit. Then you can use any MIDI keyboard.

Good luck!
