Hi Friends
I want to bay en extreme with 88 keys but i dont know if there are any difference with ex 66?,i mean is the keyboard with 88 keys is heavier in playing than ex66?.
Is the ex88 made for just piano players or it's easy to play synth musics with fully wieghted keys?.
I hope they understand me.
Regards. :?

The 88-key keybed is weighted; the 61 and 73 key versions are synth action. So yes, it takes more pressure and force to play the 88-key version. If you're good and have the finger stamina, there isn't much you won't be able to do easily on the 88-key version (palm smears like you'd do on an organ come to mind; they're doable on a piano but they can hurt). If you have piano experience and the weight and size of the 88-key version isn't a problem, go with it.
