Check out this piano sound for the M3. Is it only me, but this piano sounds every bit as good, if not better, than the kronos? Again, not looking to start anything, probably going to pick up a Kronos regardless, but K-sounds M3 piano, to my ears, competes with some of the best. Your thoughts?

Play a Kronos. Wink

I will say that I would've bought this K-Sounds piano if my main keyboard were still the M3. It does sound pretty good.

Definitely no need with a Kronos on the way...

WOW... Excellent, but Pianos are a Very Subjective thing. The Pianos In the Kronos Literally blew my Mind, but I still Prefer My K2600 and PC3 Pianos.. Even the Big Piano in my Oasys is a Go to sound! That M3 Piano IS incredible! Korg just has their s**t together now!! Smile

Like i said, not trying to start anything, but I'm just so damn dissapointed with the 73 weighted instead of semi-weighted, not because I don't like weighted because I do, but I don't like moving weighted keys, especially with a case involved. Even with the 73 weighted and a case you're looking at upwards of 70, 80 lbs. I really hope the Kronos sound quality just blows the M3 out of the water, but with the K-sounds piano on the M3, radias exp and perhaps the K-sounds organimation for hammond, I might just stick with the M3-73 because of the convenience, lightweight and C-C configuration. Going to try and get my hands on a Kronos this weekend. Will keep you all updated for anyone weighing the pro's and con's of M3 vs Kronos.

I say it's hard to say over youtube. There's some tinnyness I hear in the upper registers. That said, it's a very nice sounding sample set.

Still you're comparing an aftermarket sample product to production keyboard samples. Aftermarket has far less restrictions and concerns.

I did NOT hear anything that made me think it was as good as Kronos.
