|
|
I'm no piano player, but listening/watching this video, at 4:00 on,
the key-bed sounds a little louder than I had expected to hear. Is this normal for RH3?

Hi Lou,
I don't speak Japanese, but are you sure it's an RH3 and not a 61?
I only listened on an iPad, but couldn't be sure these sounds weren't part of the sound.

agreed - that's similar to the sound my M3-61 makes when i smack the keys really hard (Kronos uses the same keybed as the M3 61)... and that guy is hittin those keys really hard! but when he plays just a little softer, there's no sound. And those keys look like they have more bounce than a weighted keyboard would. It's so hard to tell just by looking at them _________________ Korg Kronos-61, 01/Wfd, SONAR Pro |

Looking at the space from the bottom of the screen to where the keys start, it is clearly a 73 or 88. (Roughly 2")
The 61 has very little space between the bottom of the screen and the keys.
61
73

I stand corrected, you are right; that's definitely not a 61.
Well, noisy or not, it's nice to see that they have made some at all
I did try out an SV-1 before I ordered my 88, but didn't notice it being noisy. My Yamaha P-80 however, is pretty noisy on key up fwiw.

This does not at all sound encouraging to someone like me considering a 73 version!
The very first thing I would check thoroughly now after receiving a Kronos would be looking for irregular spaces between keys and listening to key noises. I would never accept playing a sloppy keybed, without getting it replaced. |

I'm sure the RH3 keys will be very satisfying for a player.
In the past I have had a bad run on keys and choose to skip even the slightest possibility of being disgruntled with a Kronos purchase.
I've reconsidered and am comfortable, going with the 61. (Not because of the video) _________________ Lou |

My pleasure Lou.
As stated after all experiences reflected in the thread I posted, the most inteligent move would be to try the RH3 before place any preorder, to ensure it suits you. _________________ Regards.
