CyberGene I'd go for a Yamaha P515, it seems to be a popular model both because it in itself is a great digital piano but also as a MIDI controller having a USB audio interface
This!
For some perspective, the Roland FP-90X costs $2,449.99 and it simply can’t hold a candle for the P-515 despite its ‘longer pivots’ and ‘modeling.’
Whatever Yamaha did with the CFX and VRM works exceptionally well, and I’m not a ‘sampling’ kind o’ guy, but still, WOW!
If you pair it with Pianoteq, you’re in heaven; if you blend both the on-board CFX and Pianoteq, it will take some extra tweaking (especially for volume/intonation), but it is so worth it, and can be done gradually (every time you sit at the piano you tweak a little/save; then, tomorrow, tweak a little more/save; and once you arrive at something satisfying you’re good to go (I haven’t ‘tweaked’ in ages).
I am serious, people, Roland overprices on the pretext of being better when in reality it isn’t; and generally speaking, Yamaha is better. Period. End of sentence.
Oh, I forgot, the P-515 was supposed to be a downgrade from my LX-17, and it turned out to be an upgrade for much less $$$.
You know those huge 10” subwoofers in the LX-17, they were loud alright, but the tiny speakers in the P-515 give me something so much more organic and “real,” that sometimes I just can’t believe it.
This is why I’ve been singing the P-515 praises for so long; it is, in my onion, an award-winning instrument for a meager $1,500!
