With all due respect, this is not a helpful reply. The Yamaha CP-70 is an electro-acoustic grand piano from the late '70s. Granted, it can sound quite close to an acoustic piano (although nowadays even the cheapest Casios have more realistic piano samples), but that's ALL it'll do. No string, brass, organ or synth sounds. It weighs a huge amount, takes up vast quantities of space (even when folded for transport) and needs regular tuning (it is after all a real piano). I think the original question was about modern keyboards that could cover the whole range of imitative sounds convincingly. Try the Casio WK-3000, or if you can't afford it, the CTK-691 (the same but with a shorter keyboard).
