Re: Polyevolver Keyboard feel?

This is how Clavia describes them:

   G2    -- 3 octave synth keyboard with aftertouch.
   G2X   -- 5 octave semi-weighted keyboard with aftertouch.
  	 
The Andromeda/PEK keyboard is also supposed to be "semi-weighted".
Still the G2X feels even better than the A6 to me.  I wish I had more
qualitative information so I could know whether I'm being fooled by
other factors (the G2X is just generally a lot more solid feeling than
the A6, so I could simply be reacting to that).

Any of you guys wanna open up your machines and find the keybed model
number somewhere...? :-)

[Yes, you could say "if it feels better why do you care the reason?" but
in my experience such perceptions tend to change after continued use if
they have no solid underlying basis, so it's nice to know if there is
such a basis or not.]
