Re: [Logic_Cafe] Ensoniq Keyboards

2006-12-08 by Gio

Hi HKC,
I used Ensoniq for many years, and they do have good sounds, but they  
are flimsy. Buttons, sliders, and the screens go out VERY regularly.
I'm not knocking them but I think you can go further for the same  
price with either a Software Piano, and an M-Audio 88 weighted key  
controller.
That way if your son wants to expand from Piano to synthesizers, to  
drum machines played from the keyboard he can do that.
A controller will never really go out of style.
A dedicated sound module will.
Good Luck
Ciao
Gio
