Still would be interested to see and hear it played on a RD800 (or MP11.) Regardless, it raises the question again about the action of digital pianos and its compatibility with classical music. http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/muc/4614862975.html

I was trained on an upright Rösler with really heavy action, so most DP actions besides the MP11 have me feeling like the keybed is covered with oil

No, unfortunately at my skill level my post would read: "Will you play Journey's Don't Stop Believing on my Roland RD-800?"
