Piano World Home Page Forums Our Most Popular Forums Digital Pianos - Electronic Pianos - Synths & Keyboards What is the best Yamaha keyboard with these features?

To forum members other than the afore quoted, here goes my suggestion:

It's time for Pete14 to inject some humor here.
And what's more ... peterws is overdue for the same.

Isn’t it odd when the pot calls the kettle black?

He’s calling ‘us’ rude yet he’s the true jerk! lol, lmao, “laughs hysterically”, rotfl.....
I just can’t keep up with these millennials and their shortcomings (no wonder they can’t spell; always condensing and simplifying), but I’ve said too much; lol!
I’m perhaps too sensible for this forum.



P.S.

We love James!

I feel like your rage over trying to find two keyboards in one has been... pushed onto us. Jokes exist, by the way.

OK folks, let's get back to talking about Yamaha keyboards or this one is done.

The problem is is that YOU are not being nice. Maybe through no fault of your own and you don't realize it, but you are being quite rude in some of your posts and there is no reason why you shouldn't expect the same in return.

There are no bad nuts on this forum, at least until recently.

You can close this post. Too many trolls and extremely delusional fragile keyboard warriors in the comments.

So, I am a total newbie to the forum, but to help get things back onto pianos.... please bear with me as I go through this. OP, please note that I've also been doing a ton of research on this, and I am going to recommend something you obviously know about - sorry in advance if that is not what you were hoping for.

You want an action that still is somewhat like a synth action, but a more piano-like feel.

You want a pitch bend wheel (you want two, but at least that one I presume).

You want a host of sounds.

You want a triple pedal unit.

You also seem to want something affordable.

I think the right choice my be the Yamaha DGX-660. 88 keys, the action is lighter than the GH3 or NWX, it has a pitch wheel, has a host of sounds, and can take at least a triple pedal unit and/or a controller (not sure if it can do both at once). It also has the exact screen you are looking for (you mentioned the DGX 660), it has direct USB recording, and the action is much more synth-like on the DGX. It also has the speakers and basically everything you were looking for. Plus, given that you are price conscious to the point that rental isn't an option, it's a bargain within your budget - you can buy several fantastic VST pianos with the leftover between that price and the fully kitted-out DGX-660. Your local retailer can probably put a package together for you.

I played the DGX and the P515 back to back last weekend, and decided what I want for me - I already have a synth, so I went with the P515. Given your desire for an action that is a quicker response, that would likely be the DGX.

Good luck with your search.

Thanks to everyone who honestly helped me and was a nice person! I really appreciate you all! AND a huge screw you to everyone who attempted to bully me in this post and the other post someone made, and be delusional and lie and say that I SOMEHOW started being rude first... I guess you're all cool with just making stuff up and sharing the made up experiance together like a bunch of psychopaths? LOL Is this the new version of the Mandela effect? Haha Lastly, at the person who said I did no research, OF COURSE I didn't do much research... WHY do you think I'm asking Q U E S T I O N S here?? It's part of my RESEARCH. LOL Morons. I swear. lol Also at the old person. Ok Boomer.

I hope I don't run into to many more toxic people like most of you in this post, or I'll be leaving this site, and if I do? When anyone in the future asks me to recommend them to a piano site? I'll ALWAYS mention to avoid this site due to the toxic community who is apparently also ok with bullying someone who is just asking a simple question. (Someone made a separate post making fun of me after this, and the comments are filled with people making jokes about my posts and how I post questions about keyboards... All of that, over me trying to find a keyboard and gain knowledge... what no lifed, sad, sad losers those people are. Haha Sticks and stones as they say, I'm not really too bothered as I have thick skin. ) Anyways, I HOPE to stay on this site for years to come. I don't like drama, I like peace and music, among many, many other calming things. lol I'm a chill/funny/fun/extremely talented person, and I hope I can encounter more of the same NICE people that are like me.

Again, thank you to the few nice and awesome people who helped me out in this post!

Hey thanks! I was reallyyyyy close to getting the DGX 660... SO. CLOSE. lol BUT.. unfortunately, it's missing the modulation wheel, and the port for an expression pedal. Those are all extremely make or break to me honestly as I need to play A LOT of virtual midi instruments and NEED both wheels and an expression pedal no matter what. I need a keyboard that can do it all, well all as in, everything that I personally need it to do. lol as I can't afford to get stuck while in a work flow in the future. I know I can add pedals and stuff onto the keyboard using external midi devices but I want to limit the wires stretching across my room. lol I really appreciate you trying to help me! Unlike most of the other trolls in these comments. lol Thanks again!

Wow. It's amazing how much can be made up in the mind when someone feels offended.

I am closing this thread.

Then I am closing the Williams Piano thread.

Imagine this. Someone sends moderator reports on this topic and MelodicRevengexX's posts. I look through the posts and wow, I guess his responses were disproportionate. So I send him a PM about it.

Imagine my surprise to have him point out to me that another entire topic was created to poke fun at him and that's why he SEEMED over the top.

SHAME ON ALL INVOLVED.
