I always loved the synthetic sounds of the Korg.
But for piano, Yamaha is #1.

I generally only play one at a time, although occasionally two. I have a 16-track multitracker. I I use different synths for different parts and sounds in my recordings. Being a full-time working husband and father of a 13-year-old, I don't get an awful lot of time to play these days. I'm also relegated to playing in a musty basement which is not exactly inspiring. (In our last place I had a nice attic studio overlooking the river, with carpets and Windows facing both east and west.) I don't know how my equipment stays in such decent condition down there now, but it generally does.I left behind a baby grand, and I got a Yamaha DGX. I'm saving up for a Clavinova one of these days.
How do you play so many keyboards at once? Or is it just a display?
So you're into MIDI, right?I generally only play one at a time, although occasionally two. I have a 16-track multitracker. I I use different synths for different parts and sounds in my recordings.

I do play a few times a week, sometimes laying some tracks and sometimes just jamming through the night. Sometimes a few months later I go over some of my recorded material and discover stuff that I don't even remember doing, and I think to myself "gee that's worth building on!"
Incidentally I forgot to mention a string synthesizer I have, Waldorf's "Streichfett". It gets plenty of use and I don't know why I didn't mention it. When I heard your piano piece, which is a nice little ditty by the way!... the first thing I thought was that I wanted to add some strings to it using my Waldorf!
Well, you know... I have mostly only used MIDI to control synth modules from my keyboards. I'm not into sequencing and stuff like that much. I prefer straight audio recording in most cases. I have also used midi connections to download sounds and patches to my keyboards in the form of Sysex. The way I use midi is pretty simple compared to the way it can be used. If you have one good keyboard and a number of synthesizer modules connected to it via MIDI you really have a whole bunch of keyboards rolled into one.So you're into MIDI, right?
so few people that i have ever met that are into midi....
