RE: COMPLETE OVERVIEW OF KEYBED - whitecolin1 - 11-11-2023
The best key bed ive ever tried was the Roland fp90 better than yamaha cvp709 or p515

Chello. Excellent listing.
For my playing enjoyment it was the Yamaha 9000PRO

Interesting that you prefer the 9000 Pro.
It is not stated which model keybed this uses, but the 61 version uses the Yamaha C61 K6.
There is also a big difference in the keybed model for the Tyros series - Tyros1 uses a completely different keybed model than the later ones.
I suspect the Tyros1 uses pretty much the same as the 9000.
A bombshell: I can confirm a fact nobody would have believed:
I have a loose keybed from Pa1X 61, and played on this at the same time as Pa5X 76.
'Guess what...
The keybed from the Pa1X 61 is better than that of the Pa5X 76; it's easier to play on, and is better noise dampened..!
It is actually very similar to that on the OASYS, but is dampened far better.
I'm reasonably sure that the 9000 Pro uses roughly the same keybed as the OASYS and Tyros1.
By studying the list, several shocking facts are revealed, such as that the Korg i2 76 used the same keybed as the OASYS.
The same list confirms that there has been a negative development of keybeds for later arranger/synth models - both the Tyros series (even Genos) and the Pa series have presented worse keybeds for each new model.
The best keybed I've ever played on is the one on the Korg Krome EX-88; this is better than the Nautilus 73, and better noise dampened than the one on the OASYS.
It is completely meaningless that the cheap Krome should have a better keybed than the Nautilus, but these are hard facts.
OASYS is the easiest to play of all, but makes quite a lot of noise.
At the same time, the Pa1X 61's keybed is completely superior to all other PaX models.
Conclusion:
Everything was made better before.

Chello. Key-Bed feel is very difficult to assess because we all have different preferences which each of us prefer.
The early Korg i3 & i30 were also very good for me.
the older Yamaha HX1 organ also contained a nice key-bed.
