Good job. Has the CP4 been pensioned off - looks like a CP88? If so how do you find the action - some say it’s a bit heavy. The piano sound is very good - do you still use Elton’s MKS/Motif set up?
Yes, I sold my CP4 last year. Honestly, I didn’t notice much of a difference in weigh since it’s essentially the same Graded Hammer Action wooden keys. There may have been some tweaks, but to me, not really perceivable. This piano is phenomenal, and I don’t plan a changing it out for a long time. The capabilities with analog controls, the aluminum constructions instead of plastic, the sampling… I’m thrilled. And yes, you’re hearing the MKS-20/Motif, as well as some of the CP88.
@@20gravedigger11 Good to hear that you’re pleased with the CP88. I’m between pianos at the moment and also do EJ tribute material (no YT channel yet). Had a Nord Piano 4 which had a nice light action but was overkill for what I needed. Just waiting to see if Roland ‘ever’ replace the RD2000. In the meantime I might try the MKS Sensation App linked up to my ancient Roland FP4.
@@strongchord4384 I "test drove" the Roland RD-2000... the CP4 action blew it out of the water, never mind the CP88. The Roland has a "notchy" feel to it... it's not buttery smooth and linear like the Yamaha. I didn't care for it at all, but instrumentation is very subjective. Unfortunately, I've never played a Nord, as I don't have a local dealer where I live.
