How does that add to the feel?I don't know how that shape (or the accompanying added mass) affects the feel per se, but as a whole, I prefer the feel of the PC4-7 keys to those of the MODX. T looks like the PC4-7 keys have a bottom part to them (like piano keys), as opposed to my MODX-7, which like most synth/"semi-weighted" actions has nothing underneath them. Where would I find those PC3/Kore programs? My PC3 died years ago. The acoustic Framus guitar and Nylon aren't bad either. See if there's anything there that suits you. However, I was able to significantly improve the electric guitars in the PC4 by adding the Purgatory Creek adaptation of the Jensen Guitar Collection sampleset (Jensen seems to be gone, but the soundset is still available from Purgatory Creek). Guitars (and pads and basses), as I noted in the regular PC4 thread, are definitely a weak point. That one sounds closer to an upright and is somewhat naturally detuned. What type of piano sound do you quantify as a country piano? It seems to me that you might be able to get something you like if you start with the 7' Yamaha sample and change some EQ and effects. Good fiddles on a keyboard are very difficult to find. So, pluses and minuses.Īgreed about the drumkits - though you can load any missing PC3/Kore64 programs in if there was a certain one you liked.

I"m hoping it sounds good through the Spacestation. It"s a bit noisy in a quiet room, but it feels fine. There are a ton of weird kits I"ll never use, though.īut I like the action. Granted, I"ve only had it since Saturday, but I can"t find drum kits for big band/Sinatra songs, 60s Motown/R&B, and only a few "normal" kits. No country pianos or guitars (like a Johnny Cash 'Folsom Prison Blues" type of 1950s guitar, or a clean lead suitable for songs like Larry Carlton"s 'Sleepwalk" or George Benson"s 'Breezin" '), no selection of fiddles as opposed to pristine violins, and also, they left out a lot of useful drum kits (if they are just going to re-use PC3 sounds). I"m surprised and a bit disappointed that there are so many 10+ year old sounds in this PC4-7. Strictly for those who baby it, but still want solid case protection. The width is very tight so you would need that thin foam for that also. They had to remove both layers of bottom foam in order to close the lid, but if you can find thin enough bottom foam it"s built solid for $199. I brought my PC4-7 to the store and tried it out.

Here"s a 50.50"L x 19.75"W x 5.00"H Roto Mold case from SKB for $309:Īnd this 54' x 15' x 6.4' case from Bass Pro Shops: May cause an issue closing the lid all the way, too. That may be too tight to get any effective padding. I don"t need to fly with it, but I do need to lay it across my Rock n Roller cart and put a spacestation on top of it.Įdit to add: this is the SKB case that would seem perfect, but it"s 14.50" (50.50" x 14.50" x 6.00"). I found this Plano (54" x 15" x 6.4") for $230, but I"m not sure if it"s decent quality. And I don"t want to spend $450 on a case. I"m not even sure if the cases that are 14.50" wide will work - it would be tight.

The 14.07" width rules out a ton of cases by many manufacturers that only go to 13.50" interior. I"m having a hard time finding the appropriate injection-molded case for the PC4-7.
