Kurzweil PC4

Having used a Kurzweil PC3X as my main keyboard for about 10 years, I was exited about getting the new light weight PC4.
I am playing in a cover band playing all kinds of rock tunes and the Kurzweil’s are perfect for that.

Cutting almost 12 kilogram off a keyboard comes at a cost off course; plastic contruction rather than metal, external power supply and slightly worse keybed.
But these are minor concerns as the PC4 feels very well build and nice to play over all. The action isn’t exactly wonderful, but perfectly fine to play and it’s surprisingly fast.

The PC4 has much, much better pianos, EP’s and clavinets than the PC3 and the new FM-Engine is great fun.
The KB3 organ engine also seems to sound slightly better than in the PC3, especially the key click.
Compared to my Roland FA-06 which is another mid-range workstation, the PC4 shines in almost every sound category, and it blows the Roland out the water in terms of sound quality.

I am really looking forward to take this beast on stage.
