I think I am searching for a cheap and second hand piano sound. Of
course I like to have it as good as possible, but simply don't have the
money to get the best....
Maybe you guys can name some modules which are worth to search for on ebay?
I;ve an fatar sl 880 and I'm searching now
for a piano soundmodule so I
don't have to use my Linux box for playing piano always.
What are good soundmodules with a acceptable piano sound?
Sometimes I think about buying an Alesis nanoPiano. Don't know if it is really
good, but I know at least one guy who was using it. And as a backup it can't
hurt.
On the other hand I still have a Roland JV-880 that I got together with my
Fatar sl-760. ;-)
I think it actually depends on your usecase and your financial abilities.
If you need it only as a backup when you don't have your laptop due to
technical problems or laziness, then maybe a "cheap" device from ebay is
right.
If you really want to use it and have the money, you should take your best and
favorite headphones[*] and go into a store to test and play different
modules.
Hope that helps,
Arnold
[*] Take your own headphones you are used to, because otherwise either the
headphone will be crap and make all the synths sound bad, or you get a
headphone/speaker you don't know and which you can't use to judge sounds.
