I had the Triton LE for a number of years- it held up well and as you said despite the keyboard it made some nice music. I view the Krome as an improvement especially among the AP/EP/B3 sounds.sani wrote:I consider myself as a pro or at least as semi pro. Being a pro doesn't necessarily mean that my keyboard have to be the most expensive flagship products.
I toured with a triton le twice and with a tr too. I never had a problem with the built quality. (The biggest problem was the terrible keybed. But it worked, it's just that it was absolutely no joy to play it).
On the other side, which keyboard is built like a tank these days? The ones from Korg are certainly not. Some Roland staf is. Like the Jupiter 80. But it's also not perfect. It's very bulky, hard to transport, weights definitely to much for a semi weighted board and it also has some cheap plastic on knobs and especially around the joystick.
Weight? Well, I'm 40 and I have to admit it makes more and more of a difference to me. After a littlebit more than 20 years on stage I really appreciate and feel the difference in 5-6 kilos. Don't forget to add a hard case and the weight of the keyboard doubles.
Can't comment on the sound on the output of a Krome since I don't own one.
My point is just, regardless whether somebody is a pro or not, if you play those low level keyboards in a normal manner and don't behave like a crazy idiot on it, it will certainly serve you well for years.
thanks for confirming.HowardK wrote:To me, they felt identical (I have the SP280 and the Krome 61).semmi78 wrote:can anyone confirm if the Krome 88 uses an identical keybed as the SP280?
Note even though it is NH it does not feel "mushy" like the SP170.
Off topic, I thought the kross 88 felt horrible.
