HI folks,
Longtime lurker here! I play mostly funk and soul, with a ton of clav & Hammond..
I recently sold my Electro 3 to upgrade to something that splits. Currently have the DMC-122/Gemini combo, which is awesome, but may be a bit too heavy and impractical for every gig, as so much of its on-the-fly editing is done in the online editor. However, I didn't want to go with an Electro 5 or 6 because I love playing the clav, and I want to have onboard modeling for the clav pickups and the bril/treb/med/soft switches. Gotta play me some Outa Space.
I'd like to get something for smaller gigs. Are there any other keyboards in the 73-key, waterfall-keys, funk-oriented range that have on-the-fly clav pickup modeling, and that split? I don't think the Hammond SK1 has clav pickup emulation, and I haven't been all that impressed with their clav sounds. The Mojo 61 has the clav emulation, because it has the same engine as the DMC-122/Gemini, but it doesn't split. The Korg Vox splits, but I haven't seen any reviews that discussed the clav modeling.
