Our church is looking for a new keyboard - mainly for B3 and church organ sounds, string and pad sounds, brass, and EP sounds.
I have a Korg X5d that has killer Hammond B3 sounds and great pads, etc so I'm familiar with Korg products. I played a Korg X50 today and the sounds are also great -- good B3 sounds and the ability to use the mod wheel to add a Leslie speaker (rotary) effect. The unit itself is a bit chincy feeling to me. It costs $699 at most places.
I was wondering if the Roland Juno D would be something for us to check also? Anyone know of the quality of the B3, strings, etc compared to the Korg? Also, can you get a decent rotary speaker effect with it? And, does the unit itself feel like it's solidly made?
Which would you buy?
