How good is the Grand Piano voice on the Kross88? I need it to be good enough to learn on & work with for quite a while. I have also researched some PC-based piano voices. Does anyone have experience with them; and how much better will they be than the Korg Grand Piano? How much does one need to spend to get a piano sound better than Kross?:
The ones I know about are:
1) ~$70: Pianissimo (standalone or part of Mixcraft Pro Studio 6)
2) $174.50: East West Quantum Leap Pianos Gold
3) $189: Synthogy Ivory II American Concert D
4) $245: East West Quantum Leap Pianos Platinum
5) $329: Synthogy Ivory II Grand Pianos
I'm quite sure there are many more to choose from. What are your opinions? Cost is a concern. I need a keyboard that has a good enough piano voice to keep me motivated to learn & grow. I think the piano voices on either the Krome or the Kronos would be more than adequate but they are not in my price range.
I viewed a recent YT faceoff between the Casio PX5s and the Kross, and the guy chose the Casio (pianomanchuck https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VfQw2LbI24 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uK_L5cEKTcA). The Casio is on sale for $799, but I do not like the keybed action at all. Do I need a better piano voice than the Kross Grand?
