Hi,
I am new to the forum. I am in the market for a good "all-around" 88-weighted key (or similar action) stage-type piano. Sequencer is not a must, but I would like that capability if possible as I would like to have the flexibility to compose with the instrument as well. I would like the ability to change sound patches without killing the sound as I switch from one to the other during a live performance. I really need excellent pianos, strings, pads, electric pianos but would also like decent drums, bass guitar, acoustic guitar (for the composition/sequencing piece). Again, looking for primary instruments that you would see in a praise & worship band. Price range ideally no more than $1500. Have contemplated going with an inexpensive controller and then using rack approach (such as Motif or Ivory II) instead of sinking my life savings in a full-blown unit (like the Motif XF) for which most of the sound patches will not be used by me. Suggestions?
