Instead of the too-heavy, hammer-action of my Kronos 88, I would've much preferred the lighter-action Kronos LS-88-same synth-different color (brownish-red), and a semi-weighted keybed instead of hammer-action.
I just hate having price influence so many of these kinds of decisions. So even though I could use a different controller for the Montage 6, that would defeat the whole purpose of getting another hardware synth, and especially so with the Montage. If I fall in love with the Montage and start playing bass-octaves/chords with that more than on my Kronos, I'll know I'll probably regret not getting the 7.Īs some of you know, I've been ping-ponging back and forth between going all-softsynths or getting a new Montage, and now I'm back in the "hardware rules!" camp again (ask me why). Not sure how much time I'll spend with my new Montage, or how I'll be using/playing it yet (backing tracks, leads, etc.) since I already have two 88-key ROMplers in the mix: Fantom G8 and Kronos 88 (I got the Kronos 88 since that's where all of my SSD orchestral libraries are). Even my 37-key VirusTI Polar never really bothered me either (but again, I typically only play bass-lines or leads on that).Īlso, I had a Motif XF6 for a few days, and I seemed fine with it as well. I have a 61-key V-Synth GT, but I mainly play leads on it so it never bothered me. I'm not a skilled pianist, but I do like playing bass octaves fairly low on the keys with my left hand. Thanks for your input guys! Of course, I really want the 7 (seems you both did as well), but the price on a Montage 6 demo seems too good pass up.
