Hi David; I'm new to the list. I'm Tina Wilson, and I just invested in Sound
Forge for my voice-over profession. I just had to say that you must be a
fantastic piano player because it sounds like you have played for years. I'm
just learning how to become an audio engineer; so most of the things that are
talked about on this list, I don't even understand yet, but hopefully, one day.
Have a great weekend. Tina

Hi Sharon, If it were me, I'd have to find some kind of 88 note keyboard. M
audio makes an inexpencive keyboard. I can't remember the model number but,
it's only about $600.00 or so. It is also semi weighted. It only weighs 17
pounds . It only has about seven sounds on board. However, you could use your
61 note keyboard and midi it up to the 88 note and put it on a double teard
stand and have them in front of you. and then you'd be able to play live. And
being that the M audio keyboard only weighs about 17 pounds, you could stand it
on end in a conor if room is an ishue. Anyway, that's what I'd do. When I was a
kid, I had a 7 by 10 bed room and I had an upright piano my sterio and 4
speakers a bed and dresser. I use to sit on the bed and play the piano. That's
a little tite but it worked.
Sorry for such a long explaination. I'll get back to you with the corect
model number. Hope that helps.
David
