Hardware is awesome, keybed is very good for a classical pianist trained. I use it as a MIDI controller most of all, but I've used the Expansion for Piano and works amazing live. Also some synth samples let you get very classic sounds without much effort, of course it lacks from the synthesis, but works perfectly considering pianos have infinite polyphony and you can stack 8 layers of different sounds (7 if you consider a piano in the first layer).

Is the best 64 midi controller ever, it never gets old. It is a unicorn in midi controllers, 9 faders are perfect for controlling hammond vsts, this and having aftertouch (although I do not use it often) and MIDI THRU is a rare combination. Pads are not very sensitive (it feels like it has 3 velocities) I used them as transport bar or for marking tempo. You can power it via USB or DC. Key action is good, keys are small, but we are talking about an amazing midi controller that weights less than 5kg. I used it for more than 10 years without problem.

Amazing Synth for its weight and size. Very hard to program, but very warmth sound. As someone who comes from Operator (Ableton) it was challenging to program in that tiny screen with so many tabs and buttons, I suposse its better to have everthing on the board like a CS, but by the other hand you have 4 banks with 8 sounds each. Can receive Expression cc and it affects some sounds (tried it from Roland A800pro). Polyphony is low, but is part of the charm Speakers can get distorted if not used correctly

It is a very good keyboard for going to travel (with batteries). Also works as midi controller (via usb or bluetooth) but keys are not good in terms of sensibility for professional use (production). It is the ultimate keyboard for going to travel and create music, perfect for songwritting, very lightweight.
