I have a grand piano and I've been playing for many years now. But I want a nice piano that I can hook up to my computer and make music with.

Any suggestions? Reasonably priced, of course.

TIA

I'm not quite sure what you mean. Electronic keyboard, synthesizer or keyboard controller?

that's definitely what i'm looking for. pedal is not a necessity, but I want a keyboard with touch sensitive keys and a USB cable so I can use it with my computer.

$500 is a bit much, but that looks like what it's going to run me as I look at some other similar items.

You might need a pedal eventually though. It has a metronome too which can be useful. As well as 60 built in songs it can play. It's also the cheapest of the "real grand piano feel and sound types"

my suggestion: just pick ANY electronic piano that you like the feel and sound of best
then hook it to your comp via MIDI

don't worry about how new it is or whatever; just get one that you like the feel+sound of

>>so go to guitar center and try some there and then visit a few people on craigslist and give theirs a try
