This isn't my statement, it's the statement of someone who has been dealing with italian manufacturers for years. Now, please don't flame me for being anti-italian. Wait until they got the mistakes sorted out". My dealer said to me: "Never order anything 1.0 from and Italian company.
I guess GEM is to small and young to get everything right the first time. I've had the promega crash on me 2 times this year, before I got the upgraded board.
I been using a promega 3 for a year now and it is a superb keyboard for piano and steely dan-ish style rhodes.īe sure you get the latest upgraded mainboard. Wish they were more widely accessible to try. Especially the keyboard feel is a matter of personal preference, and that varies a lot among players.Have you had chance to compare one to an S90? That seems to be the default oprion for me for my next weighted 88, but perhaps I should make sure I look at a promega as well. Of course, I would not advice buying it without trying it beforehand. The only negative I can notice is the weight: It's heavy.

Immediacy of programming is fantastic: Motorized faders! Plus graphic EQ on the front panel. In particular, I like the EPs, clavs, brass, pads, vibes, but I don't care too much for the organs, synths and bass sounds. Plus, you have four layerable sections, without losing polyphony.
The other onboard sounds vary a bit in quality, from terrific to so-so, but generally better than the 'other' sounds in the most popular digital pianos. Top-notch piano sounds,and exceptional 'connection' between keys and sound. Fans of Baldwin vertical pianos love the beautiful cabinetry of the Acrosonic models and the durability of the institutional models.I don't own the Promega, but I have played it several times, and I must say that I love it. The Accu-just hitchpins and Synchro-tone bass strings used on ArtistGrands are also important Baldwin innovations.įans of Baldwin pianos love the big “American” sound of the instruments, particularly in the bass area, and the clear “bell-like” quality in the high treble end. The scale design is the “recipe” for the piano that consists of the materials used and all specifications, including the exact shape of the sound boards, the placement of the bridges and ribs, the length of the strings and the thickness of the rims and bracing. The most important aspect of technology in Baldwin pianos is their scale design. Baldwin has been in the business for 150 years and has become the piano of choice for the world’s hottest artists, including Aaron Copland, Liberace, Dave Brubeck, Marian McPartland, Ben Folds and Miley Cyrus. History is extremely important to the Baldwin brand. Baldwin pianos are famous for their touch, tone, and durability. The handmade Artist Grands, built at the Trumann Factory in the U.S.A., are among the finest anywhere, at any price.
Since then, Baldwin has become the only American piano company to make and distribute quality pianos to all price ranges and aspects of the piano market. In 1866, he hired Lucien Wulsin as a clerk, and the two eventually became partners in the venture, at the time named D.H. The company got its start in 1862, when beloved Cincinnati-based piano teacher Dwight Hamilton Baldwin launched a Decker Brothers piano dealership. Baldwin is about more than pianos-it’s about peerless quality and the absolute best-sounding and best-playing pianos anywhere.
