New! Nord Electro 7!

Still can't decide between 73 SW or HP. Kawai board is just so tempting but synth and organ 3 scream waterfall.

Consider that it’s cheaper and easier to pair the NE7 with a SW midi controller, compared to a weighted controller. There are so many more options, both in key amount, action feel, and so on with SW.

I’ve owned a NE6 73 SW, NS3 Compact, and NS4 73HA. I was pleased with the SW keys for a while, but just wasn’t able to be my best while playing piano or epiano. I do fine with organ and synth on the HA, but I do also have a 49 key controller I occasionally use as well when I want the lighter feel.

The new Crumar DK61 would give you a reasonably-priced controller with waterfall keys and high trigger. OTOH if you added a hammer action controller to the HP, you'd lose the triple sensor behavior, even if driven from a triple sensor board.
