Re: Interesting video on the design of the new TP400WOOD

I've seen all possible vids and reviews of the TP400W on both the Vivo S9 and Numa XGT on YT, thanks for sharing though.

The Numa XGT is an appealing DP to me, I've not tried it personally but I'm closely following all feedbacks and opinions from other users.

For some reason, it doens't get much attention in this forum, but there's an interesting conversation goign on at PW in case you wanna give it a read:

Re: Interesting video on the design of the new TP400WOOD

I had it only for a very short while! I'm still using the sl88grand .. my impression of the keybed was very good! but the sounds of it I didn't enjoy at all! and then there are so many knobs compared to the sl88 .. and the powerswitch didn't work properly from the beginning!

so to me it was quite a dissapointment. althoug the tp400wood is defintely an improvement. I found I was playing a bit better and a bit easier/smoother...

Sounds like they made more improvements to TP100 than TP40wood. TP400 looks like Roland's PHA4 with wood veneers. Hopefully some stores get these on the floor. Kawais are almost nonexistent in person right now. PHA50 is the nicest in a portable format that I've been able to try recently.

I am curious to know about the aftertouch in the new keybed. In the SL88 it seemed to have only ON/OFF feel in the keys. I was completely unable to find any way to create a continuous feel on the demo version in the shop.
