I am quite taken with new Roland AX-Synth. Many Bands are using them at the moment. I even saw Hawkwind with one a couple of weeks ago. Not only do they give keyboard players that freedom to move around and compete with the Guitar player, they now have onboard Fantom G sounds so you don't need any midi connections. I can't help it - they do look good and I want one. It seem so much fun. It has  a Ribbon controller, D Beam, modulation bar, knobs, and easy-to-see display for stage use. It also has an Innovative bender mode for expressive solos, for example you could play a guitar chord and just bend the last note. The AX-Synth has many great solo sounds onboard, but if you want to customize your sounds, you can download the dedicated PC software editor / librarian application. It connects to a PC via USB Midi. It has 128 patches, 49 velocity sensitive keys, 256 Tones + 8 Special Tones (including SuperNATURAL).
