My starter setup - Upgraded now to Kawai CA-58
Just wanted to share.
Very cheap setup to get me started into the 88 keys world.
Enough to practise a bit. Gettin some better one as soon as i saved up enough.

Them be a lot of keys in total Westman! Nice area though.
I went straight to 88 keys too so that I was future proofed. I got the Kawai ES8.
How do you get on with that keyboard stand and your knees?

Re: My starter setup
Thx
The stand isn´t a problem.
I have enough space to sit in front to get a comfortable position without hitting it.
i 1st tried it with the keys on the table but that was way to high - got my wrists cranked in some strange way - was not good.
saving up for a roland fp-10 now. maybe i´ll upgrade that later with a proper stand, but i need to find a place for that.
not enough room in that corner for it so the keyboard stand will have to do it for a while

Re: My starter setup
Nice setup.
Regarding the X Stand - I have long legs and do knock into those when I use them (at least the double braced X stands like yours). A z-stand or in my case, a furniture stand, keeps my knees out of trouble.

Re: My starter setup
I'm tall. A Z-stand is infinitely better... and more stable. And you can put the pedal unit in a more natural position.
Re: My starter setup - Upgraded now :)
Finally got some money and upgraded to a ROland FP-10 with a Z-Stand.
This thing is just awesome.

Final Update.
Added a monitor and a laptop stand. The laptop display was way to small

I am just about to have the same piano delivered - very excited!
I have a couple of quick questions - How does it work when you connect to the laptop? Can you use Bluetooth or is it wired? Also do the sound from the programme (on the laptop) also get played through the piano speakers (/headphones)?
Thanks
