Title: Looking for a full size keyboard with Reds or Blacks. Suggestions?
Post by: Boyiee on Wed, 03 August 2011, 20:16:17
So after playing on my clears from deck for so long, and with my new filco, I want to go with something else for my main every-day keyboard.

I'm thinking I want reds or blacks, although I do like blues, but I also want to try something different. I don't want to spend a fortune on a filco because being my everyday keyboard, it is going to get some use and probably get roughed up a little.

Gonna miss the illumination from the Deck, but I think I can live without it.

Any ideas on something not-filco-priced that I can use for everyday, all-around use? I do not want browns, that is for sure. Gotta have a numpad on it as well, obviously.

edit: I know reds aren't cheap, and Deck may have blacks, but looking for options anyway. If it is worth it then of course I'd spend the money.

I also agree - get the Filco linear with red switches.
