1988, My first electronic 'keyboard' the Yamaha SHS-10 with FM sound and Midi-out. The first real midi keyboard was a Yamaha PSS480 which I bought in 1989. In 1992 I bought the Yamaha PSS790, with more options and better sound. Then my knowledge and interests into midi became more intense and in 1996 I bought the Roland E-66. It was very good but in 1997, I got myself a Roland E-96 which had much more options.

In 1999 a new Roland keyboard came out and it performed so well and could do so much more, that I got myself one: The Roland EM-2000. I have used it for a very long time with great pleasure. With the Roland / Edirol Sound Canvas SC-8820 module I can also use SCPOP, the Sound Canvas Pipe Organ Project.

The hughe Roland E-80 V2 Music WorkStation Arranger keyboard, I bought 2nd-hand in Dec. 2011: There are so many changes and new things to explore now! It will keep me busy for a long time. It's certainly the most versatile midi music keyboard I got sofar.
