I'm not sure what sort of a budget you have to work with, but I would argue that a used Nord might be a good start for the organ and pianos, along with a smaller board dedicated for synth to cover some of the other 'stuff and things'. I think it would be a considerable challenge to reproduce the feel of Wright's tapestry of sounds with a single keyboardist in a live setting let alone a single keyboard. #2527880 - 09/16/13 10:26 AM Re: Pink Floyd - Which Keyboard?

Most of us don't feel that 'semi-weighted' is a good compromise, so we have two keyboards even if all the sounds are coming from one of them. The biggest limitation with a single keyboard is that you'll want hammer-action (aka fully weighted) for piano and Rhodes, unweighted for the others. The main bases to cover are: Hammond organ piano Moog synthesizer (mostly monophonic, but often multi-tracked in the studio) Mellotron With a smattering of polysynth (in later stuff), Rhodes, Farfisa, and Clavinet. According to, Wright used Kurzweil after 1987 to cover the bases other than piano and Hammond organ, so that would be a good starting point.

K2000/K2500 - Pink Floyd: Patch that simulates Pink Floyd's 'On The Run' synth patch. Kurzweil Zone Kurzweil release the PC3LE6 for the budget concious. I love the Kurzweil 2500 for it’s playability, ROM based sounds and. Richard Wright The Kurzweil K2500 is know as 'the Pink Floyd Synth' for has been used by wright since it cames out.

The drums for 'The Becoming' were also programed on a K2xxx series. The guitar for 'Hurt' is the acoustic guitar patch on the on the orchestral rom. Is there a single keyboard which would allow me to reproduce their sound? What I would really like to do is spend a couple of years getting to grips with the music of Pink Floyd. I would be really grateful for your thoughts.

I have had a Yamaha Clavinova for the last 15 years but would now like to spread my electronic wings. Hi I am new to this forum and new to the world of Workstations and Arranger keyboards.
