I no longer play for a church, but when I did, I used a Korg Karma and a Yamaha Motif XS 76 more than any.  I thought the Yamaha Motif XS was the best sounding board that I had.  I compared it to Rolands that I had(Fantom and Juno Gi), and other Korgs as well as Casios.  It simply had the best pianos in my opinion.  I also liked the operating system and the number of controls that were on the face of the board.  It was very well constructed,  built like a tank.  For some reason, though, when I played it for extended periods and/or over several days, it caused me to have finger pain.  Since I had more than one board, that was no problem.  I kept the Yamaha for seven years.

I sold it and bought a Roland BK 9 which is  a very nice board and which is the only board that I now own.  It is an arranger, but I would put the sound and features up against the best boards  available now.  A person looking for a 76 key arranger type board that matched the sounds and quality of the best work stations would certainly gain by checking it out.  The operating system is kind of odd, but I really like the board.


If I were still playing, and money allowed, I would want a Yamaha XF 76 or 88 as a first choice, and a Roland (FA 88 )board as a second choice.

Yamaha S90 and the Baby Grand (I actually rather play the baby grand instead of the keyboard).

We have a Yamaha MOX8 at our main campus and a MOXf8 at the new campus.
We also have an older Kurz PC88 down in the youth room.

I usually play the Hammond, but I'll play the Roland XP-80 every now and then.

An XP-80 was my first keyboard.  I sold it and bought a Korg Triton LE.  I have REGRETTED selling that thing ever since the money exchanged hands.  I STILL am on the search for one  ;D
