Recomend me a 88 keys...

digital piano/organ/harpsichord ... preferable big just like as studio piano or a console piano...

As far as stage pianos go, I have a Yamaha P-90 which has a gorgeous piano sound and a killer action. Dead affordable too. You may have to go secondhand on one because they've phased them out now (replaced with CP-33 or something). The harpsichord also sounds rad. I'm just a little sketch on the organs... Are you looking for church organ vibes or a Hammond sound? The P-90 has two very good church organ patches, but the Hammond is, well, crap. And all of it's non-tweakable, obviously, since it's a stage piano and not a synth workstation.

My advice in this kind of deal would always be to get a stage piano and a separate digital organ.

I'm currently looking at an M-Audio Pro Keys 88 stage piano for myself. As my budget is limited its the only weighted-keys option at the moment and includes the most popular emulated keyboard sounds (Rhodes, Wurlitzer, Hammond). Thankfully it doesn't waste memory with lame brass samples or church organ sounds I'll never use.

Just my two cents

I liked that option, that piano seems nice, anyone with any experience with it

[wartree]

but i would be more interested in a really electric piano, not a synth, like true strings and signal captation pickups or something

[wartree]

But Thanks glimmer your adivice was good, i am realy digging that keyboard

[wartree]

i Am not going to buy a piano now, i just wanted to know more, and i am fascinated with vintage electric pianos and organs, but in the end maybe I will buy an acoustic, to play , and to serve as furniture, instead some vase from china or something, i ´doubt i will get good at it cause i am now a bit too old, not and adult though, but learn and play arround is good enough

Dude, digital piano != electric piano.

A digital piano is a piano that makes sounds in the same way a computer does.

An electric piano is an electromechanical instrument - like a piano with pickups.

Be clear on which one you want.

I have heard really bad things about the action on the M-Audio board.

Likewise.

I found the M-audio to be pretty mushy too.

It basically seemed to capture the weak points of weighted keys without getting the strong ones. The few I've gotten to play have generally has the slow squishy feel of, well...badly faked weighted keys. They don't seem to have that crispness like a key with a hammer mechanism would have.

I've played Fatar controllers that felt pretty real. And one that said General something-or-other that was okay. But really I haven't found one that was worth screaming about.

Pretty much the only electronic keyboard that I've liked recently was a Yamaha CP300. But it costs waaaaaay too much for me.

I actually can afford an Alesis QS8, since they seem to go for about $500 on ebay, but I've never played one. I'd really like to know what they feel like. Unfortunately there are none to try out.
