- Would this work on any Kurzweil model? or only the PC-series? I have an old Kurzweil Midiboard, and the sound module i have has only crappy sounds... i can ofcourse hokk it up with the computer, and use the midi, but i'm looking for a new module...

Haagi,

This Kurzweil PC-R is a midi module which can be controlled from any midi keyboard and incorporated into any keyboard rig. Its not an expander that can only be used with Kurzweil keyboards. This basically contains all the sounds & FX of the PC2 keyboard. Its a good module for providing your essential keyboard sounds, e.g. Piano, organ, EP, some synth sounds, editing sounds are not as in depth as the K series.So if you want a real deep programmable synth then you may want to look at something else.

Any suggestions? I looking for a module with nice sounds included, but at the same time i'd like to be able to create them myself..

In the future I will definetly buy a new synth, so i may not buy a module at all, but I'm just looking..

Btw. Any suggestions on a synth with 76/88 weighted keys, nice sounds and the most needed extra materials?? Wich won't cost way too much..

I think that the roland Fantom XR is the best rack out there for a good price. Loads of features, so check that one out. Also the Yamaha Motif rack, you might be able to get a Korg Triton rack for a good price now. There are so many good modules out there, it all really comes down to money and what you want to do with it, e.g. part of a larger rig or a sole module that does it all.

As far as 76/88 note synths, you should check the other gear threads here at there are a few which covers this topic. Again it all comes down to money and what you want to get out of the instrument.
