Modern Keyboards seem to inhibit that, but now you can actually get old/cheap/free keyboards at prices that you might put on a decent bet, so why not get in there and see what happens? So many of us complain that music and sound is getting boring and predictable - I certainly find the increasing power of technology has a big "so what?" factor into sounds and beats. I reckon I'll open up my old psr keyboard, chuck out the speakers, bodge some midi outputs on it, a line output, maybe put chorus or multi-effects across the outputs - it's worth nowt, so I might as well go for it. should be good for jamming. doing odd things to my guitars ad keyboards is one of the things I remember enjoying when I was younger, nothing radical, setting up the action on my fender rhodes, opening up my farfisa and seeing what lit up and how the sound changed when you touched bits.
