Yamaha DX7.

Oh you mean… OK. The one on my 2008 unibody MacBook, which I likely put the most hours in on of any of them. Then the one on my ancient and lovely Thinkpad T240 — one of the most pragmatically delightful computers ever — and probably the N33SX I owned in 1992.

The keyboard on the M1 Max MBP is quite nice, too.

OMG thank you - as a musician, that's the first thing I think of when I see "favorite keyboard."

What, did Korg release an M1 Max? How did I miss it?

DX7 had a dreadful keybed. Midi CC only up to 100 (instead of 127), wtf?!

Fatar learned a lot of lessons from Yamaha in that regard.

Looking forward to adding an Expressive E Osmose to my rig soon ..
