Hello, I am a returning piano player having previously played for 8-12 years (8 years seriously 1 hour a day, 4 years just messing around every now and again).

My piano broke a few years ago and I just got round to buying a new one a few months back (Roland RD700nx). I play a mixture of music and am learning for the first time to improvise, arrange and compose pieces, which although I only started doing this yesterday I am thoroughly enjoying it already. Soon I will set up a you tube account to post videos of my amateur playing and improvisations

Welcome aboard. This forum has a wealth of info and great members too!

Welcome, be sure to let us know your youtube account, look forward to seeing some vids.

Neil.

Welcome WelshMikey. Hope you like your rd700-nx as much as I do mine.

Thank you for the welcome guys. I have exams coming up but after that I may post a few videos on youtube, I will post the link on this forum if it is allowed. ALthough im only an amateur and only started playing again 2-3 months ago I would eventually like to get subscribers on youtube as it motivates me to play when others enjoy listening =).

As for the RD700nx I am very happy with it, it has broken my bank account - that and all the other stuff that comes with owning one (headphones, studio monitors etc) but it was worth it. The key action is just lovely and layering 4 pianos I got a really nice sound for a few pieces. I find editing the piano sounds quite tricky though as one day I think it sounds fantastic and then other days I feel something is wrong with the sound I created.
