But on a serious note, you will not find a MIDI controller that will come close to the feel of a great piano. You'll just find some MIDI controllers that feel better than most.
Yep. My ex-gf ended up getting one of these and it was not bad at all! She was also much more on how much it actually felt than just sounded (since we could use Ivory or whatever for sounds). Pretty killer controller. Next best thing to using a Pianobar imho.
