Gene-
About 7-8 months ago, I bought a Casio WK-3200. It's amazing! The feel
of the keys alone is so different from the Version 2 CX-3 that I claim as my
main organ (alongside a Hammond M-102 & Leslie 760)... I love the Korg's
action but I get a BIG kick from the Casio's also.
What attracted me to it... just all the bells/whistles they can put into
one of these things these days. A multi-track recorder... really high-end
(for the price) sounds... and... DRAWBARS! Even the synth "function" is great,
with several waveforms available. To be fair, I don't think the organ sounds
are dead-on or anything near, but for the price, they certainly move! I
have yet to tweak the "rotary" functions, that is if tweaks are even possible (I
have YET to study that manual sufficiently). Have you altered the "rotary"
at all? What did you think? Again, for the price, the WK-line keyboards are
worthwhile.
In late 1982, I bought the Casiotone MT-40, I imagine shortly after it
was introduced. 22 sounds... it was a real blast for its' day!
Enjoy and best wishes - Adam
