Just another week to NAMM, and no more need for speculation :)
From the picture on the Clavia site it looks to me like the keys have been shortened considerably from the standard length to make the footprint smaller.
A couple of years ago I wrote Clavia suggesting they include piano sounds and multi-timbral capability in a two-manual organ which for me would be the ultimate package (just like what Suzuki Hammond did later).
Too bad that the SK-2 turned out a disappointment with its piano sounds, according to our friends here. I had been savoring the idea of going for one.
