Hey everyone — I’m planning to buy an 88-key piano / stage piano / keyboard and I’d really appreciate advice from people with experience. Here’s what I’m looking for:
• 88 keys with hammer-action or the most realistic piano feel possible
• Mainly for playing classical/modern piano pieces (soundtrack-style pieces, piano covers, calm melodic tracks — not jazz or heavy electronic stuff)
• It will sit right next to my PC, so I need it to work well both standalone and when connected to a DAW
• I don’t really need hundreds of synth sounds — I mainly want the best possible piano feel and piano sound
• Budget is around ~1200 USD.

I’ve been considering models like the Roland FP-30X, Kawai ES-120, or other digital pianos, but I’m not sure what gives the best balance of key feel, piano sound quality, and overall flexibility because I also own Fl studio. I saw Roland RD-88 EX SET Digital stage piano Black and Roland Juno-D8 Synthetizator are good ones too.

I have a roland juno ds 88 which i think fitd the budget? Idk what it costs is usd but it would fit that purpose nicely and it has a nice feeling to the weighted keys
