After 2 years using the S88 Mk2, certain keys are « cliking » (kind of rattle).

So. Is the keybed of the S88 Mk3 the same than the Mk2 ?

    Answer from the AMA:

    The S88 MK3 uses the TP100 + Polyphonic Aftertouch, this is unique in the FATAR line up, and is the first widely available hammer action keyboard controller on the market. This feature, for all 3 key sizes, was a collaboration between NI and FATAR.

    No go for a S88 MK3, if the same keybed as MK2. It's very noise after a short time.

    Mine was 9 months, send it back to Native. Tempory solution but after a few months the same problems.

    It was made by Fatar just like the MKII, I'd imagine there have to be differences in the sensors since there is Polyphonic aftertouch this time around. More than likely the same keybed, if not very similar.

    Yes its the same TP100 key-bed with the Polyphonic aftertouch strip added, unfortunatly.
