Hi Chris,
I got me a Behringer too, and have ordered a set of keys on eBay, but
haven't received it, apparently because there was some trouble with the Post
Office here.
Concerning the rest of your message, I think the most important point is
not the instrument, whether uniform (isomorphic) or not, but one’s age. How
old are you? People trained on the piano from a very early age can pass to
the Janko keyboard very quickly (watch Salami playing the Lippens keyboard
on YouTube after only an hour) and presumably, go backwards whenever they
want.
People having learned an instrument in their youth but having left it in
the meantime for decades can come back to it thirty years later and even
make new progress, because they reactivate old habits and feelings in their
brain. I’ve seen this. The problem is with people trying to learn an
instrument after say 25 and even much later with no previous background at
all. Piano teachers say you can learn at any age, because they have an
interest in saying this. There are exceptions of course, but generally,
learning an instrument late in life is difficult, and getting more difficult
with decades. So my position is that the later you start, the more you may
benefit from choosing an isomorphic instrument, but even in this case, you
can’t expect fast progress without previous training. Hope this may help
you.
