Ah, I am not sure, but on my Juno -stage you can change the response of the keyboard, so I would look for a unit where you can change the response the way you want it. I have semi-weighted keys and in a way it is more like weighted keys like a piano but really not the same at all as full-weighted keys like on some of the piano type units, but I also have light, medium heavy type pressure I can change in the menu of the synth and make it like my old synth. And light is probably what you are talking about, so you would have to get into the master menu and change the action of the keyboard on the unit, and I know Roland Juno Gi or Di probably has that the same as Juno Stage, other ones I do not know about. (but you would have to check on that also).
Better to ask maybe someone who works in a place that would know (not guitar c).
Not the only play on-line but a place that knows what it is doing.

http://www.sweetwater.com/c510--Keyboards_Synthesizers Well there are different categories there and perhaps you should look around there.
Not the only place on-line just one of several places.
http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/JunoDi/ I don't know if you will find one that is not semi-weighted keys nowadays, but like I said the velocity on my JunoStage can be light, medium or heavy so to me on Light it is the same thing.
I would check out everything first or talk to someone who knows, or look at the manual for the unit first to make sure.
Otherwise, there may be some other unit, but looking through all of it is what you may have to do and check on any of it.
Those Rolands are only 61 key keyboard, where the JunoStage was a 76 key keyboard, but not sold anymore and others would say it was not like it was suppose to be, but I would say that it is not mentioned in the manual that copying patches to the temp area is only a two step deal - get up the patch you want to copy and use the Write button and confirm it and put it in the temp area where you can change it around and Exec the copy (thus two steps to make sure you want to copy it in the first place - nowhere is that in the manual, and it is easy.
??
But there are other keyboards but for a 76 key keyboard, I suppose those would cost more, unless you can find a used one somewhere, but then it is used and has to be tested also.
Obviously I do not recommend any of the units because...................................
And after all of that, forgot to mention, that perhaps you can send it back to Yahama or a dealer, and get the keyboard fixed. They do do that, even if it is Roland and their keyboards and the keyboard was made in 1991. Obviously I have about 5 keys on the keyboard that do not work but I found out how to fix those on the Internet, the thing is finding a place to work on it, and take it apart and put it back together again which may be a real chore,but for the right amount of money, I pretty sure Roland would fix my old synth up for the price. The deal is - is it worth it??
