Do all digital keyboards have noisy hammer Keys?

For this topic, I'm only referring to 88-key models. Do all of them have noisy hammer-action keys? I'm a pianist myself, so real pianos hardly have a sound emenating from the keys themselves: you hear purely the music when you play.

But when it comes to computer music and using these fat workstations slash synthesizers, do all their hammer-action keys for this breed of digital piano, are they all this noisy? Whatever instrument or note I play, the thump hammer-action keys (on digital pianos, workstations, and synthesizers) overwhelms what goes into my ears.

Just wondered if there were an 88-key workstation that was different than the rest, that's all. I've been through Korg, Yamaha, and M-Audio keyboards now, and I'm thinking all digital hammer-action keys are like this .................

keys always clunking
keys always heavy
real piano keys aren't like that ...

Depends on your opinion of "noisy". Weighted keys emulate real piano feel fairly well in my opinion. Same time, my brain works kinda wierd. If a piano is even the slightest bit off tune it makes my teeth hurt(seriously somthing about the sound of thepiano wire being tapped closest I can relate is how some people act when a chalkboard is scratched. It also bugs me when silverware brushes together, go figure)and I don't even read music, I play by ear.

Somehow I got off topic, but, yeah...if weighted keys don't cut it for ya, you might wanna start saving for that Baldwin.
