Thank you for your comment !!☺

Thank you! I like the CK series so much that I want the CK88, which can play 88 keys, in addition to the CK61. I think it's a great stage keyboard ♪🎹

I agree with you!

Thank you!!☺

Thank you for your comment!☺

Thank you! I am very happy to hear that you love my performance. Please continue to watch my videos♪

@@pf_masa will do !

Thank you so much !!!☺

ありがとうございます♪　鍵盤のタッチは、打ち下ろす力ではなく、指を下ろすときの速度でコントロールするのがポイントです。そのためには、毎日の継続した練習が重要となりますね☺

Thank you so much !!☺

Thank you so much !!!☺

ありがとうございます！　本当にそうですね♪　CK61を買ってから一か月経ちますが、とても良い楽器だと思います🎹

I am very happy with your comment. Thank you ☺

Thank you so much !!☺

Thank you so much !!!

Thank you for your wonderful comment!! And please have a wonderful CK61 life🎹✨

Thanks for your comment !!☺

Thank you for your comment. You're right, the CK61 seems like a model for people who play in bands.

@@pf_masa Gracias por tu respuesta ¡Sigue tocando el piano para todos!

Thanks !!

Thank you for your comment.

@@pf_masa beautiful playing Sir 🙂

@@germanshepherdlover2613 Thank You so much !!!☺

Thank you for your comment. You're right, I feel the CK61 is excellent for compact 61-note keyboards. I've owned a Roland FP-5 and it's a nice instrument, and it's very comfortable to play. I think the FP-E50 is a good instrument.

I used to have a MODX6 too. As you said, it would be nice if MODX also had the sound of an upright piano.☺

「スピーカー搭載モデルだと鍵盤がしっかり響くので」→まさにそのとおりですね♪　YAMAHAの61鍵盤でスピーカー内蔵のシンセ系・ステージキーボード系は、昔のEOS B200以降の記憶はないですね。おっしゃる通り、スピーカー内蔵が標準になっていくといいですね😀

Thank you for your comment ♪ I understand that Yamaha does not make instruments with an 88-key keyboard and a piano touch with light key pressure. The instrument you are looking for may not be in the CK series. I hope you find a piano that fits you♪🎹

いつもありがとうございます♪　CP88が一番欲しい電子ピアノなのですが、それがコンパクトな大きさで操作階層も深くない、CK61のような機種を実は待っていました♪　追って、紹介動画や比較動画を作成していきますね🎹

そうです♪ 3/17発売になったキーボードですね。実際、触れてみて直感的で分かりやすく，CK61のキーボードはとても弾きやすいです♪　CK88も内容が同じで、スピーカーも内蔵していますし、88鍵を探している人にはとても良い選択肢だと思います🎹😀

Thank you! I've played an 88-key model"CK88", and I want one too!☺

Thanks for your comment! In this video, main 1×2 “Dm7, Em7, A7” and main 2 “Fm7⇒Bb7⇒Ebmaj7⇒Abmaj7⇒Dm7⇒G7” are repeated♪☺

@@pf_masa Thank you very much for answering brother, it is very kind. A big greeting 🇦🇷

Thank you so much! The built-in speaker has the ability to be used as a monitor for yourself, but I think it can be used for a little play with friends. 　When placing it on the table, it is important to set the table EQ. Also, if you turn up the sound of the Rhodes piano at the table, the instrument may make a buzzing sound.

@@pf_masa Thank you!

Thank you! The main reason I chose the CK61 is its compactness. Next week, I will post a video of playing a piano keyboard (88 keys) connected to the CK61 via MIDI. Please look forward to it ☺

@@pf_masa 楽しみにしています。

RefaceYCやCPシリーズの音が気に入っていて、実はこの半年、買おうか検討していたのですが、RefaceYCのオルガンの音が入っていて、CPの音の一部も入ったCK61が出たので、即決でした♪ 　CFX Monoという音色がありますが、音の広がりは無くなりますが、音のキャラクターはあまり変わらないと感じます。 　ちなみに小さな現場やバンドでの演奏は、ピアノの定位を広げすぎると音がまとまらなくなるので、Monoで送る（または定位を狭めて送る）ことが多いですね♪

I learned the feeling of this performance from a local musician at a live house. thank you!☺

Thank you! Right now, I'm creating a comparison video of the CK61's Fender Rhodes sound and the CT-S1, CT-S1000V, FANTOM-06, RefaceCP, and PSR-E373 piano and Rhodes sounds. It will be released soon, so please look forward to it♪

@@pf_masa that is great!

I'm using the factory CFX preset sounds. I feel like that setting is the most balanced and doesn't have too many effects, which is good ♪ Thank you!☺

Thank you! I have owned MODX6 for half a year. The key action is different from MODX6. I prefer the CK61.

It uses the FSB (Future System Basic) keybed, which I think was/is used in their SX arranger keyboards. It allows for more expressive play compared to the MODX which is designed for synth style riffs.

Thank you! I had MODX6 in the past. I really like the CK61 for its weight, size, and built-in speakers😊

@@pf_masa So what do you think?is the CK61 gives greater advantages than MODX6?I guess I prefer to have both 😁

@@ochisalat If I have a place to keep them, I would love to have both 😁

The CK61 keyboard is very light, but I have no trouble playing the piano notes. thank you!

赤いデザインは魅力的ですけどね☺♪

I think the sound quality is necessary and sufficient rather than excellent.

Thanks for your comment!

Thank you for your comment. I would also like to compare the S1000V, which has the same piano tone as the CT-S500, and the CK61.

Thank you for the question. I don't think it's possible with the CK61 to assign bass and piano sounds separately to the left and right. Or I don't currently know how.

Yes, we can apply modulation effects with the foot pedal. It is possible by selecting ”Setting - Controller - Foot Pedal 2 - Assign - Modulation(1)”. Unfortunately, there are no 76-key or 73-key versions of the CK series. I would also like a version with 76 keys.☺

ありがとうございます♪　CKシリーズは音源を追加することができないです…

Thanks for your comment!

The video of Musictrackjp has a better sound quality than this video, so I can get a better view of the soundquality. But I also listened to the sounds of the CP-series and they definatily sound deeper and more dynamic.

I play only with the CK61's built-in speaker. Recording is done by connecting CK61's LINEOUT to ZOOM's L-12.

Yes♪ There are saxophones, trumpets, pan flutes and musettes. I also uploaded a video of all 363 tones, so please take a look if you like. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6NlX-PJVMCw.html

I rather like the CK61's FSB keyboard because it's more comfortable to play. The CT-S1 is also a good keyboard, but I think the spring force is a little strong🎹 Merry Christmas! ! ☺

My CT-S1 arrived just a few days ago, and I really like it's sounds, I can see now why you like the E Piano sound :), it not only sounds great but also feels really nice to play, significantly easier to controll loudness-dynamics--wise too (compared to the Stage Piano patch at least) it's a great keyboard patch. I am still getting used to the CT-S1 light action, but I discover a little "cheating" how can I make it somewhat less "occasional-loud-notes-jump-out". 1.) I press and hold the Function button 2.) I press the lowest E note 2 times (while still holding pressed the Function button) 3.) a release the Function button This applies a "mellow EQ", and it cuts out some frequencies that are mostly in the fortissimo audio samples, the beauty/realism aspect of the sound reduces a little bit, but the experience of the touch/control/playability increases considerably. This of course doesn't change the velocity programming, but it still gives the impression/feeling/touch/experience of a little bit more controllable sound. Another tip you might like too ia that if you need a piano case for both the CT-S1, CT-S1000V and CK61, then you should check out the video on the "Piano Tone" channel titled "Yamaha SC-DE61 Gig Bag (Yamaha CK61)". This is the exact title so you can just copy it into the RU-vid search bar and it should pop up as a top result. I hope this helps, and thank you so much for you reply/help! :)

(PS. If you want to change back to the original EQ (from the "mellow EQ") instes of pressing the lowest E note 2 times, press the lowest E note, and then the lowest C note.)

@@kaisfp That's right, the S1's electric piano sound is so comfortable to play! Thanks for sharing the information on EQ settings! I haven't done this setting yet, so I'll try it out.☺

Thanks for your comment. There is no arpeggiator and no musical accompaniment.🎹

@@pf_masa Thank you Mr. 🙏

It can trigger a musical accompaniment from an mp3 on a usb stick though and you can set a different mp3 for different saved presets.

「エレピとDX系は全色レビュー」→承知しました♪　ピアノ系・エレピ（DX含む）のSoundDemoもレビューに入れていきたいと思います。 実は、88鍵盤はまだ弾いたことが無いのですよね・・・　私としては、GHS鍵盤は弾き心地の点で、さらに良くなるといいなあと思っています。

@@pf_masa さんへ お手数おかけしますが楽しみにしていますのでよろしくお願いします。 ｐシリーズもそうですが今のヤマハのデジピのエレピにはベル成分多めのRHODESとベル成分多めのFMエレピ音色しか搭載されていなくて いわゆる王道のソフトRHODESとDXEP（DX7の11番のあれ）は入っていないのでエレピ重視していると買いにくいんですよね。唯一それが入っているのが27000円のピアジェーロっていう現実がいかにエレピが欲しければYC CPかモンタージュ系を買えと言わんばかりで。CKがそういう状況を打開するきっかけになるのか気になります。 じゃあYC CPモンタージュ買えばいいじゃんってことですがそもそもそのクラスはすでに何台か使っていると買い換えにはプラスアルファが欲しい それが内蔵スピーカーというわけです。やはり外部モニターか内蔵かは大きな差がありますよね。 ピアジェーロも使っていますが実はこれが音の鳴りと鍵盤の振動はピカイチで音色もエレピは申し分ないんです。しかし鍵盤が速びきはうまい人しか許さないシビアな鍵盤なのが悩ましいです。3センサーだったらいいのですが。あと同時発音数がレイヤーだとたまに音切れするので少ないです。 でも寝室やキッチンのお供に最高。 というわけで個人的にピアジェーロの高級版が欲しいのですが今回のCKは果たして・・・スピーカーの振動はP125あたりに近くて振動するけどビンビンに感じるほどではないかな？CK61はピアジェーロなみに振動するか？FSB鍵盤はFS鍵盤とフィーリングが似ているのか？も気になっています。

共感できる点が多くありますね♪　CK61のピアノ系音色、スピーカー、鍵盤のテーマに絞ったコンテンツを作ることが皆さんのお役に立てるかもしれないと思いました。順次検討していきます🎹

The feel of the CK61's FSB keyboard is very comfortable.☺

The CK61 can be connected to a DAW via USB by downloading and installing the latest Steinberg USB Driver from the YAMAHA website. It is necessary to check the suitable environment on the Yamaha website.

@@pf_masa I see! Thank you very much! I like your performance and the feeling of the video so I subscribed :)

@@user-zs2gg6ri5d thank you so much !! I'm also thinking of connecting CK61 to Logic in the future.☺

​@@pf_masaCK61 itself work like vst??? Really? No need virtual instrument again like kontakt?

@@reinnner5964 The CK61 tone generator is recognized as an external MIDI tone generator by the DAW. I haven't used kontakt yet, but virtual instruments are attractive because they allow you to create in detail.☺

I am very happy to read your wonderful comments. thank you!☺

The price of CK61 is 99,000 (JPY) in Japan. thank you!!☺

I can comment on the CK61 and the MODX6 that I once owned. MODX is better if you want to create deep synth sounds. On the other hand, if you want easy layering of preset sounds, compactness, and built-in speakers, the CK is the way to go. If you give top priority to what you want to do, I think you can lead a happy musical instrument life☺♪

@@pf_masa Thank you for your comment sir...!

Your opinion is helpful. thank you! The CK series doesn't seem to have 73-key or 76-key series yet...

You bought this, too. I also want the speakers to be improved.

コメントありがとうございます♪　確かに本物は揺らぎ（うなりの山）がありますよね。山の数は調律師によっても違います。ピアノは実に奥が深い楽ですね🎹

是非是非！☺私もCK88はまだ弾いたことがないので、機会あれば是非弾いてみたいと思っています🎹

Thank you for your important information. The CK61 I bought is smooth, and the key comes off so easily that you can say that there is no resistance at all. Therefore, although it is a light touch keyboard, I feel that it is very comfortable to play solo piano. The velocity curve is also smooth, and I've never had the experience of suddenly playing at full volume. I think you are correct in contacting Yamaha. I sincerely hope that it will be improved as soon as possible.
