Have you heard any word about Yamaha replacing the P125 with a new keyboard? i.e. the P115 got replaced by the P125, etc. Thanks!

@winterheat Год назад

maybe you can make a video for (1) what if you want most realistic keys, which piano to get... (probably FP-30X)... and (2) if you want good sound right from the speakers, which piano to get (probably XE20 and CT-S1 and which is better?) (3)... maybe something else... like best piano sound? (probably the DGX670 CFX sound... and then the XE20 Steinway sound)

Thanks for the vids, mate! Appreciate that you play the same pieces, as a beginner it helps me get some baseline differentiation between the tones. I ended up paying the little extra for the FP-30X, as much as I like acoustic Yamaha pianos and drums, Roland seems to have the digital/electric/however-you'd-like-to-call-it segment on lockdown. My e-drums are also Roland, fantastic instruments.

About 9 months ago I tried a P-125 for the first time. Its GHS action could be better, but felt much nicer than the GHS on the P-45, which I also tried (again) at the same time. So guys, don't judge the P-125 action by the inferior implementaion on the P-45.

@rebeccaappleton5269 Год назад

Thank you! The last digital keyboard I read had weighted keys and a great touch was an enormous disappointment to me as someone who played an analogue piano for years. I bought but could never get into using the thing, even though I'm really keen to explore different sounds. Looking into making another purchase now. Details like the mechanism and realistic texture on the keys are things I'm realising, as I watch this, that I never appreciated but made all the difference. Great review, many thanks!

I always prefer the Sound of the Roland. I like Yamaha, Korg and Alesis, I own all four and find the Roland has the sound most like a good grand piano. My old Roland HP330 has died and I need to replace it. I have used workstations and wouldn't mind having some of that on a piano but don't want to sacrifice the piano sound. Any recommendations? Love your videos.

Great video Jeremy I love your channel! I had gotten my first piano, the Casio cdp-s350 because of your videos, and im thinking of upgrading to the roland FP-60X, mainly for recording purposes. Would you say its a good idea or are other options more viable? My main concern is tone, being able to customize my sound more, and good recording audio. My cdp does fairly well but after a year and I half I can hear the difference between my keyboard and other higher end pianos so I'm thinking of switching. Anyways keep up the good work brother!

@yiiyatschan1395 3 года назад

Agreed. I own an FP-30 as well. I tried the P-125 and to my dismay, it was still leagues below the FP-30 despite being a later release. The thing that stands out to me about the FP-30X other than the increased sounds and polyphony is definitely the ability to stream songs via bluetooth, which is what I've always wanted to do with my FP-30 but is unfortunately not possible.

When you said the yamaha is more nuanced, what exactly did you mean? Is it more or less muddy sounding than the roland? Thanks!

@howardklein2450 3 года назад

The FP-30X adds 1/4" lineouts which weren't available on the prior FP30 I believe. I've used the P125 the last few years and think it is a strong improvement over the prior models (P95, P105 etc.) It sounds very clear and the speakers are improved. I am well aware many people do prefer the key action on the FP30 series- and do not dispute that. However, the P125 is around 7 pounds lighter than the Roland. I think both boards are very good for their price point and it depends on the user. i.e. I am willing to sacrifice some of the action to have something more portable.

The Yamaha P125 piano sound matches very closely to my Yamaha Grand and I do prefer it to the Roland. I hear an strange, phasey wavering sound with the Roland acoustic piano sample but the other sounds definitely sound better on the Roland. I wish the Yamaha had the Roland action...

@JeremySee 3 года назад

Sound preference has much to do with psychoacoustics

@3xperiment8 3 года назад

Yamaha has a very beautiful melodic sound Indeed. Roland sounds more realistic though. About the keys, I dunno what people see in this stiff keys on Roland. They are heavier than a real acoustic piano.

@Zoco101 3 года назад

I had a similar experience with the FP50. Didn't respond at all how I expected, so I spent a bit more and bought the P-255 instead. As Jeremy says, it can be down to psychoacoustics. But think about what "supernatural" means. Literally: Over-natural. Exaggerated? Roland may be compensating for lost sound that pure sampling doesn't capture, or it may be trying to be too clever. Dunno. Some of my favourite pianists play/played Roland RD pianos, and the early ones weren't so "realistic", but they made them sound fantastic. Would I have enjoyed playing their pianos? Dunno. I try not to get too hung up on issues of realism. You either enjoy playing a piano or you don't, and you can't tell just by playing a few notes, or by hearing someone else play it.

@@Elazarko I can't understand why manufacturers don't make more 73-note pianos (and even 61-note pianos) with proper weighted actions. There's some kind of snobbery involved it seems. As I mentioned in another post, touring classical musicians pay to have 88-note weighted pianos reduced to even fewer than 73 notes, so they can get them on aircraft and practise in their hotel rooms. I have a sprung 61-note keyboard for special situations and for effects. I've done gigs where an 88-note piano simply doesn't fit on the stage, so we couldn't use the piano on those gigs.
