I used to play the d1 a few months, but I was not really happy with it. You have to push the keys really hard to get a nice sound , much harder than my 100 years old mechanical piano. And only a few sounds were really nice for solo playing. I think the key focus of this piano is choral accompaniment and worship. I sold it and bought a yamaha cp 73. With the yamaha I felt in love now.
If you don't need speakers or usb midi, I think Korg D1 is best. If you need those things go for Kawai... I think the Yamaha sounds the worse and doesn't have as good a keybed as the others.
I own this one, the piano is not good at all. I have owned several expensive digital pianos and returned them all except for the Casio px560. However the best I have is the DEXIBEL vivo sx7 sound module. I play that with the Casio px560 and the sound is amazing! When you play the sound of both together it is even better than the dexibell which is the best I have heard.
Nice video. Does the Midi port work if connected to Arturia software? Thank you Bel video. La porta Midi funziona se collegata ai software Arturia? Grazie
I was keen on this piano, but after watching this video have second thoughts, piano sounds are ok but all others sounds sound like 'klick and klack, waste of time- would never use them.
It's not always easy to judge according to a video but from what i could hear, this piano doesn't sound as good as the Korg SV1 or the Crumar Seven, for example.
Derek Gayle if you read my last message well, i wasn't judging. I was saying that both the Crumar Seven and the Korg SV1 have acoustic piano, rhodes, wurlitzer and organ sounds and then i asked which one seems to be the best.
Oh, god, another keyboard with the same stock bread and butter sounds being packaged and resold again. How many times are manufacturers going to repackage the same thing over and over again for 20+ years. I suppose it is selling, but don't they wonder why not so much anymore? Why would you buy this and not buy Keyscape by Omnisphere Spectrasonics which sounds 100X better and can do so much more?
It is much better than one one had to do before, lug around a rack case full of sound modules just so you could get different sounds through MIDI. Look, I get it. If you are a gigging musician and you just need bread and butter sounds, then a keyboard like this makes sense. However, you could buy just about any workstation keyboard out of the closet over the last 20+ years and you would find these types of sounds on it, what is the point of releasing another keyboard of bread and butter sounds. Manufacturers should be focused on innovation in the hardware space. Instead, they repackage the same keyboard every year/two years and pretend it is "something new". Don't be fooled, look at what is possible and how much innovation can happen at a software level. So, then you could have the power of 10 workstations with a laptop, keyboard controller, why would you not go that route?
@@bunker8digitallabs i own plenty of vsts , workstations and Even a modular. Believe me ,sometimes You need something basic with no distractions , easy to Carry and with piano keys. Not everyone likes omnisphere , is not for everybody. And if You think this is another repetition , You have not researched the actual portable 88 key market.
