That was not truly apples to apples. You can compare a Nord White Grand (Steinway) to a YC CFX Grand (Yamaha) pianos and say one is better sounding than the other without personal bias... It's apples to orange, because I prefere the sound of the Yamaha pianos over the Steinway's, but you may have the opposite prerference. But even worse, when they swapped jacks even the White Grand didn't sound very good compared to when he first played it through the other jacks. So not only are they completely different pianos, but the jacks/PA mixer is not the same for both... Plus the PA/Mixer guys was making changes and messing up...I could hear it changing as they were playing. Horrible comparison! Worst I've ever seen done. Is this supposed to be a professional legit comparison??? "I'm celebrating a bit"..!? I had to laugh at that, because he thinks he won the piano battle, when it was a complete sh!te show!! Had they compared the Nord White Grand to the YC Hamburg Grand with working jacks EQ'd properly on both sides (& and decent sound person), it would have been more apples to apples... Or had a more Yamaha sounding piano patch on the Nord against the YC CFX.

I owned the YC 88 for four years, and I have owned and preferred YAMAHA keyboards for years. I bought a Nord Stage 4, and let me tell you I can't go back to the YC. Whatever Nord has done with their sound is very pleasing and fulfilling to my ears. I have never enjoyed playing a keyboard as much as I have enjoyed the Nord. Listeners have also noticed the perceived upgrade in sound quality. At the end of the day, much of this debate is about preference (and economics given the big price difference), and for a guy who has owned both boards I find the Nord superior.

Not mentioned: The YC has a built-in DI, submixer and audio interface with iOS compatibility.

You could buy a YC88 and a Prophet 6 - a killer live rig - for significantly less than a NS4.

@existentbeing9678 6 месяцев назад

@AynsleyGreen 6 месяцев назад

Does your YC sound as compressed as Mikes did?

@AynsleyGreen 5 месяцев назад

@@anotheryoutube4635 Not sure, the Yamaha piano sound is more focused, the Nord piano is broader, maybe that's what Mike was referring to. For that reason, I like the Yamaha better on a crowded bandstand, the Nord better in isolation.

@cliffadams9040 5 месяцев назад

VERY interesting comparison. Jack heard the compressed piano sound; I hadn't noticed - Good One! But you have to compress the piano anyway for both recording and live performance. When you play a Steinway - a loud piano - on studio recordings, you 'squeeze' it hard because the instrument is built to fill a concert hall without amplification. For electronic pianos you use compression to play it through a sound system or to make it manageable in a recorded mix, and, well, the YC-88 is 'pre-compressed' - perhaps not a bad thing. However, what I REALLY NEED to hear NEXT is how Mike MOVES/LIFTS his 62-pound Montage M8 without having chronic back pain! Thanks. Keep doing what you're doing - you're a treasure. I wish you continued success in the new year.

And again, I’m talking EPs and pianos only I’m not talking about versatility. Thanks a bunch…cheers from Boston 😊🥂

@abwdoc 6 месяцев назад

This “duel” was so cool…and fun to watch. You guys seem to get along so well. Please do more of these. Even though I’m a big NORD fan, it was good to hear both players playing to the strengths of these keyboards. Maybe it’s my bias, but I think the organs and rotary effects of the Nord are unbeatable. Being a old fossil that gigged with both Vox and Farfisa, I would have liked to hear these organs without the vibratos (they both sound like the chorus vibrato was on on both instruments, which neither of the original instruments had. Both sound great…but I love my Nord Stage 4 88….which I’ll never part with before Nord releases the Nord 5 88. One thing about the Yamaha is that funky little throw switch that they use for the rotary effect…just feels kind of cheap, unlike the rest of the instrument.

@ismaelesteban5037 5 месяцев назад

Nord's organ unbeatable? I have NS4 compact and the organ is the worst of all the clones I have had (Crumar Mojo, Hammond SK1, SK Pro...). Nord is very good at pianos and synths, as well as being unbeatable in terms of being a full keyboard, but the organ is dated and needs an update now. Anyone who has touched a Crumar Mojo (which is quite a bit cheaper) knows what I'm saying.

@cliffadams9040 5 месяцев назад

I'm a fossil, too - played the Farfisa in the 60s.

Loved the video, used to have a Nord Stage and even though solo sounds great, being too bassy sometimes was an issue and had to EQ it down in the mixer. One big point in favor of the YC88 is the keybed, it's just miles ahead way way better than what Nord are using. You'd have to get he big Nord Grand to compete in feeling.

@AynsleyGreen 6 месяцев назад

I went in to the shop fully intending to buy a Nord Grand for its action - I left with the YC, it's that good

@BillVincent 6 месяцев назад

THIS. I have always disliked the action on weighted key Nord instruments. It may be a personal preference, but MY personal preference is that I don't like them. I've actually had some (non-keyboardists) try to tell me I'm wrong because "Nord is the best" according to them - an elitist attitude brought on by clever marketing and overpricing which makes people perceive they are better than everything else. It infuriates me for several reasons, not the least of which is someone telling ME what I should like based on... nothing! They don't have a clue. I feel Nord keyboards are great sounding, and have nice features, but are completely overpriced by about 100% next to all of the other retailers with similar products. That doesn't mean they are better.

@kierenmoore3236 6 месяцев назад

Perhaps the Yamaha does have the better action and is simpler to use, but that Nord piano definitely sounded better. I liked the clean Rhodes sound on the Yamaha, though.

@AynsleyGreen 6 месяцев назад

@@kierenmoore3236 I play both all the time - the Nord piano samples sound great in isolation, but in a mix they can be a bit 'too much' - Keyscape is even worse, in this regard. The Yamaha piano sample just sit right in a live band, and I find the action is significantly more comfortable to play. You could buy a YC88 and a Prophet 6 for the same money as a NS4 - that's a killer rig.

@@BillVincent totally agree with you. As a player in a church band most of my life, I get turned off to Nord by the keyboard players in church bands with their slogan of "If its not Nord it doesn't praise the Lord". Seriously.

Great playing and great video !! I’m experienced in using the kawai mp7se, stage 4, and yc88, the white grand sounds the same as the white grand on the stage 2. My top two boards will be the yc88 and mp7se. I really won’t use half the synths on the stage 4. To me it’s a waste of money. I am not a fan of the action on the stage 4. If your fingers get sweaty you really sure slip around alot but on the yc88, and mp7se i can play all day with no ISSUES at all. On the mp7se, it has the most intuitive virtual tech that you can adjust, but you don’t have even half the parameters or settings on the yc88 or the nord. The nord dont even have a pedal sound eithor, so that’s kind of a turnoff for me. My fav YC88 sound is the c700. Keep up the good work.

@richardpenrose1968 5 месяцев назад

I have used the Nord Stage 3 88 on a few events and personally didn’t click with it. I tried out a few other boards and ended up with the Yamaha CP88 and YC61 which at the time cost me less including high quality Soundwear and Gator cases than the Nord! I preferred many of the Yamaha sounds over the Nord. Regarding the pianos the Nord has the edge with adjustable true sympathetic string resonance, release samples, hammer and pedal noise. I prefer the fundamental tone of the Yamaha pianos particularly the Hamburg but I really wish it had those features. If they added this in the CP/YC ranges it would be really interesting to hear how this would affect this shootout. I’m hoping Yamaha will add these hugely requested features from their ideascale page in a firmware update as I know they already exist in some of Yamahas digital home pianos. Overall the Nord samples have more low end but this can be eq’d on the Yamaha boards. Regarding synths etc, neither the CP or YC were designed for this. However, one feature that I love about the Yamaha boards is the build in usb audio interface. This allows me to connect my iPhone or iPad with a single cable and trigger some really excellent iOS synths. I can then layer loads of synths with AUM if I want and get huge sounding patches! The Nord Stage 4 definitely sounds great though and there are certain things I prefer about the sounds but then I prefer some aspects of the Yamaha sounds aswell which made the CP/YC combo a no brainer for me.

Well done fellas, really enjoyable video. I think Nord win it - however when I last played the YC I was impressed by the light key action on higher registers - e.g. when you want to do fast, rattly stuff for boogie/New Orleans. So when are you doing the Stage 4 vs Montage M rematch ;)

It's the Nord for me!! Now the real battle would be bring in that Montage M than we would have a battle!!

5:48 this is so weird because this is precisely what Nord is known for, mix ready sound! Certainly what I have experienced and heard from my music circles

I think if we want to get to better pricepoints, it really should be vs the montage.. and the nord automatically will have the lead on the organ, remains to be seen on the rest.
