Awesome review. Thanks for sharing
Jeremy I have a question, would you consider the Yamaha KX-8
Usb midi Keyboard Weighted 88 key in this best 88 key for under $300 ??
I may have a chance to get a used Yamaha (but in good condition) KX-8 usb midi keyboard weighted 88 key for $225-250. I would use it to learn piano, and also to play midi samples, tones, beats, off it with computer and/or midi synth hardware etc.
Do you think this keyboard would rank highly in your 88 Key midi keyboard for under $300 category even tho it is used?
Thanks, appreciate your channel and wisdom! 😊👍
does it come with a pedal?
I would love a med to high quality 88 key digital piano that just had grand piano sound. I don’t need the other sound options. Any thoughts?
It's amazing to see Korg entering the Budget VFM Keyboard Category with an Amazing instrument!!
And as Always, Great Video Jeremy, your content never disappoints!!
Wow, this is exactly what I needed and more! Buying as a gift while knowing nothing about pianos, and this video was a gem of a find. I make videos for a living and seeing how well this was put together is astounding. Thank you very much, sir 🤝
Thank you for this great review. Your seal of approval just makes the decision to purchase so much easier. I'm sold! 🙂
Thank you so much for this review! I've got the Yamaha E373 last year after watching your video on it, and it's great for beginners like myself but only has 61 keys so I figured out I prefer to mainly play classical music with a piano sound so I want the 88 keyboard for that and this one sounds perfect!
Unfortunately, everyone here dreams of buying your magic hands too. :D
True..heheh
Got a question as a beginner
Does the damper pedal is the same as sustain pedal
You can buy them for only hundreds hours of hard work and training 😂
HAHAHAHA
@@leenathacker2592 yes
Great review. More reviews of this keyboard need to be seen. It is an achievement for quality and price, not to mention weight!
Great review on this keyboard as I am considering purchasing this item mainly for the portability, you made some good points on what it lacks and I hope Korg takes this up on future builds.
Another great thing to remember about this piano versus Roland Go 88 - not only is it 1kg lighter, but it also takes AA batteries as opposed to D cells. 6 D cell batteries will weigh 1kg or over, whereas six AA batteries are considerably lighter. So the weight different between the Korg Liano and Roland Go 88 closer to 2kg if you are using batteries.
what about the sound? Is it the same as korg liano?
An excellent video review, as usual! The one thing I would miss is an onboard strings/piano layered sound. Otherwise, it's impressive for the price. But I'm loving my Yamaha PSR-E473 with the microphone input. I really wish I would have gotten the PSR-EW425 with the 76 keys, though.
I bought a Korg D1... For the action on the keys and to practice my scales on it... I would like to play this one wish there was a music shop in these parts... Always a pleasure to watch your demos... ☮🔥🎹
That Debussy segment at the opening is just stunning. It's better than the recordings - sure be nice to hear you play the full version sometime. Outstanding 👍🏼
Glad you enjoyed it
Lmao I just listened 3 times. It's too good I wanted to watch the review but now I'm just gonna stick Chopin on and chill lol
Thank you...I KNEW I recognized that piece. (Played it as a kid some 50 years ago.) So beautiful.
Is thst the first song he played?
yeah Jeremy you play really well and are a wonderful reviewer of keyboards too!@@JeremySee
Sounds much better than the B series I used to own. This is more closer to PA600's default piano, also based on high end Korg lineup such as Kronos
Nice to watch & very comprehensive review! Nice skills too! :)
I agree with your assessment about keyboards with hundreds of sounds most people will never use. It's a marketing tool for manufacturers to make people want to buy theirs, and costs them little to nothing to add the sounds. Also great point about not having built in Bluetooth, as almost every device today is Bluetooth capable. It seems a blend of Casio, Korg, and Yamaha features would make an ideal product, that we will probably never see at an affordable price. This sure seems to be a compelling product. I just wish their software would work with 10" Kindle Fire HD tablets. Having to purchase an iPad to work with the software doubles the price.
Agreed. But the iPad Mini 6 256G would be a great thing to have for music and many other things. Many tech reviewers say it is the best all around iPad, as the size makes it easy to handle, but a screen big enough to be easy to view and use. Some traded in their iPad Pros and are happy, but most already have a MacBook Pro, too. So especially for home studio use, this is great for the price and would fit what I need to have a nice 88 key instrument at home with my 2 61 note keyboards, the Roland Go:Keys and Casiotone CT-S1, my Roland JD-Xi synth/vocorder and my Yamaha PSS-A50.
When I get a Pro level keyboard, I will use it at church, and also a steal for $1200. The Roland RD 88 that has everything wanted in a professional level stage piano and has 3000 voices, and many things other digital pianos does not have.
The bottom line is there something for everyone at different budgets. And this Korg Liano is definitely a gem.
First off Jeremy, your playing crushes it! Outstanding! This Korg keyboard is a tremendous value. Thanks for excellent and informative review!
Always good to have you here buddy.
agreed.. love his playing;;;;
Is this a keyboard or a digital piano
Amazing review. Thank you...
It's nice to hear how the keyboard sounds like from a person who knows how to play and knows what they're talkin about keep up the good work
Great review,great value for the thanks for sharing.
If this keyboard could instantly give me your keyboard talent and musicianship, Jeremy, I would already have ordered it! Thank you for a beautiful and informative demo.
Thank you Bob for your kind compliments.
@@JeremySee Hi, are you aware of narrow keys?
@@ValkyRiver Did you find the answer?
I'm looking up different keyboards right now because I want to RELEARN how to play. So far all your videos have been great. This keyboard sounds awesome, but yea that audio jack is a problem for me
Bought this, and I found pleasant specially when you are in earphones. 😁 Thanks for this review!
Thank you for the work on the price of a keyboard for the few of us who cannot afford the higher points of this type of equipment.
One more thing: Regarding the missing indicator light for the sound selector, that's an age-old problem with a lot of devices. My solution: Apply a small spot of white type correction fluid (remember those?) inside or next to the notch. Problem solved.
Thank you so much for your Brief explanation. Always the best 👌🏼
So nice of you
Awesome video Jeremy! Very happy you like the Liano.
Love your new EK vids that just dropped!
Great job on Clair de lune, Jeremy! Very impressive!
I bought the Liano before watching this video. I was sold on the psr e473 from your videos. Went to buy it then realised, i don't need so many features. Just wanted something simple 🙂
A+ review. So. Long time no leave comment. Ok. Yeah still going through a keyboard every six months. Buying an entry level band stage setup up instruments for Foster children I will have at my home this up coming year. They lost both parents so I figure music maybe good therapy. This keyboard fits my buget. Thanks again for your great videos. Batteries, speaker, hook up to pa, mono out info is especially appreciated.
U r superb.... God bless you more... ❤️From India
Informative and inspiring review... I finally got this one for me and my child... :D thanks, Mr. See! God Bless!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, well done.
Great information and well done video. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Really excellent review. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
dude that arrangement on the fly was so cool!
I really like your samples @8:23 an 8:54. Having carried a Fender Rhodes 73 since 1975 to every apartment in my life I would really appreciate the less strain on my back. It's the lower register keys I miss the most. thanks for pursuing Art.
At least you play a Rhodes, and not a Hammond C3! Friends help you move; REALLY good friends help you move a Hammond! Haha! (I got my C3 for free, and it has the same innards as a B3.)
I would have to play it too know if it’s for me. Love your videos. I’m an owner of a kawai mp7se. It is very heavy but I’ve been looking for one cheaper and lighter to use for church so i don’t always have to lift it but still has a professional sound that can lead through worship no prob the way the kawai can.
You are a beautiful player man!
Cool demo!
This is soo beautiful. I never played the Piano and I been interested to self learn.
Nice to see you playing more technical piano stuff than you used too,👍
*thank you many times for your sharing your own abilities everyday*
🙏🙏❤
So nice of you
Very useful. Thank you.
Thank you very much for this review, which came up inscrutably in my thread. I have been wondering whether I should get a piano or electronic keyboard. I would like a piano-like touch, but this might be just what I need. I would like to have a little music at my fingertips after decades without it. Again, thank you.
Excellent video…….Korg is and has always been my favorite synth keyboards……the mini Korg…but I wasn’t aware of this 88 key piano…..THANK YOU ! A thousand thank yous my friend………beautiful playing btw………5 stars! Greetings from Hollywood CA
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for this review, this is just what I am looking for, it will work prefect with my office setup.
Glad it was helpful!
3:18 One electric piano sound that I like so much is the KORG 01/W Pro's Dyno Piano.
It was cool that you played "As the deer"!
I keep trying to learn about these pianos then get sidetracked and mesmerized by this guy’s playing. It is astonishingly good.
I picked up a used yamaha p45 for just over 300 bucks. Pretty good starter piano for the price.
This is a wonderful review! I know what to do with my money now. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
That Korg Gadget LE software looks amazing, but it was really sad to learn that it's only for Apple products or windows devices? I was really hoping to have the same setup as Jeremy shows in the video, but with my own Android tablet... Are there any Android alternatives to this software?
I noticed that you mentioned that the keyboard can use PA speakers, but wow, some of us can't rake up enough money for that. On My keyboard, it comes with 2 built in speakers at 20 watts each, and measuring 4 inch sub and tweeter, so I'm looking for a better external speakers for my keyboard, so I'm writing to ask your opinion on what I can get for no more than 200 bucks. And good enough for the Pipe Organ sounds and choirs. I want to know what size the speaker woofer needs to be or whether or not I need an amp? I prefer stereo studio or similar. Also, should I buy a subwoofer for the Pipes low sounds? Thanks for your time Jeremy, I try to watch a lot of your videos. Terry
Nice Review! 😀
As a Beginner Wow its my dream piano 88keys Korg. But i dont have yet money to buy this piano lol. I loved the sound of Digital E-Piano it sounds like similar to yamaha.
The keys look hard though. As I checked Yamaha PSR 3000A, I am impressed with the softness of the keys,
Just ordered one. I know my chords, I had lessons but never stuck with it. Decided at this price point, I can be as awful as I want with no buyer’s remorse.
Thank you for the review Jeremy. I have a problem here. I cannot decide which is better: Yamaha PSR-E473 vs Casio CT-X800 vs Korg liano? Which one is better in your opinion? Price is very similar among them
I might go all-out choosing this expensive yet cheapest price point I can physically find.
This is included now in my top 5 choices.
I have the Casio Px 560 M and was wondering what you might recommend as a step up that still has all the rhythm and various instruments, strings, synthesizer built right in.
I picked up an inexpensive electric piano for about $300 on a Black Friday sale several years ago. All 88 keys, a handful of sounds, and weighted keys. I think it even supports MIDI.
Which piano is it?
answer what pisno is it
Hi Jeremy, and thanks. Is the keyed noisy at all? Have you tried using it as a midi keyboard to control virtual pianos and synths, and if yes did it work well? Best regards
my man... nice to see you play:)))
Hey, thanks!
Nice review! Does this piano have a split keyboard capability?
Early times for wishes for a second version, but I hope Korg would add a good stage piano and a Wurly e-piano sound to a Liano II and please, please, Korg, add split & layering to an updated version plus two good bass voices for the split function. The lack of split is a show-stopper for me.
Awesome review @JeremySee! I'm super curious if the keys are "true" full size (164-165mm octave width) as opposed to most unweighted keyboards (Casiotone, PSR-E) which have narrower keys (159-160mm). And how does the main piano sound on the Liano compare to the PSR-EW425's main piano?
Did you get an answer for that?
The keys are normal length and the octave stretch is also standard
Great review! I am planning to get one of these keyboards for busking and casual use round the house and vacations etc (I already own a Yamaha P515 as my main piano which I'd take out for more serious gigs etc). With this keyboard buying some awesomely lightweight - do you know of a similarly lightweight keyboard stand? Since it only weighs 6kg most of the X stands out there are overkill and I am looking for something maybe which is maybe plastic rather than metal to be able to take out busking with me on the bus etc? Lightest X stand I could see was around 3kg which is half the weight of the keyboard itself. I was looking something maybe only 1kg.
nice review bro. !!!
Glad you liked it
Loved the Debussy intro!
Thanks man. 🎹 ⌨️.
I picked one up a few months ago. The main reason being that my arthritis forced me to find a lighter action 88 key instrument. I like it overall, but do wish that the internal reverb was better. I’m using an app through my iPad to rectify that issue.
If this keyboard had pitchbend and mudulation wheels and a standard MIDI out, I am sure music producers would be buying multiple units for their studios.
I don't particularly like this new trend to put features in some app ( the new model from Yamaha pulls the same trick ). What if they decide to discontinue some model , which they eventually always do ? That would render the entire thing useless . From what I understand Yamaha is even removing features from older models to promote their new shiny toy + app .
It seems most functionality is hardwired in the keyboard, just need the manual.
This brotha playing "As the dear. at 3:18" lol Love it.
I have a Donner DEP 20. I found that for 370$. I would go for that over the Korg any day. Fully weighted keys you cant beat it for the extra 50$
Optimal key quality at lowest cost sounds great for this kind of keyboard! How are portability and pedal options for the Donner?
i got one - blue , -very nice
Hey thanks for the thorough review! Out of curiosity, is the app free?
Jermy thanks for another great video, Something I didn't hear you talking about registration keys, are there any registration save slots keys for setting in the Liano? Are there any other ways to save the setting (program and such)? I understand is not really needed for the default paino options, but if you use the software it will be useful to have this save option, dose the software come with registration keys in the software?
Also, it will be great if you could make a video in the future showing how to use the Liano bundled software that comes with the Liano.
Thank you for this great review.
How would you compare this Korg Liano vs. Korg B2N?
He. Maestro. Very good explanation. I would buy this piano. This is the first time I hear some classical pieces. I like Baroc. But you didnot talk about the best sound output setup ?
Thx, Great review as always. After having seen your review of the Casio CDP series , I just bought an CDP-S110. My main criterium is the key action. How does that compare to this Korg?
casio better.. hammer action
The Liano looks and sounds nice for a small unit. It would be nicer yet if it had an optional stand with three pedals to go with it, but for bare bones and portable use it looks wonderful. Looking around, I saw it being sold with Knox stand and bench.
That would be cool!
I wonder if the STB1 stand (meant for B1 and B2) will suit the liano
Hi jeremy, i'm looking for a keyboard for play at church, i'm a begineer player and i've been seeing the casio cts-500, in that range of price do you think is a good choice or you would recommend another keyboard?
The thing I am concerned about is whether the black or white keys near the felt area is ok to press down easily. The Casio CT-S1, LK-S450, and even PX-S7000 do not pass this test. When playing Moonlight Sonata 1st Movement, my thumb and little finger are both on black keys, and I need to use the middle or ring finger to press another black key, so I am force to press it down near the felt area. On those 3 pianos above, it was very difficult.
This is also what I concern
it is better than on some cheap keyboards, but still quite difficult to play on the keys in between black keys.. I actually hate this action it is like a heavy spring with rubber at the bottom.. and you can hear the rubber noisy every time you press the keys
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
can you do a comparison between the korg liano and recital pro? those are the two i'm looking at
Loved the review, Jeremy. You mentioned recommending some (presumably powered) speakers to get better sound from the keyboard, but I don't see anything in your lists. Could be my eyes...
geni.us/VSvyg
With your hands, I could have any piano... dream hands!
which one is better this or Yamaha P45? Also, can i use these both keyboards as MiDi controller for DAW?
Hi Jeremy,
I am looking for my first keyboard. I played back in high school and i am 40 now 😅 so technically i am really a beginner to playing piano (again). I like to write poetry & tried some lyrics that i wanna make it a song, mostly inspirational. Hence the urge now to learn how to play. I wanna try. 🙈🤭 i am torn between this korg liano and casio ct-s300 or casion ctx-3000. But this korg liano has DAW feature and free app subscription for 3 months i think and that really caught my eye which makes me lean towards this one. I am on a budget A$500 max. As I don’t wanna shell out too much yet but i also like where i have a room to level up with this keyboard. I have been looking at your videos, they are fantastic and helpful but i’d still ask for your advice. It will really mean alot me 🙏☺️🥰 all the best and keep the videos coming 😍😍😍😊😊
Hearing Debussy sold me. Buying one.
Thanks for the review! I was debating a Yammie e473 and then was convinced this would be better for my situation. Ordered one yesterday...from Sweetwater...because I *always* get a bag of candy with my order! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Glad I could help!
Thx for the great videos. Question. When you use the bundled app are the sounds coming from the piano or the iPad?
Nevermind. Spoke too soon. 🙄
Question sir: are the keys heavy or light? I hope heavy but for $300 I can’t complaint…thank u…..and again beautiful masterful playing……
What would you rather have:
Harpsichord or Clavinet?
They usually go with Harpsi :(
Great keyboard!
I’m sold!❤
Any recommendations for a beginner midi keyboard? Or a great value MIDI?
I've ordered my first ever digital piano Roland FP-10 which will be my foray into weighted action keys, and also the only digital piano my music store in my vicinity had(btw music stores here in my area is very scarce) i found the sound really very dynamic with such depth. It's about to arrive in couple more weeks.
How does this compare to FP-10?! If this was an option, would've gone for this.
dont worry fp10 is better action
@@bowltube Hello to both, you and albert, so you confirm your piano is better? I am about to buiy and not sure which one to buy...
Sir I am a beginner piano player, I currently use Yamaha psr ew310. Now between Korg Liano and Yamaha P45, which gear should I buy?
Super video thanks. Just one, probably basic, question. How well does this keyboard work as a USB-MIDI keyboard with, say, Logic Pro, to trigger all kinds of non-keyboard sounds and instruments. Does it compare well to the Arturias, MAudios and Novations of the world, in terms of sound. Not talking about MIDI features, mainly wondering if the triggered sounds will sound as good. Thanks in advance.
I believe the sounds are only as good as what vst you are using
It worth updating from my korg Sp170s? Is this a better sounding piano?
