    Thank you so much for this review!! When I was younger I played keyboard/piano but lost interest at some point. Now, some 15 years later, I wanted to start over again and I struggled a bit with finding the right instrument. Out of all the videos I've watched yours has been the most helpful one. You have a great way of presenting and I really appreciate your honesty throughout the video.
    In the end I now decided to go with the Roland FP-10 and was even able to find a well-priced bundle offer. It'll probably take another few weeks until it arrives here but I'm already so excited to start playing on it.
    Thanks again & lots of love from Germany

    Yo me compré hace como 1 año un Roland FP-30.
    Me di cuenta que salía mucho mås barato comprarlo en Estados Unidos o en europa que en México y justo tuve una oportunidad de oro porque mi padre en un viaje por su trabajo fue a España, entonces le dije que pasara a ver en alguna tienda musical los pianos y efectivamente estaba mucho mås barato (recuerdo que en México estaba como en 20'000 y a el costo como 12'000 ya haciendo el cambio de euros a pesos)
    PerdĂłn padre por hacerte cargar un piano digital por todo el aeropuerto de regreso.
    TenĂ­a miedo de que le fueran a decir algo por exceso de peso o de volumen pero al parecer no le dijeron nada y hasta lo pusieron en algĂșn lugar especial para cosas frĂĄgiles.

    Only requirement I disagree with is the built in metronome. Almost everyone has a smart phone and the smartphone metronome apps have many more features than the built in metronomes. Other than that, your critiques of these inexpensive pianos is extremely comprehensive. I'm learning about instruments I didn't know anything about. The cons about each instrument is extremely valuable to know.

  • @Asahi380
    @Asahi380 Pƙed 4 lety +10

    For beginners who really want to practice their fingers and basic skills, personally, I think the key actions are the most important thing to consider at first.
    Therefore, I strongly don't recommend the digital pianos that don't have the escapement mechanism in their key actions. Because you have to ensure that the action is close enough to an acoustic piano so you won't be confused when you switch between them.
    Pianos like Yamaha P-45/105/115/125, which uses GHS action, have the simplest action and sensor inside them. They're playable, but also nothing close to the real piano actions. When you practice some skillful pieces like Chopin's or Debussy's, their poor actions and sensors will hold you back. And please, check for weight balance between the black and white key. Casio PX-S1000 and S3000 does really bad at this (black keys are lighter than the white keys).
    I'm using Roland's FP-30, which I think is a great choice for beginners. If too expensive, FP-10 also will do. They're using PHA-4 Standard action that comes with the escapement, which is not perfect (keys feel too heavy when playing some fast pieces), but good enough for the entry-level. On Yamaha's side, you can see how expensive the pianos are that come with GH3X or NWX actions. GH3 action is good, but still feels "wrong" when I'm playing the CLP-635.
    I heard that some Nord and Kawai's digital pianos also have decent actions, but I have never tried them before so I'm not making any comments.

    • @aBachwardsfellow
      @aBachwardsfellow Pƙed 4 lety +1

      - I've also found that it's important to get the best (most suitable) combination of touch sensitivity setting and volume level as different combinations give different "actions" . For example (I have the P125): setting the touch sensitivity to soft gives a brighter sound which makes the action feel "lighter" - I'm getting more sound for my effort; whereas setting it to heavy gives a more mellow sound - I have to play harder to get the same sound. And of course the volume level setting affects that as well. On the soft setting it feels more like I'm playing a Yamaha grand and requires mus less effort, whereas with the heavy setting and the volume just slightly lowered the touch-to-response feels more like a heavier Steinway.

    I went with the FP-10 about a year ago after playing the P125 and Privia. Action, weighting, and feeling of the keys was far superior (the others felt like plastic toys compared to the FP-10) and I’ve never once had a second thought about buying it. I wish it had a better Wurlitzer sound built in but that’s its only shortfall in my mind (besides the cheap included sustain pedal which you mentioned).

    Dear friend I've made a terrible mistake. I never knew about weighted keys....... I started out piano in grade 4 with a Casio wk 1200. My sir never me any sort of classical music other than scales and chords. I quit playing the piano as I didn't get time cuz of my drum lessons and band practices not to mention a lot to study for the skipped classes. I only practices what I knew like sings such as unravel river flows in you blue bird all of me and believer. I got bored and stored piano. Few days ago I got my determination back from watching your lie in April. It moved me very much. But when I came back I discovered about sighted keys and such. I'll practice like there's no tomorrow or so I thought. I don't know what to. I need lessons but due to corona.... I was planning to learn from flow key as many suggest it and say it's the best among simply piano playground and such. Please tell me what I must do ?? My dream is to master the piano and play my heart out in classical music. I don't care time. I'll practice practice practice until I reach perfection. But now.....

    I started playing piano on my girlfriends Yamaha P45 before buying an incredible Kawaii for almost 3 times the price, I probably spend a third of my practice time on the P45 and i am very happy to play it, the piano sounds are decent but the speakers don't do the bass notes justice and you really can't play gently, the keys are pretty heavy but as a result very forgiving for a beginner.

    @jeremy see I'll put this question to you, but I will also accept answers from anyone else who is familiar with the keyboard or software I had used. I used a Casio lk-280 and a piece of software after I had been playing a short time called "The Logic Behind Music" which taught me a lot of music theory. My weakness to this day is that I am essentially musically illiterate and cannot play anything by sheet music. I got about 2/3 the way through each of the songs on the keyboard (,it had 102 total). I learned them all from rendering tones, notes and the progression of the songs. What do you suggest or recommend? I've considered something like "Synthesia" to learn so I can follow the notes visually while associating the tones with locations on the keyboard. (Which I now know which keys are which note in which octive.)

    Jeremy... noted a minor error in your video... from piano player's perspective, @3:13 "the higher notes towards the LEFT side of the piano" -- should be "RIGHT"
    Was reading and taking notes from the transcript. Thank you for posting this video as it is informing me of things I need to look for in a keyboard for my son who has just begun piano lessons about 3 months ago! I ordered a Yamaha DGX-670 in March, but it's on back order and they keep projecting deliveries to be a month out, beginning in April, then May, now June 22-- it will probably pushed back another month the way things are going. I understand it all plays into the various supply chain issues (chips, parts, shipping, etc.). So I am looking at other options now, just in case Yamaha can't deliver on time or delays become too prolonged. The last thing I want to end up with is a keyboard that's been sitting in a shipping container for months either offshore or in a shipping yard and collecting mold/rust/mice/rats/exotic pests (you get my point). My only problem right now is that the vendor already sold and delivered to me the stand and pedal unit-- hopefully, all goes well with Yamaha and the vendor from here forward!

      I'm a classically-trained pianist and find the P125 can be set up to be a great practice instrument. I set the touch to heavy and turn the volume slightly lower than an acoustic piano - that way I can play more firmly and it helps develop my finger strength so that when I go to the acoustic grand it actually feels easier to play! :-) The other voices and features are excellent quality as well (I'm also an organist and can practice that as well) -

    Those videos are important. It took me buying 3 keyboards and selling two of them after using them for only 3-6 month until I finally bought the one I really liked, the Roland RD2000. Expensive but not compared to a real piano. I really needed the best possible and fun to play keybed and enough sounds implemented. Also I needed lots of physical controls as I hate to dive into menus to change a layer or split. As a piano player I had no clue about digital keyboards, workstations, arrangers and the differences. Had to learn the hard way. Love your videos although they mostly cover the cheaper range but that's ok.

      @@canadiansoul9401 likewise !!!! I'm a classically-trained pianist and find the P125 can be set up to be a great practice instrument. I set the touch to heavy and turn the volume slightly lower than an acoustic piano - that way I can play more firmly and it helps develop my finger strength so that when I go to the acoustic grand it actually feels easier to play! :-) The other voices and features are excellent quality as well (I'm also an organist and can practice that as well) -

I would like to use for practice, performing and recording purposes. I actually choose Korg Pa600. But then i thought it's better to purchase a Midi key+DAW studio setup, which is costing me less than Korg pa600 budget. So, what is your suggestions? Thanks !

    I think it's brilliant that Korg includes a fullsize single pedal in its B2 series, even if the pedal itself doesn't support half pedalling. I use half pedalling with a proper wooden stand and pedal board (this for my Yamaha) but I find half-pedalling with a single (portable) pedal impossible. So is it worth doing that upgrade just for a single pedal to get half pedalling? I don't think so, particularly not when we're only talking about beginner pianos.

    It's so good that newbies can go to CZcams and get advice from the likes of Jeremy Sees before buying what could be the wrong piano. It breaks my heart when a new student presents an inappropriate instrument - usually purchased a month before tracking me down. Sadly, the teacher is often an afterthought and has no opportunity to advise at all. But I have also met teachers who seem to be disinterested in which piano their new student aquires. Shame on them! Jeremy fills the gap. All that is needed is for more people to visit his channel.

    I'm thinking of getting a digital piano to try learning a little contemporary music, nothing fancy classical or such, and I'm looking at something relatively cheap. The cheapest I can find with weighted keys is about 300 USD (in Sweden, so somewhat higher prices) and that would be semi-weighted with 88 keys. I started looking at used ones though, as you can get great deals if you have a little patience and look around a bit and I managed to find a Yamaha P45 for about 300 USD (which includes shipping which is about 118 USD in itself!), but the real kicker is it also includes the optional stand in that price :) Seeing as the lowest price for the P45 without the stand (and not including shipping) I can find in Sweden seems to be 486 USD this seems like a pretty solid deal. It's on your list and despite a few drawbacks it's a pretty good one (I have a feeling 64 polyphony will never be a limit for me :) ) I'd look for a used Korg but if the aps are all for iOS anyway, well :) If I can learn Black Holes (Don't Hold On), The End (Stars Always Seem to Fade) and Escape the Mind (all by The Warning), and maybe Scarlet from Ayashi no Ceres on it I'm going to be fine :p

Been playing guitar for about 40 years. I've bulit my own recording set up in my home. Music is a serious hobby of mine, but still a hobby. Thinking about adding a keyboard/digital piano to my set up because I love the instrument and its many sounds. I'm in between novice and intermediate as far as my skills on the piano are concerned. You have been a wealth of information. For my needs, there's a lot of great choices in the $700.00 and under range. Your videos have offered some great choices as well. I'm looking closely at the Studiologic Numa Compact 2 or the 2X. I realy like the fact that you don't have to menu dive to get to everything this product has. The sounds are just what i'm looking for and the prices for each are quite reasonable for what you get. Any thoughts? I would value your opinion! Thanks!!
