Always amazed by people who can just... move with the instrument. The second you hear a tone you can immediately play something fitting for it, and my brain tells me "mate you can't even play a 3 note chord properly maybe you should start playing cymbals or something".
Great, great channel though. Thanks for doing this and inspiring people.
I’ve always been good at playing by ear. I don’t know how exactly; I just always have. I can hear a song I’ve never heard before and immediately start humming along to it, or hear a drum rhythm and immediately start playing a fitting melody without any issues. I don’t really have to think about it; I can just sit down and play.
As Maverick says in the new Top Gun movie, “Don’t think; just do.”
This is amazing. Can you please do the Carry On 49-keys as well?
or the fp88 touch senctive
thank you!
You're welcome!
Hello. I am learning Classical Piano and preparing for my grade 3 trinity exam. I would have to travel to aid my ailing father. I wanted to know if I should buy this piano so that I can practise my scales and appregios at least? it looks very easy to carry and compact.
Is there another compact keyboard - fold up or rolled up style - that you would recommend?
Hello. Nice video! I was just about to buy it, but it just having a single finger mode was a big dealbreaker for me.
Not sure if you'll ever read this but could you do some covers on this?
I'm a guitarist (with a totally different profession) but I am looking to learn the piano. Would you recommend this?
No. It sounds terrible 😂
35:08 those are slash cord backings
Good
Great Video! But I do have a question how do you make the midi work? I plugged it up to my iPad and it just charges it
Going into the ipad maybe be the problem. What programme are you feeding it into?
Hi, I’m using GarageBand mostly. To elaborate better, The issue is I’m hearing only the tones of the integrated piano but through my iPad speaker the software tones. My solution is plugging a headphone cable in the piano to block hearing the keyboards integrated tones while playing. It works but seems silly

I have a question, what do the speakers actually sound like? is there even a sound? would it be possible at all to use it just as a hobby and use the speakers or is it that bad?
Sounds awful
Again, does that mean unplayable or just not very good sound quality..?
@@derpu to my ears rallye bad
If you want to try yourself do it, you can send it back, but I can't recommend it.
The speakers sound as it is in the demo as they are recorded from the actual speakers. Small and tiny but usable for home practice or in a hotel when bashing out parts for practice.
@@AngeloTsocosMusic but there is a cable in the headphone output 😅🤣
Can we hook up a speaker to it using the headphone jack somehow? Would it help it sound better?
Angelo demo'ed that! Just watch the movie!
Are you giving the folding piano away as a giveaway?
I don't understand so is it good or not? With noise keys , floating piano on desk,plastic material and bad sound on speaker , İs it good or not? Because I want buy but I am confusing after watching this video,I am not kids but I need midi controller with 88 keys so İs it good or not?
😂
This Scottish key teasing guy just wants to be seen talking, but he doesn't explain anything
@@TheNucleuxWtf you are laughing?
i want to learn piano and i don't want to spend too much money... do you think starting with fold up piano and after one year buying real piano is a good idea ? i need your help :)🙏
Same question
Get used keyboard instead. Pretty cheap these days. Then decide if you wanna get better digital piano or acoustic piano later.
can i get it from amazon ? also can u play scared to be lonely on it?
Yes and yes
The width is so short as compared to original keyboard size
Brilliant honest review. Thank you. Short keys - the main issue you should not buy it. I didnt.
I just got one of these on STOD. I live on a lake and have a pontoon boat, this will go along with my pontoon band. All battery operated, using Bose S1 for pa, Have a battery operated mixer, Zoom battery operated guitar amp sim & effects, ( with Drum machine) Upright bass with pre-amp that goes in to the mixer.. And a beer or two.. haha
WOW That sounds incredible!!! What a guy! Let me know when you release the album 😂
The length is ok 88 notes , but the width is where the problem is
3 things I don't think much of this with carry-on Piano. there are no reviews or anything on what apps or programs will work with Carry-on Piano or, how to connect it via its one and only micro USB port to a midi device.
2. There are no ready combined chords like you can get on most other keyboards, Yamaha, Cassio, Roland Etc.
3. Those woodwind and brass voices are awful, they really let the side down and some of the percussion is a semitone out, c# instead of c natural. That wouldn't sit very well with someone wishing to compose a piece of music on this piano featuring tubular bells. You would have to play in a different key to the accompanying rhythms or, you'd have to hook it up to a midi interface, mixer, computer Etc, so you could hopefully, fix that. I'd knock a couple of stars off at least. I really wouldn't recommend it to any professional musicians, but I would recommend it to children over about the age of 5 who aren't as likely to trash it.
That’s a very generous review from you. I would go further and say ALL the sounds are awful and I certainly wouldn’t even recommend it to any children of any age. I genuinely do think it’s that bad 🫣😅
No dynamics is a deal breaker for me. Brilliant concept otherwise...
It has since received that feature
Now you can! Finally!
