Wow! Much more inclined to get one of these now they've got velocity sensitivity. Like you said, cant believe thay made them without!
Would have been nice for you to demo a piano sound to test the touch sensitivity, rather than a few beats?
Not everything makes the edit 😂 The in built sounds really are borderline terrible IMO and we’re not greatly enhanced by velocity sensitivity. The velocity response proved genuinely useful when used with external gear so I can see why my Drum nonsense made the cut. Thanks for keeping us on our toes Nathan 🤘
Excellent. Did not know foldable controllers existed!
Ordered one of the 49 key nodels from you guys - arrived the next day! First impressions are good - it feels solid enough for what it is. Obviously not expecting luxury feeling keybed on something like this but it's perfectly playable (the keys are, in fact just a littl bit wider than my YC!). And, as you say, nothing else on the market quite like this - highly portable, small, lightweight, 49 keys, good price point... what's not to like? Just wish it came with a carry case like the pianos do 🙂
Can you confirm that this has speakers?
@@danfredrickson6653 The 49 key keyboard is just a controller keyboard, so it has no internal sounds and no speakers. The 88 note piano comes with 128 onboard sounds and does have onboard speakers.
Thank you!
I read so much bad stuff about foldable/roll up and portable piano's keyboards. However when i got mine wich is a roll up keyboard with 88 keys atleast a year ago, i was able to connect it to Magix and turn it into a midi controller. I first played on it when it wasn't connected and it just felt like a regular toy keyboard to me. It still can make good piano sounds. The only issue i have is when i sometimes play that it suddenly repeats the same pattern as if its a way that its trying to teach me remembering notes or something. I do remember that i has different modes on it so maybe i activated the teaching mode or something.
Anyway on Magix when i connect mine to it, not only will the build in keyboard work in magix but also the foldable keyboard at the same time. i fixed that issue by just turning the volume on my foldable keyboard on 0 so that only the build in keyboard in Magix can play.
How or where can I get this in the U.S.? All the big online retailers like Amazon seem to only have the old non touch sensitive version.
There is another company "MIDIPLUS" which is selling their model "Vboard 49" which is the exact same product (and same configuration utility app) , it looks like Blackstar propose the equivalent UK (or european) version of this folding keyboard "FC-49". In France, I just bought the Blackstar model on Amazon (less than 120€ but also available at Sonovente shops) , Midiplus being unavailable in France. Maybe there is an OEM version in China available for a cheaper price. The only regret I have is that there is no 88 keys version of the FC-49 midi controller (the existing 88 keys version is only the standard classic folding keyboard with velocity keys but not the midi controler with knobs and XY pad for MIDI CC messages). I currently have a komplete kontrol M32 to travel but 32 keys are too few to play anything, 49 key is better but 61 or 88 would be perfect.
I stumbled across this product at my local music store (in South Australia) yesterday and had no idea it even existed. Was exactly what I was after. Full-width keys make a massive difference, I can actually play this thing! Sure it's not my Nord Grand, but the Nord doesn't fit in my backpack on the train :) Anyway via BLE Midi it paired instantly with Logic Pro on my iPad mini, and worked well, and also worked with the OP-1 Field, which is what I bought it for. If you haven't played one, the keys are like (good quality) laptop space bars, but with a bit more travel. I do want to use it next with a real midi device, and need to find out if the mini-TRS midi is Type-A, Type-B, or something else - no mention in the manual. Also no mention if the sustain pedal input is normally open or normally closed style. I'll work that out then cut the plug of an old smaller sustain pedal and solder a 3.5mm plug on. But yeah, pretty great little product!
Hi, do you recommend buying it for a totally beginner?
The one I have is the folding controller, it has no sounds, the sounds come from the device you connect it with. If you need something that folds smaller, this is the best there is in my opinion. If you don't need folding you may be better suited to something else just because the keys will be better on a normal entry keyboard (like a casio, but make sure it's velocity sensitive at least) or a normal controller keyboard. @@hussienadel5309
So i just bought one of these (the blackstar FC-49) and the "shift" button feels quite different to the other two "Octave" buttons, it doesn't click the same way and feels a bit like it's stuck down or something... whereas the others all have a good bit of travel and a satisfying "click" when you press them. Does anyone else have this unit and if so could you tell me if yours is the same please...? Im trying to work out if its defective or if it's actually meant to be that way...
Can you please confirm if the new 49 key version has speakers like v1?
The things to look for is how sturdy it is. Most of those devices break within a week if you look at comments on online shops .
Also how about the real piano players?
What is the purpose of having full range keyboard for some shit type of drums which can be pressed just on a laptop?
Maybe it would be nice to find for the review someone who actually plays piano?
Great point Shaq 👍
@@shaqszalewski true
I am taking piano grade 5 exam. I just bought one foldable 88-key for practising scales and sight reading on extended trip away from home. It definitely helps fit my purpose.
Do you know where this can be found in the US or Mexico? I have searched online and they only seem to have the original non velocity sensitive model for sale.
Hello, I just bought the Carryon 49. The sustain input seems to be smaller than normal, what sustain pedals are compatible with this?
If you make or buy a 6.35mm (1/4") jack socket to 3.5mm jack plug adapter cable, you can use any standard sustain pedal.
How do you know which ones have velocity and which don't? There doesn't appear to be any model numbers.
The Carry-On 'Touch' range have velocity sensitive keys as well as the 49 Key MIDI controller. Hope this helps :D
@@AndertonsKeyboardDept it's remotely impossible to find the Touch version on internet even on your website I only found the regular ones. Do you know whether it just got released and not stocked yet? Is it expected to launch in Europe?
Excellent!
When you say “these are the new ones” do you mean there was a v1 of this Carry On piano and now they’ve made a v2? I’d like to make sure I get the latest version
The new ones have velocity sensitivity.
I do the same thing with my P P.
:p
does the 88 key version have velocity sensetivity?
The "Carry-on Folding Piano 88 Touch" models have velocity sensitivity.
The original "Carry-on Folding Piano 88" (not Touch) models do not have velocity sensitivity.
Do the 88 key versions have the Pitch/Mod pad as well?
No, just the 49 mate ✊
@@jackduxbury1632 😒
How can I get one in the US?
I just ordered one from their store "Andertons" and the US shipping was really fast (4 days), but shipping cost like £45
don't see for sale anywhere US unfortunately just old version
Yeah they advertise this as "Midi Anywhere", but they are nowhere to be found.
I can see that you guys also muted the ambient sound while showing us the sounds which prevented us from hearing those stupid clicking noise of the keys which still exists 🤣🤣 edit: I had the chance to try the 49 yesterday and guess what I bought it because the clicking noise when you press the keys is no more and overall nice feel for such a small and thin device. Only one problem here. It is not compatible with Windows 11 if you try to use it as a Bluetooth midi controller . None of the helping between apps such as midiberry receive data from the keyboard despite that it shows up as one there. I have also tried cubase 12 where it shows up again but doesn't send any data to the Daw you are using. I tried it with garageband on an Ipad and it worked without problem... On their website there are no drivers or software to download to help the issue so for now I can conclude that Blurtooth is only supported on Apple devices... Overall I am happy with the design and convenience it's gonna provide me while travelling :)
Would've been cool if it had at least 1built in piano sound.. so you don't necessarily need a laptop to jam with.
Yo Elazar 👋 It does have in built sounds but they really are “Toyish” IMO. The product has great value I think as a remarkable midi controller so I think that’s why the demo of the in built sounds didn’t make it. The sounds are more than adequate for learning and practice just maybe not for “Music Making” ✊
@@jackduxbury1632 ohhh I understand. Thank you!
There are some videos on CZcams demonstrating the inbuilt sounds - as Jack says, they are quite "toyish" - but, as has been pointed out by some reviewers, adequate for accompanying a vocalist or whatever in a rehearsal setting.
sustain pedal, finally!
velocity sensitivity too
I got the 49-key model (so it's a controller only, and doesn't include the sounds that, as I understand it, you get with the 88-key version).
As for using it, I'm not massively impressed, even at this low price. First problem was that it, although it has USB-C for power and MIDI, it comes with a cable that's USB-A on the other end. So I had to source an adaptor to use it with my laptop.
But the real thing is the feel. It's unplayable, IMO. I'm not a highly skilled keyboard player, and I don''t know if that fact helps or hinders. It might be that a better player gets on with it better? I really don't know.
I like the idea of this class of device. I'd glady buy a higher quality (and higher priced) version of this, but as it stands it's unusable for me. Hopefully it's better for you!
No need to get an adapter, Type C to C cables are easy to find. But I'm wondering how you got this, where did you buy? Piano anywhere? More like "I can't find this anywhere".
No one can present like you do!! 😂
How come you never played it? 😢
I did, just didn’t make the edit! 😂 The in built sounds really are unusable for anything other than practice I’d say but hey, the things folds up and is cheap as chips! Thanks for stopping by Hunter 🙏
@@jackduxbury1632 Thank you So much for the response and honesty! I really hope they keep iterating it. Improved keyfeel, touch sensitivity, and bluetooth midi would bring this keyboard to the frontlines of being a compelling instrument.
This is what we want to go against all the guitar players everywhere .
