nice playing, way too digital for me
This keyboard is amazing
YAMAHA FOR SOUND QUALITY, AND PRICE. NORD TOO EXPENSIVE.
How is the listening done: what speakers, amplifier. Thank you.
YC sounds like a current keyboard. Nord sounds like something from 15 years ago.
YC 🥇 S4 🥈
What stand do you use for your iphone?
I'm not sure, but it seems to me that the YC73's organs and leslie are better. Anyway great video.
2:08:44
Honestly, whichever one you think was best, this whole video is worth it just to hear Ben playing, pulling out tune after tune just to mess around. So good!
Thank you. I appreciate your kind words!
Great review - Thankyou ...has really helped me make my mind up..
Loving it!!!!
Hi Ben, I just bought a Roland RD2000 used off of reverb and had a question as I'm new to roland products. The 1/4 outputs are EXTREMELY low going into my interface even at MAX volume. I factory reset it as well, but this is the lowest output I've ever seen from any instrument. Am I crazy or does the RD have low 1/4 output jacks and I need to use the XLR outs?
for comparison I previously had a Korg Nautilus, and at max volume it was just below peaking through my interface
Congrats on your new keyboard! I haven’t had an RD-2000 for many years now, but it’s still a great board. What interface are you using?
@@benallen5967 Thank you! And thanks for getting back to me! I'm using a Focusrite Scarlet 4i4. I'm plugged in to the back inputs (which have no software or physical volume knobs). I've used this with my (former) Korg Nautilus and my Korg Kronos with no issue. I plugged into the front twon jacks just now and even it max volume from my RD, I had to turn the gain knobs up to about the 10 o'clock position for it ti be managable. I noticed that some of the synths/other sounds are significantly louder than the pianos/Eps. Did you notice any of this when you owned the RD?
I just tried plugging in via the XLR outs and the difference was DRASTIC. So much more output. Is this normal behavior between the 1/4" outputs and the XLRs and should it be this big a difference?
@@TimothyVazquez-r4iYou beat me to it. Yes the XLR output is louder. You can also check out page 9 in the Parameter Guide (not the owners manual) and see that you can boost the Input Gain for the EQ - per tone.. up to 15dB, which will raise the overall volume even if you don’t make any adjustments to the 5 band EQ itself. Also, keep in mind that you can have 8+ layers active at once, and so you need to be able to adjust those individually. To that end, you can adjust each ZONE, from its individual fader. And as for the question about differing volume levels… Roland is pretty bad about that across all their gear. Sorry to say.
Hi, I will soon listen to the full demo so thank you for this. I was wondering whether you played the synth lead section of this! It’s the one gripe I think I have against this atm, I really love this keyboard, but it gotta have a good synth lead on there to really get me all I need. I’m gonna be playing with a talk box too so I always wondered about them.
super demo coolll,diego italy
This was very lovely to listen to, thanks 🎉👏🏼
how can you use this feature?

23:56 Inner Wind in the Motif XF
Amazing!
I think we'll get to hear the effect better if you hold the notes thru ramp up as well as ramp down and then up again without letting go of the long notes. You kept cutting off your notes every time you ramp down. Hold some more long notes thru ramp up & down & up again. That's what a Leslie is meant to do. Thnx.
Hi looking fit more categories of Yamaha montage M such as Pianos ,FX,Drums styles etc ...thanks
Hey! Two quick questions. Is the Motif XF soundset shown here, also in the Yamaha M8X? Also, is this the full Motif XF sound set? or just a "best of" collection? I can't find any info online regarding this. Thanks! :)
OMG!! When I first heard the first few notes, I thought this is definitely a real grand piano placed inside a box. I love my Roland gear. But after hearing this, I'm soooo tempted to ditch my RD300sx and snag this up.
Good job. Amazing instrument
@@abbezwaal thanks!
The leslie sound at 3:35:25 sounds just like vascular sounds (the blood flow in the artery) 😊
Does it has an arpeggiator or some keys to strum the guitars like Ample Sound Vsti?
@@trancosomarcus not to the same degree as software, but yes.
@@benallen5967 keys for strum UP and dowd while the left hand does The chords? My MODX nas the articulations on the assignable buttons and in some patches I can do the bend with velocity above 100, but I don't have this ability. For a so expensive synth I will expect this.
I’m planning on ordering hammmond xk4 soon
@@JuliusParker-v6q enjoy!
Do you think that juno x is better than roland jd xa. I dont know what to buy . Thanks for all
@@joseroldan1389 From a purely hardware perspective, definitely. But I prefer the System 8 to both.
It is possible to change the rymth speed???
@@joseroldan1389 yes, easily.
Good explanation about the X. It is possible to use the vocoder with all these scenes sounds ????
@@joseroldan1389 thanks! Yes, you can easily do that.
Great job 🎉
im planing to buy NS4 and will go for 73 key version due to smaller size. I would like a compact version due to weight being noticeably less. But what about the feel? isnt it too soft for a piano player? Also keys seems to be smaller in size. im used to Yamaha weighted keys, but no shops nearby has Nord compact to feel its keys.
@@InBoostWeTrust7MGTE good questions. So, the compact, like all models of the stage 4, has triple sensor contacts in the action, so it is far more responsive than the previous stage models, and that helps with the waterfall semi-weighted action when it comes to pianos. If you’ve ever played a Hammond organ with waterfall keys, that’s the size of these keys, and though a B3/C3/A100/M3 Hammond of course will feel different, the basic mechanics of the action are the same. If you’ve ever played a modern Hammond keyboard, it’s the same action. It does take some getting used to the spring loaded feel of the compact, but if you are worried about size, the stage 4 also comes in the 73 key HA variety. Personally, for weight and ease of use, I prefer the compact with a nice weighted controller or other 88 key keyboard below for piano parts - though I do also play it just by itself.
@@benallen5967 thank you for an amazing answer.
My SK concert grand sounds wooly sounding. How did you get it to sound so bright with no post?
@@jonos138 that is simply how these samples sound in the MP7SE.
@@benallen5967 Doesnt sound as clear on mine, but I have improved it using virtual technician.
Hello, iam from Portugal. I have a modx8+, and i notice a hissing or white noite when i use some fm sounds, for example fm dx pianos, speccialy if I aplly compressor. The noise comes only when i hit the keys, and I ear it more in low velocity dinamics playing. A guy told me thats normal thar noise its the fm-x engine, its the synthesis wave form. MODX8+ is my first yamaha keyboard. I dont like that dirty noise , because i use a lot of eps, i love the fm eps, but hate that white noise coming during the time that the note until it decays. The YC88 does that same noise on eps in fm engine? Iam thinking sell the modx8+ and buy a yc, but iam afraid that noise could be a normal noise on all fm engines. Can you give me your opinion? I have a video on my channel showing that noise, please see. Thanks. And congratulations for you channel.

I didn't like the recent Roland digital synths...but THIS one starts to impressing me, the more I listen to it via YT.
So, it is essentially a ZenCore controller, which can also play and install other ZenCore models... technically speaking, it can't do anything you couldn't do with your computer and Roland Cloud.. but it is the "Juno 106/60" vibe that makes it work.. it is just fun to play honestly.
@@benallen5967 Yeah, it seems that it still can add some "magic dust" to the engine, to get a great sound. Nowadays I listen to a lot of synthwave stations, it would fit perfectly into such set. But now i have enough racks already, lol. Thanks for the impressive demo!
Almost every single video I’ve seen on this keyboard sucks terribly,including yours
And almost every single comment you’ve ever made in the entire time I’ve been corresponding with you - including at Sweetwater…. Has been negative and full of criticism. Ever consider not having anything nice to say should mean just keeping your thoughts to yourself?
@@benallen5967 well I think I agree with you Ben,doesn’t matter what I say? they will keep putting out these worthless crap demos,they are doing a disservice to a wonderful great piece of equipment.
@7:41 you mentioned the compressed sound. I saw the same issue on Anderton's Music Co. Nord vs Yamaha battle. Yamaha's aren'ts usually compressed and I can't find any official information from Yamaha on this. Have you figured out if it's a setting or issue with the 1.2 update? Deal breaker to me but considering buying.
@@timvazquez2851 I wouldn’t let that stop me from buying the YC-88. Even just as a controller it’s absolutely worth it. The more I play Yamaha boards in general, the more I encounter the exact thing we are discussing. Yamaha does indeed compress the samples pretty heavily, whereas Nord seems to give you a velocity switched raw version of the samples. Yamaha is awesome for the money, but Nord (a Yamaha endorsed artist friend of mine recently admitted) has the most realistic and best FEELING piano response. Mind you I’m not talking about the action. The YC-88 has one of the best stage piano actions ever, and I even prefer it to the Roland PHA-50.
Were you able to figure out that "compression" on the piano sounds you mentioned in another video? Watched a piano comparison between the Stage 3 and YC by Anderton's Music Co. and figured that had to be some error inside the settings of the board? Considering buying but that's kind of a deal breaker for me. Thanks!
Some of these sounds take my breath away, in a good way. Great playing btw. I really like your U1/H1/pad. I’m going to use the same control layout, organ on expression pedal, pad on wheel control and try to get as close as I can on my MODX7. BTW, just tried the YC73 for the first time a few days ago and it’s just great. I can’t afford it right now but I wish I could.
@@darrylday30 I appreciate you taking the time to watch, and comment. Thanks for the compliments! I would actually skip the YC73 based on its rather dismal history with users, but I can say having had 2 YC88s personally and having stewardship of 3 others as a church tech director, the 88 key is absolutely solid and holds up very well.
@@benallen5967 What’s going wrong with the yc73? I love the form factor (it fits in my car) and I like the lighter action.

Personal opinions aside about quality and value for money, this is, in my humble opinion, the best demo of a Nord I’ve ever experienced. Buy that man a drink. He must be exhausted. Well done sir. 👏👍
@@bobrobertson9547 I appreciate the compliment!
3:13:53 sitar - nice!
@@TheJFerg24 thanks!
Thank you Ben! You did a fantastic job! I will go for the Nord. Your video helped me a lot.
Thanks for comparing, it's very useful. Doesn't NORD feature damper resonance like the YC88 does?
awesome sound .. just crazy how much potential i hear... good video
I dont understand, but some of the patches sound so bad, as if im listening to a cheap pair earbuds. And then some of them sound amazing and full. I feel like half of the patches would be pretty useless.
You are likely picking up on the weakness of the first Montage and Motif patches - the new ones, that sound best to ME, are the Montage M additions.. but frankly, this is not a SYNTH based synth. Yes the new synth engine is good - but it won't be great if you are going for Junoesque sounds.
@@benallen5967 yes I think you are right. The Motif XF patches and some original montage patches do sound thin and lifeless. And yes I agree the new ANX engine is a very sweet sounding synth by itself. But yeah, I guess my point was, if someone were to spend this much money on a stand-alone synth, then they'd be a little disheartened. But thanks for doing these demos, it must have taken a lot of time. Cheers!
I see here a lot of folk are commenting on the the price of $5000 I assume that is American dollars Here in New Zealand that price tag is $9000 at the local music store When I first saw this I just about fell off my piano stool However if you put it in a context in about 1988 I brought a Roland D-50 for $3000 In today’s money that would be about $9500 I can remember saving up all my pennies for that one, believe me I can’t imagine taking a $9000 synth out to some gig. I’m sure it’s a beautiful instrument but not sure it’s for the road.
I've taken it out many many times with zero issues. I treat it well, and it has a waterproof hard case. I've had issues with Nord keyboards with weighted actions, but this one has the waterfall action and like my Stage 3 before it, has been rock solid.
Does it have or need a sustain pedal? This would be the perfect keyboard for me
@@Nonyabizz01 it needs one. The triple pedal and the SP-2 options, enables pedal noise, which I personally love. See this page for pedals. www.nordkeyboards.com/accessories/
It comes with a Nord SP-1 pedal, but you can also purchase an SP-2 or triple pedal depending on your needs.
@@scottm1238 that’s not the case actually. None of the Stage 4 models I’ve purchased had a pedal included (in the USA at least)
I’ve purchased a NS4 HA73 and HA88 and they both came with SP-1 pedals in the keyboard box.
@@scottm1238 I’m happy for you!
