At what point did this video go from being a comparison to just having fun on the ROLAND!!! Loved IT!!!! xD
Right!? :D The Roland just seems to invite playing and getting creative with it :D
My heart died when you played that "something simple in D" at the very start of the video, beautiful voicings and playing Jack! My laawwwddd!!! 😭❤🔥
The Casio CT-S1 is a terrific MIDI keyboard controller too. It has my favorite semi-weighted key action. The keys are responsive, expressive (e.g., for playing acoustic piano patches), and quiet (most MIDI keyboards in this price range have noisy action). You can run a patch cable from your external sound source (iPad, laptop, sound module, etc.) to the Audio In jack and use the built in speakers which are sufficient when practicing or playing with a few friends. And if your external sound source ever fails, you have the built-in sounds as a backup.
Pretty sure the cts1’s keys are completely synth-action, no?
@@joshball8674 It depends how you define semi-weighted. This is the definition I tend to use (I found online at the Sweetwater site): "The semi prefix might seem odd, but it’s a designation of the mechanism used to simulate weight rather than a declaration of how much, or to what degree, the keys are weighted. Like synth-action keys, semi-weighted keys are based on a spring-loaded system. Occasionally, they’ll incorporate smaller weights to add some heft, but the springs are implemented to add resistance." The keys on the CT-S1 definitely have more resistance compared to any almost any synth that I've played.
I like the Casiotone CT-S1, but it's not a full-size keyboard and I often make mistakes. I hope Casio will update to a full size keyboard (12key=165mm). Does anyone know how to adapt the keyboard to different sizes?😊
@@user-rg9gk2qn6h I am measuring approximately 6.4 to 6.5 inches (163 - 165 mm) per octave on my CT-S1. This falls within the standard width range.
I bought the CTS1 (coming from an old yamaha psr450...) I love it, especially the piano, rhodes and the organ sounds). It's lovely!
Perfect demo. Thanks for posting.
love this video. I'm gonna have to subscribe. Just getting back into playing the keyboard. Bought a used Casio Privia S1000 and a brand new Casio CT S400. Having a blast with them
I am a synth head, with lots of synths giving me all kind of quality sounds and quality keybeds. Still love the CT-S1 (red in my case). Instant on, great piano sound, no screen, speakers sound surprisingly good. The keys are too "plastic" for my preference, but still very playable.
In my opinion there is no contest, the Casio is just miles better, in terms of sounds and feel especially. I've been an owner of the CT-S1 and reviewed it on my channel as well - appreciate that Jack is conveying his honest opinion right off the bat. Cheers !
It would be perfect if Casiotone cts1 was a full size keyboard (12 key=165mm), maybe we should make a suggestion to Casio
@@user-rg9gk2qn6h you mean the casio keys are smaller?
@@markymarkf2459yes
@@markymarkf2459internet says it is full sized so i wouldn't worry too much about it
The Casio is better for sure. But if you want one to use both as a standalone/portable keyboard, and a midi controller, the CT-S1000 is perfect because it has the pitch wheel and mod knob and has extra midi capable knobs. Sometimes I just want to turn on and play for a quick little jam. And sometimes I want to go all out and create music in Logic Pro.
This video is amazing hahaha, loved watching Jack relish all the classic sounds coming out of the Roland 😄
Great video. I have both of these and love both. They both have similar sounds, the Go:Keys have a lot more, but they each have their unique features, which makes having both worth it.
Can you confirm if the keys are normal sized?
Are they normal sized keys?
Somebody in the comments says the Casio cts1 has smaller keys but the specs online say it has normal size keys.
I would have to bring both out and measure them. But to me, it doesn't make much of a difference. For some, especially formal piano players and on 88 weighted key instruments, that may make a difference. But then there are Minikeys instruments like my Yamaha PSS-A50 and Roland JD-Xi, The Yamaha uses the Reface Series keys, again I would have to bring those two out, but I think the Yamaha keys are smaller.
Several months back I tried several midi controllers and ended up getting a Casio s1000v. I considered the Roland go keys. It had a really nice texture as far as feel and key width but I didn’t like the key depth. I also tried the Casio s1 but decided to get the s1000v for the extra sounds. The keys on the s1 are a little skinnier than I would like but are playable when it comes to keyboard depth. My fingers also slip off the Casio more than the Roland. Both have good sounds though. Some sounds on the s1000v are ok but get much better as you layer them. A person really should try both keybeds for an extended time before buying.
I wouldn't call the CT-S1 a beginner piano. It has solid sounds and is meant to be minimalist and intuitive. You have a button for the Piano category, the Organ category and a button for each of the two E. Piano categories as well as a button for each variation within those categories. Intuitively, you can find the sound you want after a short period of using the keyboard without needing the manual. You can also record, play the recording and stop the recording with one button (REC/PLay/Stop is sequential, meaning the next action is based on the previous one; if play is stopped the next push of the button will trigger the record mode; if you are recording and you push the button, recording will stopp and the track will start playing etc...). I think of it as a street smart type of keyboard. The action is kind of an organ or Rhodes type action. The Rhodes sounds are amazing. You feel like you're playing the real instrument. The B3 presets are good and the action helps with organ playing. Plus it has bluetooth audio and MIDI so it's very easy to play backing track from RUclips or from audio files on your phone. The real beginner piano is an acoustic piano. A beginner doesn't need different sounds. I would put this keyboard below the Yamaha CK61 ( I own both of those keyboards) but in the same category. There are some great reviews of this keyboard on youtube including on this channel as well as Masataka Kono and others.
Can we use the CT-S1 with any DAWs like FL studio or logic?
I bought a Casio battery at a garage sale for
$5.00. It had a great piano sound.I love my Roland but I think I will go with the Casio portable for my grandkids.Thank you!!!!! 12 grandkids! Maybe I should get both!
As someone pushing middle age, it's mind boggling how good cheap keyboards sound nowadays after suffering through some pretty dreadful gear back in the 90s (though oddly collectable nowadays!)
Don't know if you have ever noticed the closed captions of Jack's audio... but this one begins "hello and welcome to Anon TV, my name's Jet Duckery..."😝😝😝
review the ct s500 and show hiw mucho the sounds can be synthesized! an expression pedal too. It's like a 1000v without rhe vocoder which I find annoying because reviews only put focus on it...
WHAT?! What happened to Casio? When did they got this good? I’m really surprised by how good it sounds.
The releases a new GoKeys this week. Go keys 3 with Zen Core library, Bluetooth and
better speakers. The rhythm section sounds amazing.
The Roland Go uses the same core sounds, or sound engine from the Phantom. So does that mean some presets really sound as good as a $4k synth?
Im suprised you're comparing the Casio Casiotone CT-S1 against the Roland GO:KEYS. My understanding is that the Roland GO:PIANO is much more analogous to the CT-S1. The Yamaha Piaggero NP15 would really round out a shootout for the best overall affordable piano-like keyboard against the CT-S! and the GO:PIANO. (AFAIK It's either the CT-S! for slightly better feel or the NP15 for slightly better sound, so long as you don't mind it being bizarrly wide for a 61key.)
me perdi nesse Vídio simplesmente ameeeeiiiiiiiiiiii ouvir o vc tocar o Roland é contagiante!!!!!!!
The Roland seems to just have more vibrant natural (as in, how the original instrument would sound) sounds. With the default piano, for example, you can almost see the piano wire vibrate where the Casio sounds come across as both more flat and slightly over-saturated at the same time.
really like the sound of the Casio but the Roland might cut through a mix more to be honest.
How did you manage to get Eno to come in and hold down keys for you? 🤨
Came through a Virginia Plain interstellar wormhole, awesome stuff 🔥
Jack! Please help! Ok. Guitarist here. No key loving friends. Got the Casio second hand on the cheap. Pretty happy overall. But Sound are not quite doing the job. Got plenty of old tablets and laptops lying about and presumably I can Velcro a tablet down, get sone inexpensive cables and sone free or near free software and Postpone upgrading my keys (in order to buy more guitars from Anderyons, of course!).
But what and how???? Could you do a video?
You'll need a data cable compatible with your tablet or laptop that has a USB mini on the other end (the USB A port on the Casio is only for the optional Bluetooth accessory). Once you've connected the two together the Casio CT-S1 will become available as a midi instrument on your tablet/laptop. You'll need to find virtual piano software that is compatible with your computer (either as a standalone application or intergrated into a wider piece of music software) but once you do and you select the Casio as the controller you're able to use any sound you like (and there's endless options on every platform.) What's the issue you're finding with the sound out of interest? Is it the same problem both through the intergrated speakers and headphones? It's not on the same level as a premium digital/virtual piano but most people tend to like it.
The Roland Go:Piano is more comparable to the Casio CT-S1.
My ct-s1 keys have worn smooth after 4 months. Still great keyboard.
9:55 I actually started belly laughing. 😅 I have actually never heard anything so ridiculous in my life 😂 epic vid thanks team.
I think I can tell you where the bonnet bee might come from. Roland JUNO DS keyboards. Brought one. It was no JUNO. Not sure if I'm ready to forgive them yet, but half the presets on that thing sounded like those crappy old PCM CASIOTONE keyboards.
we need a same comparison with casio s1000v
The Casio s1000v is better than the Roland GoKeys. I own both.
@@ChrisT-O In what ways? Thanks for helping out!
To me, Roland Go sound like one of their old models (E-16 comes to my mind) with new face.
Go 3 or 5
When you engage the Casio me just goes: " oh yeah Rhodes ... Wurly ... etc. "
The Roland has a sound on its own and i like these creations ...
So both do have "a stand"
The Roland sounds like a Prophet and looks like a 1986 Bontempi keyboard in Rumbelows window
The Casio has a nice piano sound, but the other sounds are much richer on the Roland.
Best keys are A major and C# Minor.
the casio more beautiful sound
I brought used the Korg SP170S 88 height hammered keys , build in speakers , it sounds and feels surprisingly good and looks slick , simple to use for beginners the perfect one 😊
Synthesizer choice , the simplicity of the Korg Microkorg Xl Plus great sounds and more than enough capable to deliver on its own great performance and quality sound for the price of 3 a 4 working days 😊
Next purchase and because i know everyone loves Nord and everyone have sugested , i decided , it will be the Korg SV1 88 😊 why? Well, because i love simplicity and quality that are realistic usable and affordable to myself 😊
Those might all be great products but even the cheapest of the 3 you mentioned is twice as expensive as the Roland Go:61. I'm happy for you but not sure what your comment has to do on a comparison video between two entirely different products :D
Go keys just sounds very acoustic so go keys for me
I bought the Roland because I'm poor, and I regret it. It sounds fine, but I don't like the action, and I would like to make my own layers.
Woah looping keyboards and Burger King same my man same
That blessed boy claims he's 38. I almost can't believe it.....😮
Roland go keys way better 💯
I think Roland is better
Roland wins
casio is 1928288 miles better, roland is good but costing the same, even more expensive meh
Me knows why you don't like the GOKEYS: it aint no NORD red
Roland sounds much better...☝️🤷
