Honestly I find it hard to believe anyone could go wrong with either one. Both sound great and it just comes down to personal taste IMO
Tyros 4 the sintesator from the heaven! Every day i say thanks for developers from Yamaha!!! Bravo!!!!!!!
Your comment helped me understand what to look for in a keyboard.
I always thought that Yamaha keyboards were fantastic sounding, until you pointed out the fact that they seem to have effects already added.
This has changed my thinking on Yamaha keyboards completely.
As you say, the natural sound should come first, THEN add any effects after.
I'm just so glad that you pointed this out.
I have learned SO much from peoples comments here on youtube.
We MUST protect the internet, at all costs.
4:38 That choir sound on the Yamaha is insane!!
I would also say that it depends heavily upon the genre of music being played on both instruments!
It is interesting when direct comprisons are heard. Everyone will have their own favourite and it will always be a varied response. Thanks for the message!
I agree. The better synths is a matter of subjective opinion. I can hear a slight difference, but really the result is more the skill of the musician than the synth. If you're not a professional musician and you don't need the absolute latest instrument, you can get one of these pretty cheap now (about $2,000) on eBay. I intend to get one or the other, but I'm undecided. I've heard enough side-by-side comparisons of the Tyros 4 & 5 and the Korg 3X and 4X to know how they all sound. Now, I'd like to see more a comparison of features and what all the buttons do, but nobody is doing that.
Excellent comparison; well done and thank you! Each instrument has it's purpose. Personally, I like the Tyros much better. I am not a sound engineer, and the styles and voices sound simply great right out of the box.
But the main question is: which instrument is the most fun playing? Look at how many RUclips video's there are for the Tyros 4 and for the PA3X. The numbers speak for themselves.
Korg is my instrument these days and their technology and sound quality is improving all the time. Now I'm waiting for HD video multimedia to be in my stage performance instrument as well as the great sound.
Thanks for this great demo (and the invested time to record it). It really gave me a little opportunity to compare the Korg with the Tyros. I am a happy Tyros 4 owner, and for so far this demo confirmed me that I've made the right choice :-). The only voice I liked more on the Korg was the Real Strings with a beautiful release and a nice voilin change I hear. The strings on the Tyros 4 are too short and I need to add the release time everytime I use them. Something to improve in de next Tyros!
Thank you for video! KORG and KORG again.
It´s called ACCOMPANIMENT which is some kind of funcion to play your song along. By pressing buttons you can control that backing like an Intro or an Ending
Coooool！
BTW,what situations
Should we use these instruments?
Thanks for your comments. We did not want to make it so long that it got boring to watch but wanted to make sure we got through enough sound and style comparisons to make it fair. Problem is there is so much in both products it is difficult to know what to choose for comparison purposes!
I am playing on stage for over 20 years I used to buy Yamaha keyboards before but since 12 years I am using korg pa series first pa80 then pa800-pa1x-pa2x and just recently bought my pa3x. its dream machine! i am not saying Yamaha tyros is bad! its great keyboard but not for me. always before i buy anything new i try other companies what they have to offer watching you tube video's can be educational but when you touch the key's yourself is totally different story. the feeling the sound response and even operating the keyboard is all related i found out for me is only korg has it all.
Justin has a very fine jumper collection.
the choirs on the Yamaha are to die for
Uns anos atrás o teclado mais realista na minha opinião era os Roland, mas a Yamaha tem se superado
Very hard. I just cant decide. They both great.
Great Comparison!
I think Tyros 4 is the winner.
Fantastic video! I like both Korg and Yamaha, but I have to say the Tyros 4 wins for me.
Klasse Demo, ... wunderbar !
I think the Korg MAY have a bit better pure drawbar organ, but I am really sold on the Tyros based on this demo. Wow, what a difference!
Ребят подскажите, я на стадии покупки, какой аппарат лучше для создания музыки в стиле синт-поп, дарк вейв, техно денс, транс? (в пределах 50-70тыс руб за бу )
Я пока остановился на Roland fantom -6, YAMAHA PSR S670 и KORG PA600
Мне важно удобство создания музыки, интуитивно понятный интерфейс, ну и главное соответствие стилей и звуков аппарата указанным выше направлениям музыки.
Tyros 4 the Best!
Yo he tenido la oportunidad de tocar en ambos, y ambos son estupendos, lo que pasa es que dependiendo de qué instrumentos, unos son más brillantes y contundentes que los otros.
Los strings verbigracia, mejores en el Tyros 4. Sin embargo todos los órganos drawbars se ven más contundentes en el Korg. Y así podríamos estar comparándolos sin fin...
¿Qué con cuál me quedaría? Con un TyrosKorg, es decir, con uno que reuniera lo mejor de ambos, porque los dos poseen muy buena instrumentación y sonido
Both instruments sound great, a darker sound coming from the Korg, at least in the youtube recording; Both probably sound different listened to live, depending on choice of speakers as well.
BTW how did you make the recordings? I don't see any usb stick plugged into the Tyros.
this last style is best very nice on yamaha tyros 4 my chosing is tyros 4 and newer korg pax3
The Korg’s advantage comes in its capability as a midi controller. However, Tyros is on another level as a stand-alone performing instrument.
I hear the difference as a musician at the Korg sound and Tyros. I like the Tyros and based on it line Yamaha S-series. Tyros plays cleaner (also Yamaha) and more comprehensive than the Korg. the more they will always be competitors. Classical instruments better at Yamaha, 30 heard synthesizers 25 firms and can not judge the sound quality of all synthesizers, which I had. Now Korg begins to lose its leading position in some respects, and styles they are now almost at the same level.
Both of them are Awesome !!!!!
by the way, you play very nice and makes good demos.. keep it up like to hear them :)
I noticed that it is just the matter of taste, and how some one likes a sound better. While some people feel that Tyros has a better sound, some other feel that Korg has a better sound. I think all of it is because how an individual perceives and likes a sound.
I'm a big Fan of Korg Products all the way,,buy you can't underestimate the power of that Yamaha Tyros. Both sound good..Tyros sounds a Tab bit Richer in the Acoustic section in my opinion....So if i had to choose between the 2 i would probably get that Tyros...
Tyros 4 much clearer sound Love it.
But sometimes too much studio sound.
Winner is Tyros. Because the sound is most real, all the sounds are better than korg.
Hi is pa3x better than pa1000 and why? Thanks
i love em both , they're just uniquely great, the RAPH say that , peace
tyros is the best
What is the cords for the latin part?
Tyros sounds so real. Korg sounds like a typical kb sound. thaks for the comparasion.
Damn Tyros is amazing ..
I had the chance hear them both and bought Yamaha, pa3x is no league for Tyros!!
I liked the guitar in the Yamaha.But there's something about the KORG's keys!! it gives an additional touch to the sound.
Hello guys! I 've played them both for many live performances and I must say that both of them are the best a professional musician can buy. Yamaha Tyros 4 has more sweet sounds but it doesn't make them more realistic. Korg pa3x has more realistic sounds plus better performance on stage. The huge difference between these two is that the Tyros 4 has better libraries I mean better styles. It's more professional. Korg has simple styles but it's easier working a style on a korg than on a Tyros.
Tyros 4 is amazing, what's its price??
Has anyone ever made a successful commercial recording on one of these things? If so, are the intros, breaks, endings, patterns that are pre-programed into them from the factory copyrighted or are the free to use from commercial usage seeing that you brought them with the unit?
yam sounds more realistic, also in a warmer sound room. the korg sounds like its playing in a metal trash can, which could be the sound environment setting.
I most certainly agree with your comments .The Tyros5 is a much "warmer" sound.
question about the brass sounds ... when the person plays the keys the brass sounds ok, but then when he hits the demo/fill in button the keyboard plays some stuff on its own and the brass sounds much more realistic and alive this is because the brass parts are really squealing and stuff like that so my question is how do you get it to sound that good while playing? for an example of what i mean go to 06:40 on the video, thanks
I like it...
Tyros 4 for all of them......
BTW Thanx for the demo!!!
Yamaha Tyros 4 is the winner. Better sound, much more natural and realistic than Korg PA3X. The sound of korg PA3X looks like it comes from the box and the yamaha looks like I'm listening to live. Undoubtedly tyros 4 is the winner. I would love to have a Tyros 4 but it is very expensive.
I said most pros, not all pros....:)) Its great to hear that you're using your board to its full capacity....and that's a point to note down.
Both are amazing in their own way. Tyros 4 has more polished sounds so you can use it "right out of the box" for live performances or studio sessions (I think Yamaha is targeting people with little or no experience when it comes to programming and making voices and styles). In my opinion, PA3X is for people who know their way with sound engineering. PA3X gives you more possibilities with sound tweaking. You can get them both to sound exactly the same (if you know what you're doing on PA3X).
50-50 split, they have there own unique character, however the Yamaha has too much Reverb on everything, I think the korg is dryer and more natural, and for that reason I would buy the Korg, Good well recorded demo though,,cheers Paul
the Tyros killed it.
Por peso para transportar si hemos de tocar en algún evento, me quedaría con el Korg. El Tyros 4 es más engorroso de llevar de aquí para allá...
I have both. T4 is great. Pa3x is great. I play the Korg more. A few bars or a few tinkle on the keys tell you nothing. It's the whole performance aspects of you and the board. Play with passion, any board will blow your mind.
Yamaha! I've never been disappointed by it :)
o korg pareceu mais limpo .. pode ser a equalização e volume .. mas, são muito parecidos.
Now that's a very malicious comment... I am a Tyros user, and I love it. I use the vocal fx and all the great features of the Tyros in my studio. Not just pressing the start /stop button...
I think the Pa3x has a great sound too... These are 2 major arranger keyboards.
So keep that in mind, and don't make stupid judgements, because you are only disgracing yourself...
And btw. the pa3x has a start and stop button what you can press too.
Even the guitars at low velocity, on the PA3x, the initial transient/attack is kinda "delayed"? The electric bass too. Looks like they slowed the attack of the ADSR envelop or something. On the T4 U don't have that kind of stuff. The slowed attack on strings is another story (lol)!!! Tell me guys.
Only reason I have Korg is because the abilty and the option for working with it, if you creat sounds and styles. You have good options then.. Otherwise I would go for Yamaha long time ago.. One thing to make notice of is that the soundcard/board on the yamaha is more richer/fater and gives more detalj to every sample.. And i would describe the korg muddy sounding and thin in the styles. To you guys that says yamaha sounds like studio.. Thats even better if it sounds like studio in live stage :)
You gotta check price .weight portability, rythms etc i preffer Rolando then tyros then others first than korg
T4 & T5 the best
Depends. About authentic sound, Ketron Event and Genos 2 fights hard, Ketron prefers real audio loops, Yamaha recreates audio loops.
I own both.Tyros 4 comes with it's own 2.1 speaker monitor which is better than Korg PAAS amplification system, optional monitor for Pa3X. But, try Pa3X with Roland CM-110 or CM-220 cube monitor, CM-110 is more than enough for your Pa3X. Compare to Tyros 4 sound I would say that they are equal or Pa3X slightly better.
Well done this one, well done! I couldn't stop laughing! Really! This video is about the still-war of Tyros with PA and you have a Roland! Funny ma, just funny!
KORG PA 3X, the best !!!!
what is the first music name?
I like Tyros......
When it comes down to it, and you need to fine tune stles with multiband compressors, multiband parametric eq's, diff distortion dsp's to any sound etc... pedals and expressions to certain sounds and others not, etc etc. yamaha technology gives you a handfull of tools that other arrangers can only dream of... even if some sounds here and there are not as great... usually for the lack of aggressiveness, but you can mess with the sounds a lot on yamaha
Tyros Gospel style....oh man.Awesome!
great,thank you.
Yamaha Tyros 4... absolutely ;)
korg is good but tyros is amazing!
O Korg é insuperável
It depends on what U play and how U wanna play it. Both have great sounds, have their weakness too but I think that Yamaha sounds more realistic because of it allows U to play "realistically"! Listen, I set a gig for a scene last month. Several bands played. A 88 kb were pluged via MIDI to different KB so the player didn't know what KB was playing!! The fact is that to choose the sound that fit their envie most of the time Yamaha sounds were choosen!! It was my Tyros 4!! So....
I love the TYROS 4.....
Well, for a musician its simple. If you want to take the one that sounds real, Tyros is your choice. It always was, for a true musician. Thats what a musician dreams: a keyboard that can record a performance with REAL instruments. This always was my choice, although i played both Yamaha and Korg keyborads. Thats how i got convinced. I checked myself!
why does not demonstrate the tyros 4 Super Articulation 2 Voices? Demo is cool, both Yamaha and Korg arrangers are brillian
Personalmente posseggo una Korg PA3X. Comunque ho fatto ascoltare questa 'sfida' ad altri e il responso è stato sicuramente a favore di Korg. I suoni della Tyros sono assolutamente più piatti, più impastati. I suoni della PA sono brillanti e ben definiti, non c'è storia. GRANDE KORG SEI LA MIGLIORE!
I am producer and compocitor and l'll definitely I stay wt yamaha tiros.REALISTIC SOUNDS!
Now nothing can beat the Tyros 4! This video prooved it again! Yamaha reached the highest level and its not over! Not even yet! Another wide victory for Tyros! Everything on Tyros is a lot more realistic than any Korg, any Roland, and above all, everything its much more reliable! Everything inside can be edited! And my favourite, Tyros isn't limited like Korg only as an arranger: is also an extremely efficient synthesizer with all its parameters. There's nothing you can complain from the inside!
Tyros,sons mais realísticos e mais limpos, já tive vários korg,mas voltei pra Yamaha.
E o tyros 4 e 3 são relíquias tem edição de SAMPLER que até mesmo o atual Genos não possui
Two monsters!!! I Want anyone.
This demo says it all! No need of demos from their respective brands! This is a live comparison that simply shows who is better. And of course, Tyros 4 won again this contest.
love TYROS4
God damn it God damn it I just bought my Pax3 2 days ago, fuck it fuck it the Tyros is fucking amazing
I have the Pax3...but I want the Tyros 4...
Tyros 4 very good!
Woooo the guitar on Tyros.. Lorrrrd
ambos son muy buenos y tienen buen sonido pero definitivamente...tyros 4 tiene los detalles en los sonidos que los hace ver mas reales!!! yo estaba por comprar el pa3x pero con esto definitivamente me quedo con mi tyros jejeje...
To my opinion, Tyros4 sounds better. Its sounds are more open, rich and clear. Korg sounds are somewhat more "narrow" and not so accurate. Though, both instruments are great! Thanks for the comparison.
You meant "warm" ?
Have enough money? Do it! :)) It will be an interesting experience using them both for music producing!
Hi everyone, i use korg and yamaha allways in parties and here is my defferent.
Korg is like Mac and Yamaha like Windows both of them has their own style.
Korg ! The PA3X is a computer/studio......you can change everything, the Quality can be much better if you know how to do that. In Korg is more inside. The pa3x has also superb articulation, i missed a lot in this clip. Korg need better speakers to hear the difference ;)
My impressions. Piano: PA3X, Strings: PA3X, Organ: Tyros, Guitar: Tyros, Trumpet: Tyros, Sax: Tyros, Choir: PA3X.
la même sauf pour le piano ou je trouve le son du tyros plus à mon gout
Both are brilliant but for me I think the Korg is slightly in front, i felt the Korg had clear and precise sampling especially the nylon guitar, you could close your eyes and think it was the real thing.
TP
IN my opinion, Tyros4 is the best arranger for home musicians (like me). I actually own one and it's amazing. On the other side I owned a PA500 and I'm thinking about a PA600. I miss the Korg Drums, realband like styles and some unique sounds not found at Tyros. Since PA500 plays styles similarly to PA2X, I believe PA600 plays styles similarly to PA3-X (miss expensive features that I don't need). For PRO musicians, I think PA3-X is the right choice - FULLY customizable while Tyros is far behind
