I love your reviews. Your playing is great and right on the mark stylistically for each instrumental sounds you are recreating. Much appreciated because you can not always get to play things before buying them these days. I look forward to a review of the numa compact 2X
Wonderful review! I sold a 65 lb Roland Fantom X8 (about 80 lb in its case!) and replaced it with a Studiologic Numa Compact 2. I have no regrets whatsoever! While the keybed action of the Numa Compact 2 will never be mistaken for a real piano, its size and weight more than make up for that! I'm still blown away by how light it is. PLUS, it has one thing that most digital pianos do NOT have: AFTERTOUCH! :-) The sounds that come with it along with the effects are outstanding. Thank you for a great review, Sir. Your videos are always informative and your playing is awesome!
@@el-bov8034 keep in mind that these are Hammond organ/synth style semi weighted keys. Before i ordered mine, I'd read an erroneous article stating that the Compact 2 had (non hammer action) weighted keys & the Compact *2X was the one with the synth action due to the organ section, but they share the same action. You will be very satisfied with this instrument if that isn't an issue. the samples are more natural compared to my RD-88 & MOTIF XF via a PA/headphones, but the the Rhodes & FM EPs are a bit... meh. Wurlis are very nice, though. I'd recommend this instrument. Guitar Center has two used units for under $400 to give it a 13 day trial at least.
@@Daring2Win Thanks! I'm not looking for hammer action at this point. Need a good-quality, 88-key for all types of production music (Bonus points ofr the included sounds and speakers, for non-computer playing). This seems to fit the bill. When I have enough money (A bit more space, also), I'll buy it from Amzaon. Any issues and I willl be able to send it back. Thanks, again :)
Sir you are marvelous and your review of this studio logic compact 2 is the best on RUclips . Altough I may speak a different language than you, because music is the universal language, I understand you perfectly. I tip my hat to you, for you are most excellent ❣️🎶🎹
Can someone please recommend me to a 61 key version of this kind of keyboard? I'm looking for a real piano feel but also something I can control the sound on the keyboard itself.
El mejor review sin duda Lo mejor que tiene este teclado es sin duda el precio y las prestaciones. Muy ligero, un teclado con buen sentimiento. Los sonidos de piano me gustan bastante, dos de ellos son los que me terminaron de convencer para comprar este Numa compact2. Tengo muchos pianos de escena de alto nivel, lo que cuesta este es una risa para lo bien hecho que está en muchos aspectos. Como nota negativa, los órganos no están tan bien, aunque con un buen simulador de Leslie dan el pego. Buena opción si quieres un piano de escena todo terreno, que no pesa nada, tiene unos altavoces integrados de 10w que suenan bien para andar por casa o en sitios pequeños.
I know there are english subs which I do so appreciate! Hats off to all involved in that. I just wanted to highlight that if you turn on AUTO translate and set it to english. It's almost perfect now. It used to be so bad like he'd talk about how great a trumpet is and the translate would say "tom has a pet sound is grey tea box" and you'd almost be able to understand what was being said from the odd word. Now its just perfect sentences! I'm wondering is auto translate just using the normal subs or has it really gotten that much better?
Thank you for the review. They should have made 73 key version . If the idea is to be compact and take it to gigs without a car.... There isn't a practical need for full 88 key bed for a portable gig keyboard.
It feels great. The touch response is good for piano AND you don't rip your hand up doing organ smears. And at $500 range street price this is the perfect blues jam keyboard.
sounds kinda bright and digital, but it's cool. this thing has usable sounds especially for church. that phaser ep is horrible tho. I'd still buy it. light, and it resembles a midi controller so I'd have this thing at work. from making beats to playing at shows, id use it with maybe a mx49 from Yamaha to accompany
It has that kind of Roland sound to it, where everything sounds slick, smooth, overly synthetic even on the acoustic sounds. I'm more interested in knowing what the key action and feel might be like, although I appreciate I should find somewhere to demo it myself for that kind of thing.
I see yours is an older post on this topic. Did you end up getting one? As for somewhere to demo things I totally agree. How can you lay out money to try a couple grand in keyboards without hearing it first. SO now I do this: If you buy it thru guitar center you have 45 days to play with it in your own controlled studio environment and get a full refund if you don't like it. I used to think that was sleazy until I realized its their way to not have to stock things and train employees.
For $500 a is great, you can't buy a Nord piano stand for that . Is a road Piano, also is a good hotel practicing tool! Sounds better than many $1000 keys!
He is the best keyboard reviewer ever
😀
Easily the best review I've seen for this keyboard I've found so far, awesome!

Can I ask how loud the keys are i.e mechanical noise. Just fed up of hollow plastic lumps that sound like I'm thumping the desk with every note 😩
@@el-bov8034 The keys do not make much mechanical noise. My Fantom X8 and Yamaha CP300 made much more mechanical noise than the Numa Compact 2 does.

Great review, and thanks for the English subtitles.
Great compact thing. Well done, Studiologic.

Thanks for the demo. Very well done!
Best review, answered all my questions. Awesome skills. Thankyou.
you are THE BEST!!! Great review and I think you're so charming!!
タッチ感を知りたかったので、とても助かりました！
ありがとうございます✨
欲しかったところです。レビュー感謝します。
I want that snowboard! 😜 lol it'd be nice if they made a 73 or 76 key version. Great reviews and playing!
Great keyboard and great musician u are man! Hugs from Portugal :)
A great review... good job.
it's about the same size as the SL88 but the SL88 is MIDI only. The Fatar keybeds feel really nice.
Really good review!
Great Job - Thank You !!!
お値段もなかなか良心的でこの性能はもう買うしかないですね笑笑
Arigato! Greetings from Romania!
I've searched the price of this piano. I was actually expecting it to be at least 1000 with all these features.!!
UJIIE-SAN!! I missed you!! :D
Hell I'd like this in my place...just a space saver to noodle on.
セミウェイトの88鍵でアフタータッチがあるというのは珍しいですね...音もなかなか！
ありがとうございました
很棒！面板比较简洁但是功能相当强大！便携性也不错~更重要的还是带了扬声器，十分良心！

This is pretty nice, my MoxF8 just bit the dust, and I need something else light weight for gigs.
Your keyboard stand probably weighs more than this! :-)
its to havy...

Sabes si se puede usar como controlador midi?
Claro
Yo me lo acabo de comprar ese numa compact lo tienes ?
Pues terminé vendiéndolo, hace un año mas o menos.
Lo usaba poco, solo cuando salia de viaje
thanks a lot good job

for me its perfect...i put it in my car smilling with only 7kg compact board...
agreed..! i would be even happy with a 61 version with the same keybed.
Yeah, I'd buy a 73 or 61 in a heartbeat. I really don't need 88 keys. Still might get one though.
Scriabin Bartok
Why do you guys want a 73 key keyboard??? I would run out of keys :-(
Me too or 61.
would love to know if you can run plug ins off a laptop off this thing... how would you call up sounds?
Can it play piano and drum beat (if it has on board voice) together? Tks!
Amazing thing is that this hot keyboard is only $600...
demo monster godzila amyzing ❤❤❤❤ GREAT INSTRUMENT GREAT DEMO ❤❤❤
Esse teclado eu consigo usar um piano e um pad e baixar o volume separadamente.
Tu tem esse modelo? Como conseguiu comprar no Brasil? Tem pra entregar pra todo o Brasil?
Does anyone know what this keyboard is like to play? Never played semi weighted keys before! :)
It feels great. The touch response is good for piano AND you don't rip your hand up doing organ smears. And at $500 range street price this is the perfect blues jam keyboard.
what speakers are you using please - exact make and model

sounds kinda bright and digital, but it's cool. this thing has usable sounds especially for church. that phaser ep is horrible tho.

Does this have smooth sound transition?

The Korg Kross 2 needs to hurry up and release so he can do a review on it lol

左側にレバースイッチが２つ見えますがもう１つは電源スイッチでしょうか？
2年前の書き込みなので解決されているかも知れませんが…
これ、自分も欲しくて調べたんですが、どうやらピッチベンド相当の機能があるようです。
日本語サイトには一応”スティック1：ピッチベンド・コントロール”
”ステック2：モジュレーション・ホイール or FXコントロール”とあり、さらに
バックパネルに電源スイッチがあることからピッチベンド相当の機能があると見てよさそうです。
Boa noite!alguém pode me ajudar .
Why you speak so funny 🙂
The keyboard is full of bugs and almost unusable in a studio, and almost -no tech support,keep that in mind
I’m thinking of buying one.
What bugs does it have?
Henrique Nord C2D it hasn’t any. Great keyboard.
For $500 a is great, you can't buy a Nord piano stand for that .
Is a road Piano, also is a good hotel practicing tool! Sounds better than many $1000 keys!
