I got a lot of older ones from thrift shops very cheap. I normally rebuild the actions with new felts and sometimes have to change the key sensors, even new lcd screens, on older DGX, and YDPs it is an other option if you have the skills to do it, granted most people do not that is why there many keyboards given away. With MIDI you can use them as controllers to refresh the sounds.
Today many new keyboards are very affordable too for those who want the latest.
This is impressive and interesting. Which country are you in please?
I'm a gigging pianist that plays with bands, and I love the Yamaha CK88 (I actually have the CK61, because I primarily use it as a backup portable board, but besides the action and size, it's identical to the CK88). The effects are essential for getting a good mix with a band, but they're also useful and so fun if you're playing alone. The electric pianos and effects sound so much better than the electric pianos I'm hearing in this video. Maybe it's too much for this audience, but I'd suggest people give it a try. You might not realize you need the easy customizability until you try it. The extra fun helps keep you practicing longer.
I remember deciding weather I should get the P125A or I should wate for the P225. I decided to get the P125A because I was quite unsure if I was going to like the P225, and during the time I already liked the P125A, however when I whent to the store I found the Yamaha DGX670, and when I tried it the sound was so much beter I compleatly shiffed to the DGX. I did try the P225 once it came out it sounds good, however the DGX is just more powerful, and more piano like in my opinion🦊🎹🎶
@Jeremy, please make a video on FP30X vs FP60X vs FP90X
All excellent choices! After playing a Yamaha P80 for 20 years (speaks to longevity and build quality) I went with a Roland FP-E50. The action is a little heavier than I'm used to but it has lots of voices, and doing what I need it to do. The FP-E50 could use better connectivity, no audio over USB. I appreciate the onboard speakers. With the old Yamaha it was headphones most of the time. Anything Jeremy recommends is a serious contender!
My bottom rack is a P-70 for clean grand and EP sounds, still sounds great! then synth stuff on top rack with PSR=EW425
My thanks to Jeremy for this interesting comparative review. The subject is an important one that hits the spot for students seeking portable digital pianos. There are of course home pianos too, which are nice to own, and tend to look nicer in a living room, but in terms of versatility and bang for your bucks, portable pianos are the go-to instruments, particularly, these ones reviewed here, which are a step above the absolute basic entry level dps.
I agree with Jeremy on most things said here, but would like to point out a few issues concerning onboard speakers. First of all, nominal speaker power can be highly misleading because the volume difference isn't linear. 14 watts vs 20 watts vs 22 watts - there is probably little difference in terms of effective output. Also 2x7 or 2x10 is better than 1x14 or 1x20 for the same reasons of volume being non-linear. Then there is the issue of distortion. Can you use the volume at max without distortion? With Yamaha dps you always can. I can't comment on others because I haven't owned them. And Yamaha pianos mostly have tweeters in addition to warbler-woofers.
I did a gig on a P45 (6w+6w) in a modest concert hall with an 8-piece jazz band, unamplified except for vocals. The P45 was just loud enough, because the simple speakers pointed down at a solid wood stage floor.
Some lower partials were lost of course, and this leads to another issue - tone vs volume. No matter how powerful, small speakers are always a bit dissatisfying. To bring out the full range of a piano as well as possible, it really needs a good soundboard or five/six speakers - three sizes, probably in pairs. Accordingly, most portable pianos need extra help. For close range, the addition of a modest 8" powered speaker or two will make a huge difference.
Finally, acoustics vary tremendously. A plush, carpeted home/restaurant/pub can be much harder to play in than a well-built concert hall.
Great job, Jeremy. You put in work.
All the presented devices are good, but I like Yamaha better. Well, it feels like Casio is a more budget-friendly tool in relation to the rest.
As a beginner which one would you suggest considering I'll be keeping this for at least a decade.
@@Swapnilvarma if you're willing to spend a bit more I recomend the Yamaha DGX670🦊🎹🎶
Great video as usual, Jeremy. As I always say, the winner is all of us with so many choices with great offerings from the various companies.
It's a hard choice, since they all are so excellent, with lots of common features, and also unique ones. I wouldn't mind having any of them, I like them all, but would probably go with Roland, or the Yamaha for the sound and the great app.
On a side note, Roland just added to the choice confusion with the release of the new, updated Juno D from the original about 24 years ago. This is basically a more affordable, simplified version of the latest Fantom or Fantom 0 series. Great sounds, features and prices. $900 for the 61, $1150 for the 76 and only $1300 for the 88 weighted keys.
Now it's a hard choice between the Go:Keys 5 or spending the price for the Juno D. I think I will stick with the Go:Keys 5 first. If I want to get the Juno D , I will get the 76 for a wider range. And if I finally want the 88 weighted keys, get the RD-88 ES. The difference is I think the Juno D does not have built in speakers like the other two.
Jeremy, I forgot to say, all three versions of the Juno D can be powered via a portable USB power bank. A great one would be the Anker 20K mAh one I use. That's a lot of playing time!
@@jjacob25101 impressive🦊🎹🎶
Great video! in your opinion which ones have better rhodew and hammond sounds?
Hey Jeremy, good comparison of decent entry level keyboards.
I had the ES110, the predessor of the ES120 and most of my remarks are still relevant:
1. It has the best keybed I’ve ever known, I liked it better even than the pricier ES920
2. The UI was dismal. Unless you play just Piano and don’t need any choices, it was very difficult to navigate, I ended up with little notes up and down the keyboard, you have to use button and key combinations for most things!
3. The downward firing speakers were lousy, and just cause they amped it up in the ES120 with more power, it’s still downward firing
My conclusion and advice is, if you can, make one more step up: the Kawai ES520 is phenomenal, and these days on eBay they’re blowing them out, so about the same price as the ES120. It has a great UI, wonderful rich sounding speakers, even more of the really good piano sounds, and the keybed is a slightly upgraded version from the ES120, so you get that same wonderful action (I like fast, easy to play dynamically responsive actions) and even with all that the weight bump is only about 3 kilos/6 pounds.
I usually find myself on the ‘best-bang-for-the-buck’ side of things’, but having given up keyboards ‘cause they didn’t provide an overall satisfying experience, I think my recommendation upgrade is solid. Perhaps the next comparison video you approach it like this, ‘cause while the all important actions and sound quality are sufficient for piano students on a budget, the User Interface suffers on all of these boards, and the onboard speakers are not nearly as satisfying as the next step up.
Another, different step up: the Numa Piano X73/X88 are a different vision. Unfortunately it has no onboard speakers, but this board has over 200 quality sounds onboard, AND, it plays 4 sounds at once, AND, the UI is very friendly and fast, AND, it has a built-in 4 channel mixer! The Numa Piano X88 and the Yamaha CK88 are both in the $1500 range and give a different focus than the boards you reviewed. Personally, I don’t want a board unless it can split/layer 4 sounds, which is why I went for the Numa Piano even though I have the Kawai ES920.
It's funny because some of us hate the ES110. I rather hope that the (newer) ES120 is better. Supposedly, the keys are less wobbly anyway. I didn't like the ES520 much, and preferred the action on the ES920. I tried all of these briefly (except the ES120) in a showroom about four years ago. I prefer my P-255 to all of them, but it's just my subjective opinion.
Last year I bought a P-121 as a travel piano. I'm very happy with it. It's probably the most portable piano (with a graded weighted action) of all time.
@@Zoco101 sound quality felt the same to me. I might have to try it again though🦊🎹🎶
Jeremy, could you please do a shootout of graded hammer action keyboards regarding stickiness of the keys? I suffer playing slippery keys (especially the black ones), and few manufacturers (I believe) offer rugged, sticky keys for bette, firmer grip when playing. Thank you very much!
Some of the Casio dps have a very matt (but textured) finish on the black keys. It annoys some players but might suit you.
@@Zoco101 my Kawai ES110, and Yamaha DGX670 both had textured black keys, however due to heavy use the texture on both of the Kawai, and Yamaha's keys faded away🎹🎶
Psr i300 or Psr e383 , which is better
Hi Jeremy! Please make a review of the new model of Yamaha PSR SX 720/920
Can you do a review on the s models like the psr s700
Sir please talk about new Yamaha sx920 please
Nice ❤❤❤
@JeremySee So I have narrowed it down, which is the best choice, the Yamaha or the Roland? Or is it a toss-up?
I can't decide between kawai and Yamaha. Any advice ?
I recomend trying them out in person before making the decision🦊🎹🎶
Personally, I think it depends on how good you are at piano. If you're just a beginner, then all is the same in terms of quality and functions, better pick the cheaper one. When you're better at playing and your ears are well trained, then you may consider better and more expensive options, even an acoustic piano.
I'm a beginner and went with the Korg Liano. It's cheap, light, and its sound and keyboard quality serves me well enough.
@@RenanRischiottofrom what I know Yamaha does have standard sized keys. Could you please clarify?🎹🎶
@@nguyenduc6288I personaly would recomend any beginner to starrt on weighted keys if budget alowse because yes though you can learn piano on nonweighted keys you might find your self trying to relearn your tecnique once you want or need to transition to a digital piano with weighted keys or an acoustic piano. Personaly for me even if I'm practicing on a digital piano with weighted keys I still need to adjust a bit when I'm on an acoustic piano because they still feel different to play, however the adjustments I have to make aren't that big compared to if I was practice on nonweighted keys🎹🎶
These comparisons can be very subjective, so it's important to try them yourself. I recently bought a Roland FP-E50 just based on reviews, and I ended up hating it. Maybe it was a defective unit, but it sounded terrible to me. Returned it to a store and tried out everything there and ended up with a Yamaha DGX-670, and I'm very happy with that one.
There’s a store offering a used/like new roland fp30x. Are used digital pianos a good buy? What should I look out for to ensure I am getting a good piano? Thanks.
New FP-30X sell for about USD $500 + tax. So a second hand FP-30X is not worth more than USD $400 (as you may not have much warranty remaining).
Check for clicking keys. There was a batch which got stored badly during the Pandemic, and the lubrication slid off the keys.
@@pianowhizz who's selling it for $500? i don't see it for less than $700.
I know that sound what are you playing at 2:58 ?
Name the piece starting from 57 secs
What song are you playing at 17:35? It is so nice
Gymnopedie
0:59 piece name ?
I’m confused between P145 and B2 digital piano. I’m getting both at difference of $54. B2 is costlier. Which one should I go for sir. Please, I need a genuine advice.
There's no right answer. It's purely on what you prefer so just try em out in stores and whatever works for you, go for it.
P145 is better than B2. Yet in this category check Roland FP10. This would be the best option in thus Range
I suggest the Alesis Prestige. The action and sounds are pretty good, and it has proper lineouts, plus a recorder. I have tried it next to the Korg B2 but slightly preferred the Alesis Prestige. Or get the Alesis Prestige Artist if you can afford it.
