Kurzweil has been making pianos for more than 30 years. They care. I use the Kawai mp7se. As attached to rh3 as i am I’m considering doing a trade and paying the difference. I tried the modx 8 and was not a fan. It seemed too confusing. I don’t like GHS on any yahama. As a pianist for my church, this looks long the perfect choice
@GardenProg I do think yamaha has the best pianos but you can endlessly tweak a kronos to sound however you'd like, there's thousands of sample packs for sale on the website..
I love these kind of videos showing the best next thing and development in musical instruments history, but I don't think this one will get a ranking on the leadersboard...
Why Kurzweil would add super knob... Kurzweil has VAST that is much powerful than super knob... These pads are for sound category, not drum pads... Nice try :-)
Nice, so basically in your mind you add a sparkling big knob and....you have a superknob! This is a wrong and a superficial quote. that knob is for navigating through sound categories... Beides...generally speaking, the V.A.S.T. archiitecture used buy kurzweil is way more flexible and powerful than the MONTAGE/MODX superknob... but this not the case of SP7, wich uses a new synthesis architecture called A.T.S.T.
No Montage or Fantom can hold a candle tooo any Kurzweil with V.A.S.T. much less sonically or otherwise, knob or noknob¿even the 30 year original K2k's sound is still culpable in comparison. Yamaha, Roland & korg are still catchin' up IMHO, IYAME & TOME UI's notwithstanding dude
since they invented the Montage all the brands try to imitate it, Roland with the new fantom and now kurzweil with this one. That motivates me to buy the Montage because why do I want a copy I have the original? Although I already have the montage I would buy it twice
Kurzweil is the ORIG of the acoustic piano sound with the K250, like it or not: it's pretty much a fact¡ & the big Japanese three have been doin' their best tooo catch-up ever since. The Nord's are copying those most basic concepts set forth by the Kurzweil. VA never would have been either without'em no matter what anybody says , I'd be willing tooo bet the developers of the original Lead would be compelled to secretly concur but ofc never admit to it IMHO kid's¡! thanx folks
@@angelog.spicolaiii8021 super cool story, bro, but the commenter has a point: look at how "the original" tries to imitate the look of the Montage in both their K2700 workstation and SP-7 "Grand [workstation-ish] Piano"
Nope. Sorry Kurzweil, but this piano sounds are absolutely not reaching the standard that is out there now. Nord, Yamaha, Korg,... not even close. The samples sound really antiquated, remind me of the 90's (when Yamaha already stepped up their game). I used to love Kurzweil at the time, the K2500 was a beast... but those days are long gone.
Hmm. I do have the same feeling. The piano sounds like the older Casio before the px s1000 and newer series started. Have to say though, the design looks better and more modern previous SP6 . Design and look and features are far ahead of the piano sound
What are you basing this opinion on. I’m a professional pianist of 30 years and after trying this instrument I think it’s FAR superior as a PIANO to similarly priced Yamahas and has a far better relationship between keyboard and sounds then Nord (which is grossly over rated) I think Kurzweil comes closer to the real thing than any other digital (except for possibly Roland). These keyboards are top notch for my tastes.
@@adreanfarrugia7414 I base my opinion on also being a professional since 35 years. And I was not talking about feel, repetition, keybed, etc. I was just judging the authenticity of the sound. And my Nord Stage sounds significantly more realistic, so does my Keyscape VI. Taste, it all comes down to taste. And this one is not on my list, sorry.
Not impressive . Maybe for the 90 s. And piano / strings comobo :)))). ???That's 90 s wow. Not 2002. Ok . There is a piano and that is Nord . Any Nord . And 5 is huge.
Never even would've been any Nord (especially VA) if Kurz hadn't come along first¡ U people need tooo understand that Kurzweil changed the biz, reset everything, set the bar & left'em all scrambling to catch up. Maybe not for the easiest of learning curves but for sound quality they're hard tooo match & there's really no valid argument that can be presented that makes this point any less than a fact even opinionated jargon can't change that point from being true, & in the end that's all that really matters kid's¡! thanx folks.

@angelog.spicolaiii8021 I own the Yamaha cp88 and does have better key action. Also the controll interface is very similar to the nord. The piano are sampled pianos. I had played with many Nords. The keys are very low quality. Feels like playing the native instruments mk2 s88

Beautiful sound!
But howzit compare with the K2700 ? This SP7G still sound's amazing folks
Super piano sounds,,😍

Sounds great. If only Kurzweil would introduce a 73 or 76 key version for easier portability.
Muy brillante el piano 🎹
Nossa, que teclado lindo.
I don't know man I love my 10 year old kronos still at this point. That board is infinitely expandable..
Kronos pianos are empty imho
@GardenProg I do think yamaha has the best pianos but you can endlessly tweak a kronos to sound however you'd like, there's thousands of sample packs for sale on the website..
I like that sound
What good keyboard is Germán good sound of piano from Argent
I love these kind of videos showing the best next thing and development in musical instruments history, but I don't think this one will get a ranking on the leadersboard...
Greetings, this piano has a question, does it port USB? Can it play midi tracks? thank you very kind
Is this better than Roland FP60x?
The kurzweil PC88 piano is the greatest and cannot be duplicated !!!!!
Kurzweil should introduce touch screen to entire product range please kurzweil
Is ATST a light version of VAST?Or total different?Or the future?
That's what I'd like tooo know¿ 0rig V.A.S.T. is still stellar & viable evermore in my book thanx folks
1 Piano sounds like a previa keyboard. Looks good though
So let’s take the super knob from the Montage and add the Fantom drum pads. Nice try Kurzweil.
Why Kurzweil would add super knob... Kurzweil has VAST that is much powerful than super knob... These pads are for sound category, not drum pads... Nice try :-)

@@thekurzweil ...couldn't agree more¡ I need to research & familiarize myself a little more with A.T.S.T. though thanx dude
That was my exact impression when I saw this board.
One point to not buy is this complete glossy front Panel.
mid voice ifont ilike but. high and bass.very well
since they invented the Montage all the brands try to imitate it, Roland with the new fantom and now kurzweil with this one. That motivates me to buy the Montage because why do I want a copy I have the original? Although I already have the montage I would buy it twice
Montage: 63 lbs, $4000

The piano is perfect. The design with all the screens and lights ( like most keyboards) are awful.

@Collen Flarity I think u kinda misunderstood my comment¿ RayK just took all the things you listed, culminated & enhanced them into their highest semblance not tooo mention other developmental techniques that led to things that took years for other manuf's to figure out or have yet tooo.
