    Thank you outstanding video capturing all this piano can do. I had wanted to learn how to play and after some research my husband purchased this piano for me ]last Christmas in 2022. I played around with the app the first week. I then launched into trying a lot of free music lessons on RUclips, learning about how to read music and trying to learn a few songs for next Christmas. It was enough to just use piano setting during this. 10 months later I stumbled across this when I was trying to see if it came with back tracks to play along with silent night and I forgot and didn't realize all the features. This video gave an excellent overview. Now I'm going back to the using the app. If you are a beginner and you buy this piano.

    Thank you for this review. I had to sell my beloved Yamaha baby grand when I moved and just want something to practice on while in my apartment until I purchase another home and grand. I don’t need anything too fancy, but as a more advanced pianist, I need something with weighted keys, expression, etc. This seems perfect. Will check out the 60 and 90x too just for comparison, but leaning toward this one. Thanks for the wide variety of playing. As I prefer classical and pop, jazz tutorials do little for me. You explained things very clearly and it was a pleasure listening to you. Thanks for the review!

    I have been following the FP-#0 series but was set on the 90. It would appear the 30x does everything I could possibly need and more.
    Is the action worth the price jump for the 90x? Or perhaps a better question would be, are there any features missing in the 30x from the 90x that I would miss playing at home?

    Thank you for the best demonstration of the Roland FP30X on the internet! I watched a myriad of demonstrations, some from Roland product specialists and other dealers, before watching yours. I just bought an FP10 primarily for my son (though now, my wife and I, will learn, too). I started to doubt my choice of FP10 (which I ordered on 29.11.23 (two days ago)). I realised that although the FP10 is a great beginner piano, at some point we’d need to upgrade.
    Additionally, the FP30X is more feature rich than the FP10. So I convinced myself last night, to cancel the FP10, and this morning, I ordered the FP30X. Your review will now convince my wife my decision, despite costing us a couple of hundred pounds more, was the correct decision. The way you played well known examples, rather than doing scales or banging a few keys, like other reviewers, really showcases the value in this piano. If I’d known about Bonners, I’d have come and bought from you. Well done on an excellent demonstration and review.

    • @robintyson591
      @robintyson591 2 месяца назад

      Great decision. More voices, rhythms, higher volume output and other features. But the main thing for me is that you can get a beautiful stand AND three pedals. That you can never get on the FP-10. That said, I personally have an FP-10 at my mother's home (I visit her quite often), but my main piano at home here is a Kawai CN29. Love them both.

I am self-taught and not a professional player, I just play for my own amusement. All I really want is a nice acoustic grand, Rhodes, strings, pads and some percussion. The price is not an issue but I don't want to get bogged down with too much technology, buttons, settings and the like. I had a Korg SV1 once but I never played it as I was overwhelmed with it.

    With split keyboard when you had the upright bass sound on the left, is there a way to turn up the bass split in volume so it's a little less quiet? Or is it a matter of adjusting how hard you hit the key?

    Can you transpose with just a button, one up, one down. Or is it a feature on the Roland app? For example if I want to go up a key for the final verse of a hymn, I just want quickly to press a button.

    Hello.
    On my roland fp30x, tone c2 is much louder than the other tones. It has a dynamic response but is different from other tones.
    I made reset. Installed new system program version 1.02 but no change.

    I wonder if the f30x surpasses kawai s110 in dynamics

    What melody did you play for Epic strings + Concert PIano?

    If we play with our eyes closed on a rp 701 and a fp 30x, will you hear a big difference in sound quality when the technical sheet is identical? If it is to pay more because there is the price of the furniture, I choose the 30x. Does my reflection make sense? Thank you and sorry, my English is very bad.

    Can I have your and others honest opinion. I am a beginner and plan on buying a beginner piano like this because I don't know if I can completely tell the difference in sound and key action yet. But if you had the money, would you buy the Kawai ES 920? Do you think it sounds and plays a lot better? Thank you.
