When Roland wants to give us a nice sound for home or stage in a keyboard, then I always accept it for me like my favourite stage keyboard, for everything, for every stuff, forever. You rock Roland, good job.
🤣🤣🤣 welcome to the world of Roland! this company has become one big money pit. I made the mistake of buying one of their VSTs after owning an RD-88... not only do they recycle all of the sounds in all of the instruments, so there's an irritating amount of overlap, but with their vague marketing you never know what you're getting. A word to the wise, if you own ZenCore do not buy the XV-5080 nor the D-50 VSTs. then there's the matter of all of the SR-JV 80 expansions being sold a separate vsts for the same price, whereas Korg, intelligently, packaged the classic keyboard vsts with expansions included.... Again Roland=out of touch money pit
I have an original RD2000 expanded, there are hundreds of pianos included, and many of them sound excellent and can be modified to your taste. I've compared them to Kawai, Nord and Yamaha (I've had them all) and the RD offers the same (if not better) sound quality, unlimited polyphony, great keybed (built like a tank) and versatility. Price-wise I would say that this is still one of the best stage pianos available. The only con is its weight, because it's on the heavy side.
@@borispradel1037 you must work for Roland. Yes the RD2000 has hundreds of pianos included and they all sound basically the same with maybe a slight eq adjustment. Throwing thousands of sounds at you has been their game forever now and it's getting old. Their pianos can sound fine in a live mix but solo they are severely lacking.
@@blakeabernathy4051 Yeah, I wish I worked for Roland 😂. If you think they sound basically the same you must have issues with your ears. In any case, an instrument is only as good as the one who plays it.
Im sure @blakeabernathy4051 doesn’t have any hearing problems, many professional musicians share the same thoughts. It is clearly one modeled ac piano eq tweaked. The upright sounds different though, maybe Roland put a little effort on that
A midi controller and a smartphone cover the full gamut of all Synths in existence. If you want to be pedantic, there's no reason for anyone to buy hardware of any kind anymore.
Korg did the same thing with the Kronos from 2012 thru 2022 and nobody complained (Kronos, Kronos X, Kronos 2, Kronos LS...) Korg owners had the option to buy the upgraded sounds without buying the new board. Yamaha has done something similar with the MODX+ and the Montage M and I don’t see anyone complaining even though you cannot upgrade the old model and will need to buy the new keyboard if you want to have the new additional features. Yamaha doesn’t give the consumer any software upgrade options 😢 This is just the way the industry works nowadays. We have seen it from Microsoft and Sony with their mid upgraded consoles. At least original owners from the RD2000 can upgrade just like Korg have donde since 2012.
As an owner of a lot of Roland gear and a big fan of the company, piano wise I'm happy enough with my RD600. Built like a tank and will still out last new tech.
Tbh keeping the hardware the same makes perfect sense, it's already spot on, and upgrading the software is far more eco than pointlessly remodeling the packaging every couple of years 💪🌍 and these new VPiano sounds are outstanding. Hoping to see them on lighter boards though as the 2000 is SO big it's really not a practical choice for solo regular gigging pianists who aren't famous enough to have roadies to help / have a spare Arnold Schwarzenegger hanging around, and these piano patches should absolutely be the standard from Roland now 👌
Yeah it’s cool to see the expansion added to the older boards. You sometimes feel slighted when you get a new board then two years later something better comes out that makes you wish you waited. 😀
Antique furniture gets increasingly up-cycled these days. Rather than replace the 2017 vintage RD2000 with a new product (minus the silly left hand end section) it looks like Roland are wringing out as much as they can from this slab (and its little cousins) as part of their jumble sale.
Nailed some points there. Was hoping for a new EP, Wurly, Clav and various organ engines and an update to the UI. Instead we get the same hardware with just two preinstalled expansions. 🤦♂️
Nord and Yamaha are way ahead in this game. I don't understand why Roland insists on not having a smaller stage piano and with an organ section. I mean, it's time they update the VR730
What’s the fuss? Yamaha did the same essentially with the Modx and ppl barely made fuss. This is a stage keyboard that’s made to work with your software and hardware. You’re paying for the technology and connectivity moreso than the sounds. Great board to run a rig off of. This with purchased Roland cloud plugins or any other software equals a Fantom. I have a RD88 and definitely going to grab this soon. Also, Roland makes sounds that are meant to be tweaked. The presets be ok but it’s definitely a patch programmer’s brand.
@@MarinSubasic Same here. Have you heard the RD2000 built in version? Looks like the RD88 ex has it now as well. Doubt if it’s as good as the original (especially with chorus) but if it comes close I might pension off the MKS.
Hmmm...I find the pianos don't have enough sustain and kind of sound like ice picks. It is typical for Roland though. I find the Montage and MODX pianos to be smoother and the Nautilus pianos to sound more real. If you want to use a laptop or ipad on stage I find Pianoteq to be a little more realistic with a lot of sustain. But to each their own.
You guys at Roland really need to step it up and make something innovative, like the guys that made Polaro piano. With the right software its uses and musical abilities would be limitless, an all-in-one instrument/studio.
I was a Roland keyboard servicer for 36 years. When I retired in 2022, Roland's 88 key piano action was still having issues with the hammer upstop cushion getting chopped by the keyweights, primarily by the heavy handed players. Can any tech out there tell me if this issue has been fixed by Roland? I would buy one myself as I love their samples, but am concerned about action issues.
It sounds great but it has just 128 polyphony, a 3000 dollar board i feel should have 256 and the cost is just way too much. I’m waiting for a board like this to come out in the 1500 dollar range then i may be interested. Great playing and demo! By the way , at @9:51 the RD piano 1 sounds like a harpsichord to me
I’ve been back and forth on selling my Juno DS and getting something else. 😀 It’s a great board looking back I wished the audio interface was class compliant so I could use with my iPad and record to computer without using the 3.5. I was tempted to get the fantom 07 a few times but held off as it is a lighter weight keyboard and I can play drawbar organ on it. Still looking for that one board that completes it for me. The Juno has plenty of sounds and expansions. Would be cool to run all the axial expansions from usb on it live. That would be enough of an upgrade in itself.
Its identical lol. Teh only difference is the german grand is loaded at factory (which I have already) and the new essential upright which WILL be available for download (paid) for the original RD2000. Everything else is identical.
All the piano sounds in these new keyboards just get cleaner and also sound more artificial. I believe that even the best tuned pianos are still a little out of tune and we can hear the vibration from out-of-tune pianos when we're playing them. This is what makes a piano sound "real".
So true, there’s no wood elements heard in the sound. Just a simple triad played on a real piano sounds so rich. Seems like every keyboard company wants to invent the most clean sounding piano
RD2000 is old. RD2000EX is still just the same old RD2000 with the same dated sounds. Newer would be Korg SV-2 and Grandstage X, Nord Piano 5, Yamaha YC88, Roland FP90X, and so forth. They are badass. also, no one is going to attempt to travel back and forth between venues with any kind of acoustic grand, that is absurd in so many ways.
I only use the rd2000 as a controller. So the built-in sound source is not important. So I don't feel the need to upgrade. Is there no keyboard more advanced than the pha50?😅
IMHO, It would have been nice if Roland had put metal ends like on the XV88, Jupiter 80, etc. Also four new distinct V Piano models. The hardware/controllers are good enough.
HELP QUESTION for whoever can answer !!! I literally just bought a used RD2000 a day ago 7/23/24. Are these all new sounds for it in this video ? Reading the comments, it sounds like there's only 2 new sounds. A German one and an Essential piano ? Why would Roland add this video of all these other sounds if not to showcase them off as all new ??? And I only spent an hour so far on the RD2000, (busy till the weekend) but for all the players who say that the sounds are terrible.... Isn't the fact that you can layer 8 sounds and EQ etc etc etc to thinkin up the final sound and pretty much make any possible sound to your liking, a really good aspect of this keyboard ? If anyone can help me feel justified in my purchase, please do. All I see is very negative feedback on here and how terrible the sounds are... Thanks !!! Have a great day !!! :-)
The EX version only adds two new expansions, the German Concert expansion and the Essential Upright V-Piano Expansion. All the other sounds are available on the RD-2000, and the two new expansions can be purchased and added to the RD-2000 for ~$200USD. The negative feedback is largely due to Roland releasing the same piano with two expansions included and bumping the price up an extra $100 dollars. Hope this clears things up.
not much. The german grand is installed at factory (but thats been a paid update for the RD2000 for over 2 years), and theres a new essential upright V-Piano, which will be available for the original RD2000 as a paid download. Everything else is identical
La verdad yo no veo ninguna diferencia importante en este nuevo piano de roland RD 2000 EX en comparación con el anterior RD 2000, lo que si es muy diferente es el precio excesivo y desmesurado que tiene este último, la verdad no lo compraría a no ser que lo vendan al mismo precio que el anterior.
This has got to be Rolands laziest update, zero hardware difference. Didn't change the outdated screen, didn't make it compatible with zenology sounds, didn't update the mostly horrible 1100 sounds it's comes with. Literally just an ad for their latest v piano sounds.
Not really. Apart from the better GUI on the FANTOM, the RD2K's keyboard is better calibrated for the V.Piano than the ones on FANTOM. Also, with this new upright model, the RD shines out against the FANTOM by having an extra piano model (an Upright to be exact).
@paulmapp8306 yeah talking about sound, either could win since sound is subjective. My comment is mostly referring to innovation. Clavia is really working to innovate, whilst roland seems to be happy with just extending the product life cycle. Cheers
@@josephmbiri9731 interesting. I havent seen any innovation from clavia since the first boards really. Everything else is slight changes. Thev'e been "basically" the same for 20 years from what I can see. There are certainly other brands that ARE truly innovative. Arturia, Expressive E, Waldorf for 3. Interested in how your are seeing things - different viewpoints are always usefull.
Sample sound quality wise, like.. stay in the same place for the past 10 years? Nord's piano samples blast this keyboard out of the water. Great playing still can't hide the left-behind piano samples quality. Roland should just focus on the synth sounds instead... or their other magnificent line of product such as the SPD and Boss products. People with money will should choose a Nord instead of an RD
Very good!!! But why not a simple digital piano with only these great piano and e piano sounds, light, 73 keys and portable? No wheels, no organs, some RealTime controls for sounds, eq and effects, Little display and this good keybed
@@ablesam of course, personal preferences. I dislike keybed of all instruments mounting fatar tp100. I feel It fatiguing, muddy and hard to play. So also crumar Seven and dexibell (that both sound very good). Cp73 is a good instruments but nothing that can make me sell my cp4. I Have to try sv2.
Nord better. I can freely download new grand pianos, organs, pads and synths and install them in the keyboard so quickly and easy. With more sound quality than this sounds.
UNETHICAL!!! I have owned several Roland keys throughout my career. RD500. RD600, several of RD700 series, and I currently owe 2 RD 2000s; several Fantoms, a Jupiter X, several VKs and a VR. I specifically leave one RD2000 in south america so I dont have to carry it back and forth to the US. Before Christmas, I've paid for the German Concert Expansion, and I was very pleased with it! The problem, in my case, is that you cannot upgrade your RD 2000 that had already been upgraded with the German EXP unless you pay for another 200 dollars upgrade that includes the same German Piano EXP but not the Upright EXP. With that, Roland, abandons old faithfull customers like me, by devalueing their own products in an enethical way! Not cool!!!
let's be honest... since rd700nx Roland made just trash. I owned several of them (rd800,rd1000,rd2000- all of them after few weeks i sold). Mechanic since rd700nx sucks. im pianist and that old machine was nearest to the real piano play feel. I think was last one made in Japan.
Sounds so artificial. With each update the piano sounds are sounding too synthetic. Just another trick up their sleeve to fool customers. Same old sounds packaged with new name EX. Nowadays all of them are going back to 80's and 90's. But the keyboards in that era were fanstastic even their hardware, the features like aftertouch and keybed feel and etc etc. Korg even forgot to put AT on their Nautilus at first...hahaha
Your electric pianos are a joke. cmon roland you can do better! You cant get away with always rehashing rom sounds from the 90-2k's. Update synth structure to more than 4 layers. more velocity layered expressivity and key off's - this is now the minimum standard.
I just bought this keyboard. I was a loyal fan of a different keyboard producer...let's nickname them grok. They had some really great lead sounds on all of their synths.No this Roland.. I love the sounds, except for the lead sounds. I'm going to say Roland gave zero phucks about the lead sounds. All of them are ridiculously unusable. Please hire some synth guru to reprogram them to emulated GOOD famously recognizable patches. Then sell them. These factory lead sounds are all just miserable to use. For real.
Same standard muffled Roland piano sound.The guy is playing very nice, and the RD produces only this girlie playing sound. The rhodes sound are still very very good.....but all araound, there is no development anymore in Roland products, and this is now for many years. In short: YAWN
Are serious?! Why even compare the two? One is an acoustic instrument that makes sound through the vibration of strings struck by hammers, which resonate within its large, meticulously crafted soundboard, creating a rich and dynamic tone. The other is designed to be small, compact and convenient to transport while attempting to imitate the acoustic original with extra features appealing for gig-musicians and studio enthusiasts that need to control other devices.

After seven years, this “update” must feel embarrasing even for Roland. Pathetic.
Sorry ,
Nothing here is new !!!!
I have the rd 2000 and was expecting from Roland more then this bullshit ????
Sooooooo the same board.....😒 roland should be ashamed to put this on the market
Very good!!! But why not a simple digital piano with only these great piano and e piano sounds, light, 73 keys and portable? No wheels, no organs, some RealTime controls for sounds, eq and effects, Little display and this good keybed

@@ablesamkeybed of numax73 is not so good
@@andrealentullo6661 Personal preference of course. There are other options, CP73, Dexibell S4/S3 Pro, Crumar Seven and the Korg SV2-73.
@@ablesam of course, personal preferences. I dislike keybed of all instruments mounting fatar tp100. I feel It fatiguing, muddy and hard to play. So also crumar Seven and dexibell (that both sound very good). Cp73 is a good instruments but nothing that can make me sell my cp4. I Have to try sv2.
@@andrealentullo6661 all the best in search of the better.
Nord better. I can freely download new grand pianos, organs, pads and synths and install them in the keyboard so quickly and easy. With more sound quality than this sounds.
UNETHICAL!!! I have owned several Roland keys throughout my career. RD500. RD600, several of RD700 series, and I currently owe 2 RD 2000s; several Fantoms, a Jupiter X, several VKs and a VR. I specifically leave one RD2000 in south america so I dont have to carry it back and forth to the US. Before Christmas, I've paid for the German Concert Expansion, and I was very pleased with it! The problem, in my case, is that you cannot upgrade your RD 2000 that had already been upgraded with the German EXP unless you pay for another 200 dollars upgrade that includes the same German Piano EXP but not the Upright EXP. With that, Roland, abandons old faithfull customers like me, by devalueing their own products in an enethical way! Not cool!!!

Put a new price tag, make it 600 euros more expansive and ad two letters to the name. Pathetic.
let's be honest... since rd700nx Roland made just trash. I owned several of them (rd800,rd1000,rd2000- all of them after few weeks i sold). Mechanic since rd700nx sucks. im pianist and that old machine was nearest to the real piano play feel. I think was last one made in Japan.
Sounds so artificial. With each update the piano sounds are sounding too synthetic. Just another trick up their sleeve to fool customers. Same old sounds packaged with new name EX. Nowadays all of them are going back to 80's and 90's. But the keyboards in that era were fanstastic even their hardware, the features like aftertouch and keybed feel and etc etc. Korg even forgot to put AT on their Nautilus at first...hahaha
Your electric pianos are a joke. cmon roland you can do better! You cant get away with always rehashing rom sounds from the 90-2k's. Update synth structure to more than 4 layers.
more velocity layered expressivity and key off's - this is now the minimum standard.
This keyboard is way too expensive bunch of ripp offs
I just bought this keyboard. I was a loyal fan of a different keyboard producer...let's nickname them grok. They had some really great lead sounds on all of their synths.No this Roland.. I love the sounds, except for the lead sounds. I'm going to say Roland gave zero phucks about the lead sounds. All of them are ridiculously unusable. Please hire some synth guru to reprogram them to emulated GOOD famously recognizable patches. Then sell them. These factory lead sounds are all just miserable to use. For real.
Same standard muffled Roland piano sound.The guy is playing very nice, and the RD produces only this girlie playing sound. The rhodes sound are still very very good.....but all araound, there is no development anymore in Roland products, and this is now for many years. In short: YAWN
"muffled"
boost treble, you have no excuse
Super schlechte Demo!😢
What is happening to Roland?! Overpriced and underwhelming…
RD2000 has a high reputation among stage/master keyboards, I'm told.
After some very convincing reviews I bought the RD2000 EX to test it for myself and I'm returning as it doesn't come close to my Steinway model D
Are serious?! Why even compare the two? One is an acoustic instrument that makes sound through the vibration of strings struck by hammers, which resonate within its large, meticulously crafted soundboard, creating a rich and dynamic tone. The other is designed to be small, compact and convenient to transport while attempting to imitate the acoustic original with extra features appealing for gig-musicians and studio enthusiasts that need to control other devices.
@@titovalasques I wouldn't call RD2000 "compact", but you are right on all points.
@@Jason75913 I meant in comparison to a Model D.
