Dr. Mix, your fans can also not thank YOU enough for bringing us along on this tour to appreciate the creation of these beautiful quality instruments. Truly the high performance Italian sports cars of the keyboard world!
Studiologic, the creator of Fatar keyboards, is one of our Italian prides installed in every prestigious brand worldwide. They are the Ferraris of keyboards. Moreover, products like Numacompact 2x, NumaPiano, and Sledge are phenomenal objects. These design and production realities need to be defended with determination and promoted. A national pride 🇮🇹
I just found out they were the makers of the Sledge and it made me cry, since that's the synth I had my eye on. Ordering next week. A lack of Fatar keys is the ONLY instant no-sell for a keyboard synth for me.
FATAR is a bit like the Ferrari of keyboards in product and corporate ownership/management sense. Italian people dedicated to their craft, doing one thing and doing it well. Congratulazioni anche a FATAR e all'Italia!
One week after reiceving my Numa 2x, I mistakenly plugged it to the wrong AC adapter: 30 V (from my vacuum cleaner) instead of 12 V. Result: black smoke. Surprisingly, the keyboards was still functioning when plugged to USB-C, but I lost the ability of using the speaker and to connect it to the PC as a midi controller. I then opened the keyboards, detected a burned capacitor, swapped it, and the keyboard is now fully functional. I can say that the keyboard is very well done, and easy to disassemble and fix.
Great vid, thanks. Kudos to Fatar/Studiogic for keeping their manufacturing in Italy and not outsourcing to China. I have several keyboards with Fatar keybeds and a studiologic sl88 controller; excellent company.
I am an American of Italian descent and I am also glad that Fatar continues to manufacture in Italy. I am aware of the instrument manufacturing tradition of Castelfidardo and Recanati. As a young musician most of my music store purchases were from a very well known and loved music store in Philadelphia known as Cintioli's. I believe that the owner, Benito (Benny) Cintioli, (now sadly passed on) was originally from Castelfidardo. He used to sell his own Cintioli brand accordions in the store along with anything else a pro musician could want. Cintioli's was legendary to all Philly musicians for over half a century. All four of my grandparents (as well as my mother) emigrated to the USA from Italy in the 1920s and my father's family is from Ascoli Piceno which is in the same region (Marche) but about 20 miles south. I have owned a number of synthesizers of different makes that all had Fatar actions (it was hard to find one not named Yamaha that DIDN'T have a Fatar action.) I also owned four different QuikLok keyboard stands that were all manufactured in Recanati--unfortunately it seems they have moved most of their manufacturing to China--at least for their products that are sold in the USA. I am here today because I have been considering and SL73 and/or a Numa. This video was fascinating and very interesting. Thanks to Doctor Mix for making it available!
The last statement at the end hits the core! This is the European way to make high quality things in a factory. With passion and empathy for the workers while of course keeping in view the customers and what it’s all for - in this case passionated musicians and finally a heavenly thing: music
I'm a proud owner of SL73 midikeyboard. Being the cheapest in Studiologic family yet it delivers a very nice feel and velocity control. Perfect for your terabytes of sampled piano libraries.
As italian I am proud to see a winning combination of craftsmanship and industrial management. Linked with love of music. As an owner of an SL73 Studio, and Mixface, I am happy to confirm that everything works perfectly and gives an extremely good final product. I recently tested a NumaX Piano GT and I think that the key feeling is the best on the market. I hope they will keep on with this method, because it works perfectly.
This was in my opinion the best insight in a keybed and synth factory on your Channel - and its a european Brand, really great. In every step it could be seen the passion and professionality of a keybed manufacturing market leader. What I never thought is, that every keybed must be calibrated. I own a new Fantom 8 with wooden keys. I hope that the Roland keybed has not the same problems which had the wooden Fatar keybed in the past. But the Fatar CEO said, the Problem is already fixed.
Great video! As an engineer who worked in former times in production engineering I love to see which machines they use and how they automate testing and quality control. There is too little appreciation in this world for the great technology achievements in modern production engineering..
OMG, I've been a keyboardist since high school which was in 1980's, this was a great info video for me. I did not know how much work is put in making Synth keyboards, for this I thank you for this video and all the workers in this company. WOW
I was already a fan of Fatar keyboards. With this factory tour and seeing the passion of people, I'm even more fan than ever. Thank you Claudio, and thanks to the people at Fatar.
One of your best videos 👍👍👍 That factory and the Italian passion that goes into the products is amazing - probably just the opposite of a "clinical" Japanese product ( love them both though ) 😃
Hey Caludio tnx heaps for that video, as an industrial designer myself I'm always amazed by the sophistication of collective work, an the sheer boundless ingenuity of humans (and your music too). Is just unbelievable how much thought goes into anything is designed and produced. I think if people had more understanding of how much work requires to produce things they'll be more mindful and less wasteful with their own stuff. Love your work! keep it up!
This is the most valuable 'inside-industry' video I've ever watched. Thumbed!👍🏻 Not because it's posted by DrMix. But for it's the first one this type and really informative. Thx DrMIX~
Thanks Dr - another fantastic tour! I just purchased a SL88-Grand and received it yesterday. Really interesting to see the factory and process where it was made and shipped from. Gotta say -- the touch, feel and quality on my new SL Fatar keybed is exceptional. No wonder, watching this video.
Fatar keybeds are just gorgeous! When they are married to a Studiologic keyboard/controller they have so much 'feel'. You get so many nuances out of them. I really love how this company concentrates on the primary interface between a player and their instrument. I've played some truly awful keybeds that are spongy or springy (and I mean like flicking a ruler on a desk) in my time and it really makes a difference. Their organ keybeds are awesome too!
Thanks for the tour! Fatar is an amazing company. Coming from the classical piano playing, I love their keybeds, both piano and synth. I use SL88 Grand (TP/40WOOD action) and it's amazing! I once contacted Studiologic's support and it wasn't just premium, it was ROYAL. Gianni Giudici, one of the best European performers on the Jazz organ, answered to all my questions himself!
Gianni Giudici is a kind and fantastic person. About a year ago I bought a Numa X Piano 73, an excellent instrument that I use regularly on stage. I wrote to Gianni Giudici asking him if it was possible to include in an update firmware the possibility of adjusting the sensitivity of the keys with different values between the lower and upper part of the keyboard. He answered me very kindly and a few months later the firmware was released that allowed you to adjust the sensitivity of each individual key, exceptional! I am really satisfied with how this company works, maximum seriousness and attention to customers!
Great video! Whilst watching, I noticed my SL73 ease itself toward our TV screen. I'm sure I saw it shed a little tear as the factory tour progressed. 🎹
Wow! Having come from an electronics manufacturing and technical background this is an amazing state of the art process, and I really appreciate the expertise, attention to detail, and quality that goes into each instrument. Thanks for all the time and expense you put into sharing this tour with us 😺🤘
My thrift-store M-Audio USB keyboard convinced me more than anything that; the Fatar keys are the most important part of making a synth feel good to play. This was a great video bro.
A very good tour. Thank you. I appreciate that it was done in English. because subtitles make it hard to pay attention to the scene that’s being talked about. And I very much appreciate the workers trying to do their job in spite of the interruption of the tour… I hope some of them see this and know that their frustration was appreciated and hope their work quota was not damaged.
This is the most informative video on keyboard research that you will ever find. It's mind boggling to think about escapement measurement and key velocity. Simply breathtaking. Thank you Dr. Mix. This only adds to the education of musicians and their instruments.
Claudio ❤😊 absolutely brilliant, probably my favourite Dr mix video of all time! Taking us to witness the gold standard of keybeds in the making. So inspiring and reassuring, thanks so much, I will be moving up from the SL88 studio to the Numa piano, your great documentary has confirmed my choice. ❤👍
Thanks for the visit. So inspiring to hear Gianni, Marco, Simone, Marco and seeing the orchestra members who are making these musical instruments with passion. It convinced me to order a Numa X Piano GT. I should receive it by the end of the week. I can't wait to play with it. I am an alto saxophonist and composer. I will use this piano as my main keyboard and for recording sessions at home with special guests pianists. Grazie mile a tutti !!!
I enjoyed this video so much I was inspired to comment for the first time. What an incredible factory, I could feel the passion. I'm inspired, thank you.
So good to see you doing this. People need reminding how much thought, care, skill and dedication goes into products we all take for granted. I love these guys, always pursuing the best that can be.
Olá Doc! Gostaria de expressar minha pessoal gratidão por trazer todo este conteúdo fantástico, muito obrigado. Admito que possuo uma certa dificuldade em acompanhar seus vídeos por conta da diferença de nossos idiomas, mas, fico extremamente feliz com todo este conteúdo mágico da música e seus instrumentos. Seu canal foi para minha vida um divisor de águas onde pude aprender ainda mais. Sou apaixonado pela boa música e você a traz para perto de nós. Novamente, muito obrigado por seu trabalho. Um forte abraço do Brasil!❤
Un plauso a Claudio e ai ragazzi della FATAR per aver girato tutto il video in inglese invece di affidarsi a un comodo italiano con sottotitoli... sono sicuro che gli iscritti al canale abbiano apprezzato. Bellissimo tour come sempre!
I'm a bit disappointed that the whole tour was in English. I would have liked to hear them speak in Italian. If you are a proud manufacturer of Italian keybeds, be proud of your language too and promote it! I think it's not too much to ask of viewers to read subtitles, if you don't understand the language. (I do understand Italian, but even if this was a tour of, say, Yamaha's factory in Japan, I would prefer to hear the native language and would happily read the subtitles).
@spotlight-kyd Yeah, I agree. I understand why he did it, but I was hoping (and expecting) to hear everyone speaking Italian. Very interesting and fun, nevertheless. Btw "viscount" is pronounced VY-Count 😼
I still have my Studio 88 built-in Flight Case model controller. I love that it has multiple midi out jacks, 3 of them. So you can zone the controller to output different key ranges to different midi out ports, each with different velocity responses, midi note ranges and so on. Super flexible. A great controller and the keybed is really nice. A bit worn in after all these years, but still plays nice, especially controlling my Reface CP. A perfect duo.
Very fun and interesting video. It's really impressive that they're still able to manufacture keybeds and full keyboards in Italy still in 2023, even hand building them, and still remain competitive. I'd love to get a StudioLogic SL88 Studio at some point in a near future to replace my crappy M-Audio midi-keyboard. Perhaps next year ^^ I think I've probably hit the limit for what my boyfriend will accept of new gear acquisitions this year 🤣
Excellent, my favorite keyboards ever! Super interesting tour of this awesome company, a *key* part of many instruments we love. We need more videos like this!
This kind of stories are the most beautiful things to me… What a great company, thank you for the tour and thank you Fatar 🫡 Big salut 🫡 from France, ViNZ.
What a wonderful tour! Just another reason why filming gear is not so important as you can see a lot of stuff is recorded using a mobile phone. Brilliant. It is all about a creative individual! I admire their attention to design and detail. Amazing.
OMG! I never realised that my Fatar keyboard is one of the original keyboards. Not a synth, just a MIDI keyboard... Really heavy solid construction. Feels great playing it. Great vid as always! 👍🏻🇬🇧😎
The content is amazing. The enthusiasm infectious. I have a Fatar keyboard in one of my synths (Modal Cobalt 8X). But mainly wanted to comment on how humbling it is to have an Italian visit an Italian company in Italy and everyone speaks English for our pleasure. Truly humbling.
Thanks to Fatar and much Love goes to them. Brilliant video, thanks to doctor Mix Background: I get an old Grand piano from my Grandfather , which was build in Berlin. I played it every day for around 10 years (not as classic player just as music lover and learned compsing) in my 20qm Childs room Then I started work in music shop and get in touch (away from home and reference) with many big brands (Roland, Yamaha, Korg etc) in the 90ies, but all this was away of my learned feeling of keys. In the year of 2000 I found a masterkeyboard from Kurzweil (with Fatar Keyboard inside). It was for me very near to the feeling I learned. And I still use this great piece of Fatar now over 20years - and it still works. as a professional DJ I was, as composer I am , as keyboard teacher i was for Yamaha school (and never get warm with Yamaha keys, who also do a lot mechanical simulation of piano keys and I never get warm with) I am so thankful to Fatar and my next will be again a Fatar Piece Love snd Thanks to FATAR! ❤
Memories are made of this FATAR and also you BRO from even the olden days! Cheers! I used to deal with nearly all of those brands mentioned for Indonesian market. Love FATAR and becoming so accustomed to the touch character of their keys. God bless FATAR company and family. This is really amazing!
Such an impressive operation! So much thought and so much care going into development and manufacturing each element and assembly. Next time I'm in the market for a keyboard, Fatar must definitely be high on my list.
Loved this. I have always had a fascination with how FATAR engineered and produced excellent keybeds as I have disassembled/repaired a lot of them from synthesizers. Thanks for making this video.. LOVE AND RESPECT!
Such a great tour video Thank You! And I would like to thank first the ladies (and gentlemen) for their work who assemble and test the keys through which we "feel the music" directly. Big hugs to them too.
Thank you so much for such an amazing tour. I’m manufacturing engineer and love music, it was extremely interesting for me to watch this tour. Now I wanna work at this facility 😊. So cool 😎
Thankyou Doctor Mix for taking us with you! Intuitive cool instrument design on the outside, super tech complicated on the inside. Italy has always been at the forefront of plastics technology. It really shows here!
It's been great work. I wanted to see the production stages very much. Showing the production stages step by step to the company and you I applaud.The fact that the company does not hide its technology and is confident is something to be appreciated. Hoping for more of this kind of work, goodbye. Regards.👏👏👏

gives me a new appreciation of my own NUMA X, thanks Dr for the upload, it was wonderful to get to know the crew in Italy!
OMG, I've been a keyboardist since high school which was in 1980's, this was a great info video for me. I did not know how much work is put in making Synth keyboards, for this I thank you for this video and all the workers in this company. WOW
Amazing tour! The manufacturing technology they use, QR code inspection data, optical comparators… beautiful Italian floor workers… Great vid!
Mr Doctor Mix!
RESPECT!!!! You do/make HISTORICAL videos! Thank you!
I was already a fan of Fatar keyboards. With this factory tour and seeing the passion of people, I'm even more fan than ever. Thank you Claudio, and thanks to the people at Fatar.
Man, this is absolutely amazing! Thanks to Studiologic for making this great work.
One of your best videos 👍👍👍 That factory and the Italian passion that goes into the products is amazing - probably just the opposite of a "clinical" Japanese product ( love them both though ) 😃
My goodness.. Doctor Mix, You just keep rolling out the great videos!
This was super interesting!
Thanks for Sharing!
What a PHENOMENAL VIDEO!!! thank you so much Claudio!! you're a ROCK Star!
Claudio!!! Great video, my friend. This is bonkers, man!! It's amazing to see what goes into creating these instruments. Wow, have the times changed.
Hey Caludio tnx heaps for that video, as an industrial designer myself I'm always amazed by the sophistication of collective work, an the sheer boundless ingenuity of humans (and your music too).

Love your work! keep it up!
I love my studiologic sl88 grand! Thanks for the opportunity to look at their kitchen
Since I'm a proud owner of the Studiologic SL88, this was a fantastic insight into the making of the keyboards from Fatar.
This is the most valuable 'inside-industry' video I've ever watched. Thumbed!👍🏻 Not because it's posted by DrMix. But for it's the first one this type and really informative. Thx DrMIX~
Now I am completely convinced that the S88 keyboard is worth every penny. It is not easy to get access to a factory. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Dr - another fantastic tour! I just purchased a SL88-Grand and received it yesterday. Really interesting to see the factory and process where it was made and shipped from. Gotta say -- the touch, feel and quality on my new SL Fatar keybed is exceptional. No wonder, watching this video.
I have to say that the prices are not bad for keyboards which are made in the way as you saw in this incredible video 👍
Fatar keybeds are just gorgeous! When they are married to a Studiologic keyboard/controller they have so much 'feel'. You get so many nuances out of them. I really love how this company concentrates on the primary interface between a player and their instrument.

Bravo Claudio e bravi Fatar! Proud of you both 🇮🇹
Great show. We all appreciate FATAR keys for quality build and feeling.
Very cool tour! You gotta love companies like this that is filled with history, pride of quality and accomplishments! 😛👍
Brilliant to watch the processes involved and also the history and passion 👍👍👍
My thrift-store M-Audio USB keyboard convinced me more than anything that; the Fatar keys are the most important part of making a synth feel good to play. This was a great video bro.
Your happy mood is really contagious! Loving your videos!

Awesome video and props to Fatar for allowing that much access to their assembly workline. 👍
What timing my Numa GT is being delivered on Thursday and this tour of the factory is just icing on the cake. Thank you for a great video.
Thank you FATAR for allowing us to see inside your factory and thank you Doctor Mix for taking us along.
Great Doctor Mix. My next digital piano will be a STUDIOLOGIC NUMA X PIANO GT👍
This is the most informative video on keyboard research that you will ever find. It's mind boggling to think about escapement measurement and key velocity. Simply breathtaking. Thank you Dr. Mix. This only adds to the education of musicians and their instruments.
Wow! It’s really impressive the level of modernization they apply to the process and the factory itself. Thanks for showing us this pearl of industry!
Great to see how passionate they are about building the best keybed
Thanks doctor mix for this great content 🙌
This is why a guitarist like me is subscribed to this channel: I learn things here.
Great video (as usual). Thanks.
Yeah, this is education and entertainment! Great! 👍🏻🇬🇧😎
Claudio ❤😊 absolutely brilliant, probably my favourite Dr mix video of all time! Taking us to witness the gold standard of keybeds in the making.
So inspiring and reassuring, thanks so much, I will be moving up from the SL88 studio to the Numa piano, your great documentary has confirmed my choice. ❤👍
I'm touched. So much passion and love for the musical instruments. It warms my heart to see people like this! :) Thank you for the documentary. :)
brother! you have made the best keyboard related chanel in RUclips!! Congrats!
I love it! Thank you so much Claudio and Fatar! This was so cool to see. For my next keyboard, I will make sure it's a Fatar.
Claudio, great video, thank you, and thank you to FATAR for allowing you to tour the factory and for producing the best keyboards.
Thanks for the visit. So inspiring to hear Gianni, Marco, Simone, Marco and seeing the orchestra members who are making these musical instruments with passion.

Excellent video! As an owner of a Numa XGT I was impressed with the factory tour.
I bought an SL88 Studio Grand about a year ago and I absolutely love it.
So good to see you doing this. People need reminding how much thought, care, skill and dedication goes into products we all take for granted. I love these guys, always pursuing the best that can be.
Che bello vedere un'azienda italiana essere l'eccellenza in un campo! 👏 Nice tour! Grazie 😊
Thank you for providing such an organized and entertaining look into the artistry of the FATAR's Studiologic factory!

Questa azienda fa parte di quelle oramai poche realtá italiane di cui andar fieri! Anche a me ha fatto piacere che sia stato girato in inglese, bravi!
@spotlight-kyd
Yeah, I agree. I understand why he did it, but I was hoping (and expecting) to hear everyone speaking Italian.
Very interesting and fun, nevertheless.
Btw "viscount" is pronounced VY-Count 😼
@@spotlight-kydThe damages of globalization...
Really great video! This is so interesting. Thanks, Claudio for showing us.
Incredible, we've asked for it, 2 weeks later the video is up. Much love Claudio ❤
Thank you to all the folks at Fatar and Dr. Mix for sharing how my favorite keyboards are lovingly made!
I still have my Studio 88 built-in Flight Case model controller. I love that it has multiple midi out jacks, 3 of them. So you can zone the controller to output different key ranges to different midi out ports, each with different velocity responses, midi note ranges and so on. Super flexible. A great controller and the keybed is really nice. A bit worn in after all these years, but still plays nice, especially controlling my Reface CP. A perfect duo.
most keszulok egy ilyet osszehozni, egy regi vermona e-piano vazba. szeretem ha teljes a zavar :) a CP es az E-piano mar megvan...
Very fun and interesting video. It's really impressive that they're still able to manufacture keybeds and full keyboards in Italy still in 2023, even hand building them, and still remain competitive. I'd love to get a StudioLogic SL88 Studio at some point in a near future to replace my crappy M-Audio midi-keyboard. Perhaps next year ^^ I think I've probably hit the limit for what my boyfriend will accept of new gear acquisitions this year 🤣
Great to finally get a peek into the making of these legendary keyboards! Have been playing them for 25 years!
Genuinely fascinating. No wonder they make the best key beds!
Excellent, my favorite keyboards ever! Super interesting tour of this awesome company, a *key* part of many instruments we love. We need more videos like this!

as a professional DJ I was, as composer I am , as keyboard teacher i was for Yamaha school (and never get warm with Yamaha keys, who also do a lot mechanical simulation of piano keys and I never get warm with)
I am so thankful to Fatar and my next will be again a Fatar Piece
Love snd Thanks to FATAR! ❤
I am amazed at the quality and obvious love they use to make these fantastic keyboards! Great great video.....again!
Bellissimo tour. Ho una numa x 73 e ne sono felice, grazie ciao

Mamma mia! Fantastic video, kudos to the FATAR folks
Such a great video ❤ Always wanted to know more about Fatar - thank you 🙏
Memories are made of this FATAR and also you BRO from even the olden days! Cheers! I used to deal with nearly all of those brands mentioned for Indonesian market. Love FATAR and becoming so accustomed to the touch character of their keys. God bless FATAR company and family. This is really amazing!
Such an impressive operation! So much thought and so much care going into development and manufacturing each element and assembly. Next time I'm in the market for a keyboard, Fatar must definitely be high on my list.
Very nice manufacturing keyboards. Quality is inside. Fatar studiologic must go on!
I know now why my X705 Elka organ is still alive (42 years old).
Loved this. I have always had a fascination with how FATAR engineered and produced excellent keybeds as I have disassembled/repaired a lot of them from synthesizers. Thanks for making this video.. LOVE AND RESPECT!
Such a great tour video Thank You!
And I would like to thank first the ladies (and gentlemen) for their work who assemble and test the keys through which we "feel the music" directly. Big hugs to them too.
Thank you Mix for this very interesting visit ! 👍👏😁
Loved this video so much - great to see the people behind the amazing instruments. Thanks Dr Mix and the team from Fatar
Thank you so much for such an amazing tour. I’m manufacturing engineer and love music, it was extremely interesting for me to watch this tour. Now I wanna work at this facility 😊.
So cool 😎
This is amazing, always wanted to see inside this factory. What wonderful work they do!
😎😎😎,,, thank u for doing this. Love it, I always wondered how it was made, and its Italian even better, love the craftsmanship,
Incredible interesting! Amazing video! Thank you Claudio and Italian artists of FATAR - STUDIOLOGIC!
Thankyou Doctor Mix for taking us with you! Intuitive cool instrument design on the outside, super tech complicated on the inside. Italy has always been at the forefront of plastics technology. It really shows here!
It's been great work. I wanted to see the production stages very much. Showing the production stages step by step to the company and you I applaud.The fact that the company does not hide its technology and is confident is something to be appreciated. Hoping for more of this kind of work, goodbye. Regards.👏👏👏
Marco Ragni grande persona, degnissimo erede del mitico Lino. Great video Claudio!!! Respect to Fatar!
