blending between the pianos at the beginning is genius and exactly what i was hoping for. this is the way piano sounds should be compared.
True
Because of this youtube channel, it made it clear for me when I needed to choose which keyboard to get. Getting Casio CDP S100 is still my best recommendation, thank you guys for doing this kind of keyboard-comparison videos. It helps us a lot! Cheers!
Love your review! Made my decision to go for korg b2 after watching this video❤️
I still like these demos Jack, I have been considering a weighted keyboard for about a year and these demos do make a difference.
Crackin’ video, great editing too.
Jack you are a legend! Love all your lesson videos. One day soon I will buy a Nord Grand from Andertons and it'll all be down to you! Also next lesson ideas: 1.Jazz lesson (maybe 251 or nice go to chord shapes). 2. Stride/walking left hand patterns. 3. Your music heroes, and why you love them, lil example easy piece for each one of them. Anyway hope all you lot are doing well!
I found Your Channel today and i absolutelly love that memes between all that knowledge xD
I have the Casio and I freaking love it I’m so happy I bought it
Editing on these vids is unreal. Well done guys.
Thank you so so much for it ☺️ greeting from Thailand
Love the CASIO one!
I recently looked at the Roland Go piano 88. Would have preferred 88 keys, but found to be very light thin plastic keys, just like I had on my old Casio. I wanted to upgrade with better, more realistic keys. I found the Roland Go-61P to have a much better keyboard, more akin to a piano. They have a good weight & faux ivory feel, flat top black keys which fingers do not slide off. perhaps semi-weighted or strongly sprung with a felt trim. Such a shame they skimped on Go piano 88. I would recommend the Go-61P for the more realistic touch.
Thank you for the review! I’d love to buy from your links but need USA ones.
Still not sure
Love the simpler Roland Go and the sound but love also the Korg B2 richness. Surprised at the quality of the Casio.
Your playing is so good.
I have Casio cdp s 100 but I love the piano sound of Korg B2. 🥰
Casio guys. I didn't think that at first, but it's a top "price/value" equipment. Not just for the beggining!
Thanks a lot
Great job Jack! I really into the Casio to use it as a midi controller for my Nord Electro 6D.
BTB, is it possible to cancel that annoying preset change sound in the. Casio?
@@aefonta Yes, I think it is in the manual
Gréât video
Ma man, what you were playing there by the Korg with the E. Pianos!? Rocked my soul! 😭😭
Casio really good. I got one. Action has 4 levels if I remember correctly.
Nicely done Jack mon ami ! 👍🏽
I´m not out to buy anything, I just like to listen to your awsom playing.
I do have a question btw, how do I best ad an arp on a Nord stage 2 with out hooking up a computer?
i like yamaha/roland piano EQ over the brighter korg/casio eq's. the go piano stood out immediately in that respect.
i have noticed this across most of the models for a while now. BUT korg cuts through a mix really well.
fwiw, i have a yamaha MX88 for piano and a korg KromeEX+X50 for most everything else, except a JV-2080 for those great roland sounds, so i have a ton of pianos to play with.

Hi,
How do you compare the Keybed and feel with M-Audio MK3 vs Roland Go:Piano 88 ?
Hola a todos, desde Chile
dentro de la categoría de pianos eléctricos, la verdad es que los tres suenan muy bien, pero yo me quedo con el Korg B2, me gusta mas la llenura del sonido de piano sin desmerecer a las otras dos marcas, aunque me sorprendió gratamente el Casio, suena muy bien, personalmente me gusta mas el Korg.
Bendiciones y gracias por el video explicativo
The metronome animation 😆
Go with the Casio... If you want a studio level sound then just pair it with omnisphere and you are done. The Casio is built like a semi premium product in a low budget entry range of the market imo.
Tbh I hate how the casio sounds
@@radha7335 Me too. I think the Casio sounds awful. I'm surprised that people are saying that they like it.
@@JustinDAMusic I don't care for the sounds. I'm sure most people will use vsts
Casio's EPs are really nice.
Мне хватило первых 40 секунд просмотра, чтобы определиться. И это однозначно Roland. 100%
Точно! Все остальные звучат после него как игрушки 😅
I live in the USA. Is there an easy bicycle route to England from here?
The Yamaha PSR-E273 is absolutely amazing and less than $150!
I got the Casio when it first came out. I’ve been very happy with it.
How do you like the sustain?
How is the sustain?
Amazing what ~$300,- pianos can do today. Btw., I think the EQing on the CASIO was 'sligtly' boomy? The ROLAND have this 'ZING' when hit hard which almost sounds as the hammers are metal mallets :P A bit of comp will be good there :) The A.Piano on the KORG is a bit synthetic to my taste, but some of the E.Pianos are great :)
You said the Roland only has 4 sounds, but actually you can click up/down to get 10 piano, 7 e-piano, 7 organ and 16 miscellaneous tones.
Roland Go is touch sensitive. Do the Roland Go Strings sustain with a sustain pedal? Because they don't on Yamaha DGX-670. Nice demonstration and comparison. While I complain about the Yamaha DGX, one really good thing about it is that when you combine it with Pianoteq Pro, there is no latency and the resulting piano tone when the two are played simultaneously together is totally awesome. I wish you would test all these keyboards in conjunction with Pianoteq to assess how good they are as controllers along with how much latency there either is or isn't.
Yes it does sustain the strings. But the strings slowly decay instead of being held.
Hey, the sound out of my roland go piano 61 is distorted all of the sudden. the headphone output also doesnt work. anny idea what the problem could be? i already tried updating.
I literally only watch these video to learn new licks from Jack 👍
Can I get the DX7 or DX7 Legend sound from this like the song Babe by Styx?
2:42 what song was that and where do I get the notes
i just bought the korg B2 today. I'll be back in a few months
Looking into this right now and saw your comment, how is it?
@@Bleudog sold it already!!😆
@@rangorezz6583 Did you buy anything instead?
does the Roland Go 88 that you played here do the same sound as the 61 Go piano when you played it in another shoot out video do do wah wah
The roland go sounds so beautiful in my opinion
How do you input the sustain pedal in Korg B2? Does it go in with a 3.5mm jack? I was wondering. Thanks for the review
There is a special input at the bottom, but no 3.5mm for substain, thats sad
From a few reviews, they commented that the sound decay is quite short on the Casio. What do you think of this?
The Roland sounds amazing as well as the Korg! Still I ordered the Casio, cause I'm short on money and I got it for less for it has some scratches and I really wanted to have weighted keys. Your reviews are very helpfull
I'm considering the Casio or Yamaha Clavinova… can you use the three pedal setup for the casio?
@@Brandon-a-writer No you can't, as far as I know. It only suports sustain paddle. I think it is still fine for a beginner but on the long run, the Roland FP-10 is the far better choice as well as the Yamaha P-45. Only I cannot afford it so I will have to go with the Casio in the mean time.
@@H-DA i'm an intermediate-advanced player, just pretty broke for the most part. i would prefer one with the capacity for 3 pedals. i played a clavinova at a sam ash not too long ago, and though i can't remember if it had 3 pedals, it sounded amazing.
@@Brandon-a-writer well, there are many great pianos out there. Clavinovas are sold for 1.600,- up to 16.000,- as far as I have seen, I'm sure you cannot compare them to a 350,- Casio but if you are willing to spent it, go for it. Do you know what type of Clavinova it was?
In case you want something cheaper, the yamaha p-45 that I mentioned supports 3 pedals als well and cost about 420,- and I think the sound is way better than the Casio but surely not as good as a Clavinova I think.
(In €)
@@H-DA It was an upright cabinet Clavinova that looked a lot like a real piano, so I'm pretty sure it had.3 pedals. The next piano I get is definitely going to be between 700-$1500. I'm not sure which Clavinova it was exactly, but it sounded wonderful. Though I have considered the Roland p10 as well. The Yamaha p45 is one I have to look at … my current piano is a 76 key Yamaha ypg-235. I think I paid around $250 for it.
I was considering getting a midi controller because of how nice some of my VST programs are (Synthogy ivory is really nice and has great tones), but if I could get a piano that sounds as good as the higher model Privia sx-3000 or a Clavinova I will probably try to get one of those. Thanks so much for taking the time to answer my quesions!
Surely that Casio should be compared against the FP-10 or 30, the Go range is obviously going to be limited to save weight so comparing the Casio and acknowledging the weighted keys and better battery performance doesn’t seem fair. It’s not apples for apples as they say. Oh and no mention of the weight but I’m sure it’s not 7kg
Ok 👍🏻
Does the Casio really make always that F# sound when you change the sounds? Why? It's very annoying. Can it be turned off?
Yamaha??
need a b2n (light keys) review with the 255€ current price at thomann
I just received my new CDP-S100. I am a first-time digital piano user. The sound is really good but I realized that every single key I hit, it also has a loud key thump sound to the point that it is distracting. Is this normal?
Yes, it is normal. The CDP S-100 is actually quieter than other digital pianos I've tried.
The other feature of the Korg, not mentioned, is that the USB socket is for audio as well as MIDI, so you can record the sound of the piano into your computer without needing to use an audio interface - just select the Korg as the audio input in your DAW. I think that’s a big advantage over the others which only carry MIDI data on the USB.
Wow, this is a great option to record audio via usb, any other pianos with usb have this? Thnx for info.
@@Shoxart I don’t think any of the other pianos at a comparable price point do. It was what made me choose the Korg for my daughter - who wanted something to record her songs into Cubase - instead of a Yamaha, which is what I use myself.
Korg b2 for first timer who want to keep the piano for 3 years or more.. roland if you want good sound and perform and choose casio if you just want to fool around.. trust me what good about casio just the battery and the key feel, because idk why i hate the cdp s100 action...
There 4 different actions in it. Bet you will like one.
@@sarty23 sir, i already tried in music store the cdp100, in my opinion the roland digital piano do the job better, well i know its on budget but why not pick better choice when the price range not far?
Could you guys do a Yamaha P45 vs Roland fp10??
Korg îs better
which model is better for a beginner: Roland Go, YAMAHA PSR-E463, Korg EK-50, Kurzweil KP90L? Is it important for the beginner to have keys backlight?
Is it possible to download different instruments to play on the casio?
Whats the into song you were playing on all 3 ? Does anyone know? I am trying to learn it!
I too wanna know
Hi Hi👋 It was a “Jam” I must have been messing round with that week. Thanks for watching and for asking 🙏🏻
People which you recommend Korg b2 or Yamaha p 45
Korg B2
The casio piano samples sound really short, almost just an attack with barely any tail.
Can you do fp10 vs the cdps100
Roland fp 10 is light years better than casio cdp s100. I have both at home. The feel when playing is indescribably better with Roland, it has a nice sound and very quiet keys. The Casio has a terrific sound and very loud keys, although they are pleasant to the touch.
@@bojanvrscaj3529 how about the form factor
Which do you prefer and who has the louder bass?
roland piano did sound the best by a fair shot, the casio seemed to have much fewer samples in the piano and the korg has this weird midrange thing, i personally don't like it but you could EQ it out pretty easy to see what their samples really sound like without a hump. i think in terms of usability if you wanted a rhodes type sound as well as a piano, probably go with the korg or casio, the roland simply doesn't have that sort of sound loaded in. but if piano is all you want then it's a good choice.
Is it just me that when I hear him play soft on the casio, it almost sounds like they just turn the volume knob down. It doesn’t sound like the sound of piano when you press the keys softly.
It sounds quieter but the loud note and quiet notes sounds the same except one is just quieter.
It’s hard to explain…lol hope that makes sense
What is the name of the piece that you were plying at the end of the video?
I wanna know that too
Me 3
Agree with you about the Roland piano sound - though the other three sounds weren't particularly great. I love your playing style - somehow reminiscent of Bruce Hornsby or one of the Wyndham Hill pianists from the 90s. Great stuff!
Wyndham Hill..... blimey there's a blast from the past.
roland is best here. check out the go:keys also
2:51 expected the wrong organ hahah
I hate that the B2 doesn't have a pitch wheel, and the proprietary pedal jack input. But it's the clear winner for me, even over the Casio CDP-S350, simply because of it's sound. Especially its Rhodes sound. The CDP-S350 can do sooooo much more though for someone that likes fun features so... it all depends on your needs
@ikigai47
Hi! Does the Casio really make always that F# sound when you change the sounds? Why? It's very annoying. Can it be turned off?
@@zedmind5246 Hello. Casio support can answer better than I could. I chose the Korg B2 over the Casio so it's been a while since I played the Casio
Just spend the extra money and get the Roland FP10. Far superior action.
Intro song name please?
Hey Vinayak 👋 It was a little Jam I came up with. Thanks for watching an asking mate X
@@jackduxbury1632 That was impressive. It would be great if you make a video on that showing the upper cam so I can play it too 😅❤️
I found a guy that is selling the B2 with stand, 3 pedal unit and stool for $500
Kawai es110 is the best
If you have to play for over an hour or so or rock and roll.weighted keys tire yr hands and slow you down.
@@TheMythMaiden yes but there are quiet soft passages that gives rest to the hands.Rock n Roll is relentless high tempo especially in the left hand and are professionals that don,t manual labour all day.
I hate like the Roland GO sounds, it feel like a karaoké in a Chinese restaurant immediately
Unweighted keys should be categorised as keyboard not piano 今尾
better save up for a few months longer and get the next better Korg D1 with the keybed from their 1500 quid models. you won't regret it and can thank me later.
That's also a very good option! 🤘
@@AndertonsKeyboardDept with only ONE real downside for beginners: it has no speakers. but line outs. (on the other side: GOOD speakers are a rare thing in pianos, anyways.)
Whilst I totally agree, £1500 is a lot of money to lash out by someone who may or may not pursue learning to play. I would think the early fail rate is probably quite high.
@@andertonsfan3144 the D1 is like 500-600£
@@emanuelsv ah - my bad!
Ill have to email all the manufacturers again because he never bothers to tell me where each keyboard's manufactured.
Korg is better...the only minus is Apple apps support but not Android
Overall video is very good. Please get rid of the stupid crazy transitions though. You are good enough where you don't need that annoying crap. Thanks for the very useful info.
Why are beginners always supposed to play on crap?
