My first "field trip" video! What did you like about this video? What did you want to see more of?
I liked the enthousiasm in this video lol😂 Lionel finally has decided to go outside.. But honestly I think public piano performances would be a great addition to this channel
E
Yesss love how your content is expanding!
Great Video, would like to know of you would recommend the Yamaha Clavinova series of digital pianos.
These kinds vids are great I really hope to see more of these!!
I recommend kawai es920 above any of those mentioned providing you have funds for one. Built in speakers are better than they should be and action is very fast/virtuosic. You should aim to get a dp with triple sensors also, most are now. The es920 has counterweights, although it's still a folded action, unlike mp11se, which has the nicest feeling action, but actually probably not as fast aa es920 which is cheaper and has built in speakers and weighs half as much.
I just got my Kawai ES920 hahaha and I love it! As a fellow pianist I appreciate you chiming in here ;)
@@WeAreOnePiano that's great, i love the fact it's pretty light at 17kg but still has pretty high spec overall. Bought mine the other month, I wonder if you still have your mp11se as well... I think you have a nice grand too, which are obviously in a different league lol. Those music shops are like candy stores to us musicians hahaha.
YES
@@markfowlermusic yep! I’m getting my Mp11se modified and it should take a few months. So I got the es920.
@@WeAreOnePiano I have Korg lp 380 it is worth it! the heys and all its worth it.
I was so pleasantly surprised when you mentioned Seong-Jin Cho. What a pianist... Literally my favourite young pianist by far
I guess we'll never know how to install LEDs into a digital piano.
50k likes...seems like a journey lol
Or, we already know lol....it's not that hard.
@@killer408cid Then please guide us noobs :D
Let's view this everyday lol
Well we just need some ppl to see it and moreover other tutorials are there on yt.
Great to see that you are making different types of videos and enjoying yourselves
It is so fun to watch the most enthusiastic pianist Lionel to recommend the best Price-Quality digital piano to audiences! Valuable information and good arrangement of the video! Enjoy to watch!
He look so incredibly happy in this video and I honestly understand, he's in a music store. A music store is literally the greatest thing ever invented.
Dude your energy is off the hook! I love it! Keep it Up Thank You!
I'm planning to buy one with all the keys, so its nice to hear from a real pro pianist for some advice!
Yeah, digital pianos have many advantages when it comes to comfort. But i prefer the acoustic piano any day of the week. Just the feeling of pressing the key and starting the mechanics is an awesome feeling 😍
You can feel the vibration in the keys and in the whole room too, which is also a great feeling that you can't get with a digital piano
money
I'll take a good digital piano over a bad (badly maintained) acoustic any day of the week.
I would love to have an acoustic piano, but I have no room for one, and there are no piano tuners within 70 miles of me. I'm grateful that digital pianos are a viable option.
@@RetroPlus actually any volume turned up loud enough will induce vibrations. different vibrations yes, but vibrations nevertheless.
I just bought Yamaha P-125 last week (it was still $700) and i am super happy you recommend it as well. I honestly just went to the store and went through all the digital piano they have available in store. I instantly loved it compared to the other ones. You can tell the difference for real
im currently getting so frustrated bc i dont seem to be improving as a pianist and watching your upbeat and fun contet makes me happy to call myself a pianist again. thank you for spreading your great vibes.
Right on time!! I literally was planning to buy one just a few days ago!!
Great video, I love the energy you bring to the video.
This video was actually super entertaining to watch, and it felt very high quality, especially with the editing
This is extremely helpful purchasing advice, thank you.
Excellent info! I'm an intermediate level player, and learned gr8 info! Thank you!
I bought myself a Master Keyboard on ebay for 60$ as a first "piano" to check if, after playing the guitar, this instrument was something for me (and yeah, this was a quick "well, why not" decision). I didn't want to waste 1000$ for an instrument i wasn't interested anymore weeks later. There's nothing wrong with buying cheap first, if you know the downsides. Either buy something more expensive real soon, or at least not having wasted that much money on an instrument which only catches dust. It's also hard to know whats important for yourself, if you're an absolute beginner. This was a way to dip in my toes, and some months later, decide what's important for me. I got a used Roland after that and now i'm playing a Casio PX-S1000 for 2 years, which i love.
I got my own PX-S1000 earlier this year and I love it. Not the most sophisticated piano, but a good one nonetheless. 😊🎹
Same here, trying piano after guitar. Just got 100 bucks piano to see if I like it and am willing to put the effort. Good enough and when I decide to buy something fancier I'll have no regrets to get rid of this one.
@@PavelUrubcik I'm basically the opposite - I know piano but am going to learn guitar at some point. Hopefully this will be the year 😁
Bro can you gift me that 60$ piano 🎹
I have a fully weighted 88 key Korg and it's not the most crazy advanced piano but I really like it. Sounds really nice and haven't had any issues yet. I've been pretty hard on it as well.
Which one? I have the Korg LP-350. Absolutely love it. Great sound, great feel and plenty of sound and instrument options.
My dad had an oasis and it sounds great but so does the nord stage 2 and don't overlook a yamaha
Nearly at 1 Million subscribers! Keep going Lionel
I bought a 49 key keyboard that had everything you said to stay away from and I think it’s perfectly fine for my needs. I don’t want to perform for anyone or even study I just wanted something to play around on. It was only 55 dollars from guitar center, worth every penny. Glad I didn’t spend 500 dollars on a massive one.
You can buy one with 61 keys, its the piano I have. It works well too, though it feels a bit cheap, it is a little more expensive than your piano
I have a Akai LPK25 with 25 keys and I don't regret buying it. If I want to play piano and I will go to a place with a piano. (Still, I'd like to have something with like 61 keys or something to acutally play with 2 hands ;) )
I've recently purchased a 61 key keyboard to see if I stick with playing it. Took piano lessons in my youth, but didn't stick with them which I do now regret. If I do stick at the keyboard then I'll splash out on an 88 key digital piano, but even then only costing up to about £1000.
I also have a 49 key midi controller and it's great for music production with DAWs when I'm on the go. But it'll never replace an 88-key keyboard for me. Even 61 is too small and frustrating when I can't reach the octaves without using the octave switching button.
We need more vlog like this
Like the new video concept, Also great for people interested in getting into playing piano's/keyboards themselves.
Keep up the good work Lionel.
❤️ thanks yvez!
Love your videos and I need all the info of this video. Thanks!!!
Oh man ... your videos got me into learn piano. This Video comes right on Spot 😂👍
Not sure if the guitar center you were at had the FP30x but I would recommend that one! I've been playing for just under 2 years now. (not as long as you of course!) but I love it. $750 brand new, weighted and graded, velocity-sensitive. Built-in metronome and speakers. Plus a feature most seem to lack is a 3.5mm jack and this one has it on the FRONT of the keyboard. Yes, this seems small but it's such a convenient design feature that goes overlooked even by more expensive boards. I live in an apartment so having easy headphone access is crucial.
BROOOO I LOVED THIS VIDEO!!! Can you do a video on what brands and what to look for when buying a actual piano? Like an upright or grand piano! That would be so cool.
Yes! when I visit a piano store I'll be sure to do something like this ;)
Great info btw. Love your channel💓
Have just charged with positive energy for all the day! Thanks!
Lol, 3 grands are such an underestimate for how far you can go with digital piano
I know a nord lover got a stage 3 just for learning piano (but also for the synth and gig functionality)
I'm not a musician, but I have thought about taking it up as a hobby and piano is actually my instrument of choice for that. So, I found this video quite informative and I now know what to look for. Unfortunately, my budget in space as well as money won't let me do it quite yet. Maybe some day, but if I'm going to do it at all I'm gonna do it right and get lessons as well as my own instrument.
The edits in this video are so freaking professional! Had my attention the whole time
Finally iv been waiting for this.
"Look at this, if you see a keyboard that has these kinds of keys, stay away. Unless you're like three years old." - Lionel says as he plays coincidentally on THE SAME DIGITAL KEYBOARD THAT I HAVE
I love this Guy! Super fun, positive and cool. Feels like hanging out with a friend not a video. Also great editing.
This was really interesting, thank you so much!:-)))
Great video Lionel! I have been playing piano for 12 years in an acoustic yamaha, and recently got the Roland FP-30 so I can practice during the nights without disturbing anyone. I cannot say it's like an acoustic, but definitely fulfills its purpose. I got it with the "table" base and the three pedals, which as an amateur I value very much.
Funnily enough, the last three options for digital pianos were all the ones I was considering to buy. I actually just bought a Kawai ES920 recently. I was tempted between the Yamaha P515 and the Kawai ES920, but I chose Kawai because I love the sound of Kawai pianos. I didn’t hear about Kawai until a few years ago, but when I heard a Kawai K Series upright piano online when I was looking at upright pianos then (I forgot why), I _immediately_ fell in love with its sound and will always completely remember it. I _am_ classically trained, which is probably why I love its sound. I was thinking about the Kawai MP11SE, but I just wanted a really good quality digital piano that I can play around with instead of a digital piano with extra options that I will most likely not use. Even though it may have a better keyboard action, I decided not to pay more money than I really needed for a good digital piano, so I chose a Kawai ES920.
I have both and I’d say while the MP11SE is more realistic, the action of the 920 is definitely better than most keyboards and it is lighter which gives you more control! Congrats on your awesome new keyboard!
@@WeAreOnePiano Thank you! I opened the box two days ago and played on it for hours (I slept really good after that). I read the manual for a few several minutes before I turned on the piano. Whenever I do that, a part of me feels annoyed because I just want to enjoy playing around with a new toy and be happy, but I always read the manual first for any safety warnings and precautions just in case, like how I read the Nintendo Switch manual, and it said for people with pacemakers to not be within nine inches to it because it may not work properly. I would _not_ have expected that, although it would make sense in a way. I sometimes read the legal stuff, like the terms of service and privacy policies of things that I use, but I usually skim over them for anything that would apply to me.
One time, I read the Code of Conduct for my high school, for the reason having enough time to and to bore myself with legal stuff, I saw weapons that were banned on campus included “Chinese stars.” I thought that it meant you couldn’t use Chinese celebrities as weapons, like you would just bring Jackie Chan to fight people in school. Then I realized that it probably meant shurikens, even though it has a Japanese origin but uses Chinese characters as kanji. It also said that firearms were illegal on campus (of course). I thought hypothetically what could be used as a lethal weapon similar to a projectile-firing weapon but not be classified as a firearm, and then, the random thought that electromagnetism is the second strongest fundamental force and has an attractive and repulsive force came into my mind. I thought I had a brilliant idea of an electromagnetic gun, but the first US patent of it was in 1919, and there is already a large amount of research on it as a practical military weapon. I had no idea they had existed before (I had only seen the word once while playing Halo but didn’t bother looking up what it was), and I thought of it when I was around fifteen years old. To be honest, I kind of feel relieved that I wouldn’t have to do that much research because I didn’t invent it, but it would’ve felt cool if I had thought of an amazing life-changing idea.

I WAS WAITING FOR ONE OF THESE VIDEODS
I wish this video was around a few years ago. Much wisdom here. I learned the hard way about Williams pianos and the X-Frame stands. Very true to avoid both.
I decided to go with P125 the years ago because I like how it sounded and it felt. I agree with everything you said here. P45 is okay but I can hear the sound quality is not as good as P125. The Roland FP30 is fine but I'm not a fan of their piano timbre but the action is excellent.
I've also tried the Casio CDP shown here and yes it feels and sounds cheap but hey you get what you pay for. Their Privia I've tried is actually nice as well.
I enjoyed this video. Subscribed!
V3xman The P-125 has a much better set. Of features than the P-45. The main thing they share is the GHS action. But connectivity, polyphony, tone generator and speakers are all better on the P-125. For those who can't afford a P-125, consider the P-121, which only has 73 keys, but is still a lot better than the P-45, though not quite as cheap. 73 keys can be an advantage too.
I went with roland juno ds88, it has hell a lot of sounds, microphone output, amazing piano feeling and sound. Been playing since a year
been looking to get something to get into piano, but also want something with midi out so i can use it as a synth with external equipment. thanks for the video! definitely helps me narrow my choices down and assured me some things i thought were actually true (especially about the Williams keebs)
Love your energy
I disagree on a few points. I’ve owned a fair amount of keyboards and pianos so here’s my takes.
1 don’t buy Williams, it’s guitar centers brand and it’s cheaply made and sounds cheap. I owned one and after about a year things began to break and glitch. There’s much better options for the same or a better price.
2 Yamaha, kawaii, Korg, Roland, and Casio are all great entry level piano brands and the higher end models are what I call “forever pianos” meaning they’ll last you pretty much forever and anyone of any skill level can enjoy it. Korg actually makes very good pianos however you have to buy their higher end products for that. As for my personal choice, I recommend the Casio Privia pxs1000. I am a little biased as this is my personal keyboard but it’s touchscreen, comes with an app, great speakers, it can record, multiple instruments and reverb functions and on top of that it’s incredibly small, slim, and light. It’s tough as all hell too. But other recommendations for Yamaha he made in the video will do just fine as well. Rolands electric grand pianos and electric upright pianos are some of the best instruments I’ve ever played. If you want a keyboard can do a million things and last forever go with them, however it’s very pricey.
3 if you are able get an acoustic piano, it makes a massive difference; but keep in mind it costs a lot more than a keyboard or electric alternative. Craigslist’s and Facebook marketplace are great places to look. Also Costco is great, they occasionally sell Yamaha pianos way cheaper than piano stores. I’m talking like 5000 bucks cheaper. BIG TIP (gigity) if you’re gonna check out a piano from Craigslist or Facebook marketplace hire a piano technician or appraiser to come with you, it may cost around 100 dollars but trust me it’s all worth it. I got majorly screwed on a piano which had a fatal error which I didn’t notice while I was playing it and checking it out myself. The error costs 800 dollars to fix, all because I didn’t wanna spent $100 on a piano appraiser. Happy shopping yall.
"I don't know how much this goes for, but its the best in its price range" :D
I feel like I need to throw out there that I still have one of the 1st (certainly an early) midi "real feeling" Rolands. Its been hammered by every kid in the family and is still going strong!
Nice video! As an experienced player, who does have to play a lot of organ/brass/string parts when performing, I don’t always get a keyboard with real piano action. However, you describe everything so clearly that it makes me want to get a keyboard just for piano parts, and designate all other playing to a midi controller. Well done…
I recently got the p-45 after having a keyboard from Yamaha with cheap plastic keys and less than 88 keys. Mot that you need a great piano to enjoy it, but I definitely haven't ever been this enthralled in piano.
Man, I feel very vindicated in the research I did before buying my P125 a couple years ago hehe :)
Me too haha
Hey MusicalBasics
Thank you for making this vid
It really helped
And u inspired me to try and learn really challenging pieces (I am not that good tho)
I'm very offended, I dont like the comment about the violin and piano 😕 musicians should accept every instrument (except the viola).
The whole video was a bit edgy when it comes to that xD
its a joke just like you guys hating viola you think viola players like that?
I almost became a viola player. Luckily I decided on saxophone before that tragedy ever started.
No piano is just better
Jk
Eheh I have the Yamaha P-515, after 1 year of the P-45. Awesome upgrade indeed!
I'd love a video where you go into a music store and just play insame piano pieces while filming the reactions of all visitors and the staff !!
great content as always
Lol I got rid of my up right piano and going to get an electric piano, perfect timing!
In all honesty Nord's are expensive but we use them a lot in churches. They're top quality when it comes to playing for church services and usually have a wider range to make things sound better.
Love you man 👍
Lionel, you have the best, most honest videos about music I know of. Just the couple I have seen, I have received more understanding about what music education is all about, more so than studying anyone else. Yu = one of the best pianists and one of the top musicians, I would gladly pay to see perform. What about the Genos? I am saving up for that one.
I have an acoustic Kawai and I've had it for 15 years. I absolutely love it. It sounds really really nice even if it's not been tuned in forever. I'm so surprised with how long it can last without being tuned, and this is coming from a person with perfect pitch. 🤩 Yamaha keyboards do sound very very nice as there's quite a few of them where I'm currently working. The keys feel great too. I've played a Yamaha digital piano that's ACTUALLY the size of an acoustic piano and the keys are weighted JUST LIKE one. It was very fascinating.
I'm Korean so I love the representation in this video!
I recommend a Roland RD2000 or a Yamaha CP88, they’re stage ready, their actions are very superb
Adding my upvote to the 50K goal.
Keep up the good work
I have the P45 and I love it, for anyone looking to pick one up though buy a separate pedal to go along with it, the one that comes in box with it is pretty crap, just a little weightless piece of molded plastic on a spring. I believe the 125 has the same pedal with it as well. If I were buying one now I'd probably go with the 125, back when I got mine though the price difference was a lot more, 125 is cheap now.
I'm saving up for a 125. Pretty excited. Is the pedal really bad though? How much would a good pedal cost?
@@AlphaMohid from all the pictures I've seen it looks like the 125 has the exact same pedal my 45 came with, it's usable, but it's just a cheap little plastic thing, very short, only about 2.5 inches long and it only presses down less than 1/4 inch so it's pretty easy to get your foot on it wrong and it not press down, not helped by the fact that it's so light it slides on any hard surface easily. Especially with my big feet I have trouble with the little thing. You can get a really good one for $30, easily so it's not really breaking the bank getting a better one.
@@1Raptor85 Thanks for letting me know mate. I'll definitely look into a better pedal when I buy the 125. Appreciate it!👋
I have the Roland rd 2000 and it has some of the best action I have ever felt on a digital keyboard, at least for my preference it’s perfect. Wooden keys and all. The sound is nothing to write home about but I used piano teq 7 instead because quite a few of those samples are amazingly done. And I got the LEDS all set up on it too, not a budget set up for a beginner but for someone who’s been playing a long time like myself it is an amazing setup!
I've played the rd2000, it's a decent action, but it's such a powerful keyboard and doesn't have onboard speakers - overkill for most pianists
I currently have a casio privia px 870, and it has a really nice feel to it and plays pretty nicely (though I wouldn't compare it to an acoustic). Its just nice to have something that at least feels nice to play while being able to use headphones and not disturb my family.
Great video. I bought a Yamaha For my wife and daughter a few years ago and I am glad that you tell me I made the right choice :-)
Dude - I love your videos. I've been watching them for many years now. Nice introduction to the world of pianos. Your talent is out of this world. I can barely play twinkle starts with one hand on my own, but I've always wanted to learn the piano. Do you think a 42 year old guy is too old to learn the piano at a decent level? (never your level of course)
Nope, my level is definitely reachable ;) but you gotta find a really good teacher and practice your ass off. If you are in a major city in the united states or Europe, you should have no problems finding someone!
I want to say that what this guy is saying is his own opinion and he has a certain style and sound he's looking for. The keyboards that he bad named in this video are actually very good and i own some of them. You have to just try it out for yourself before you take someone's opion
I bought the recommended Yamaha P125 and although I have a Steinway B grand and a Kurzweil electronic with excellent Samson external speakers and subwoofer the P125 is wonderful as recommended by Lionel. The video helped tremendously.
Good luck for your concert
As a fellow pianist I really want to know how to install LEDs so I can play at 3am! Hahaha 🤣😂 You have also almost 1M subs come on you can do this 💪
I agree to the fact of Yamaha p125 is Good.
But I saw in the online that some people recommend Roland fp30 x over p125.
So which one is better :3
Fun and interesting, thank you!
Currently got a 2006/2007 Yamaha 61 key digital piano that im borrowing from a friend. So far got some money saved up for the Yamaha DGX-670! It’ll be an exciting buy!!
What do you think about Yamaha's DGX 670
I love love love my Yamaha P-125 weighted 88 key digital piano (I got the furniture bundle). I even connect it to my iPad and play/compose on garage band. It’s amazing.
I like that you smile all the time 💛
I recently bought the Roland FP-30x. In my opinion it’s a really great piano at that pricerange. I have no complains, 100% would recomend it!
So did I, and I totally agree!
Same here, I much prefer the action on it to the Yamaha’s at the same price.
I recommend the Yamaha P515. It is a bit expensive but it's worth all the money in my opinion since the sound is really gorgeous and it has wooden keys for a great feeling
I recently purchased the P515 and I love it so much!

Ow okay yeah it's cool
(Him explaining)
The sales guy:who dafuq r u coming in and judging our pianos
Nah lol he likes me, I sold him 3 keyboards a few months ago for a great price
I have a Yamaha p155 and the feeling of the keys is SO GOOD. I grew up playing on real pianos and this Yamaha feels just like the pianos we had at home :) I'm planning to play on it as long as I can!
I have the kawai es920 and I will say at first I didn't love the way it felt entirely; it felt like I couldn't get enough oomph out of playing it. But I just recently paired it with a VSL VST and OH MY GOODNESS it is amazing!
Actually, I don't know if you have already addressed this question about digital pianos (or perhaps even acoustic pianos). It seems that when you press on the keys, the key thumps are transmitted through the stand to the floor, and are heard very clearly by neighbors downstairs (if you have downstairs neighbors). I have a Yamaha 515, and my downstairs neighbor used to complain that I made his ceiling shake when I play my piano. Note that I always use my headphones. So they don't hear the music per se. I have read similar accounts elsewhere.
I have exact same problem with my downstairs roommate! Its not just me...
You savage 😂. You dissed Korg. Kronos, M3, SV2 and many other awesome devices. But to be fair, don't like their piano action that much
😂 I'm extremely biased
You are just great! I have just bought a very cheap flute and i don't think, i would have the time to learn the piano.
Amazing video albeit I think you should give Roland much more credit in the digital realm . I think their gp607,gp609 are absolutely amazing for sounds , quality and feel. Always a subscriber love the content and incredible music.
I had a Korg Triton Extreme in 2005. The best synth I ever owned WITH incredible piano sounds, but yea...”Don’t get Korg...”
Yes also atleast the sound for piano was market leading with the ssd streaming tech in the Kronos from the early 2010s to now. So it would be best to get a yamaha keybed and connnect it to a kronos for the sound engine for a real pianist i guess.
Smash that 👍 button. There’s probably a dozen ways to do it, but I’ve wanted to see Lionel’s midi LED setup forever!
In this video he has so much raw chad energy and I'm here for it
I would enjoy seeing your lights in a rendition of "Foreplay/Long Time", and maybe also "Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding".
3:14 well that depends on what keyboard your getting. There are both advantages and disadvantages to not having weighted keys. I find that it’s a lot easier to play faster with non weighted keys. In addition most synthesizer don’t have weighted keys.
maybe you just have weak fingers....
@@dany.2431 maybe so
@@meltingcolorsthatdontblend1982 not maybe
There is no advantages other than it beeing easier to play for beginners.
A real piano has much more resistance, and if u are used to it you will controll the dynamics equally.
@@nikitaedell AH yep you are completely right! it's a lot easier to control the velocity of the notes when you have a relative weight behind it. Well I'm sorta a synth scum and most of the synths I have don't have any velocity control.
4:02 why is Korg trash…?! I have a triton pro x and it’s great.
Never liked their keyboards, as I said I'm extremely biased XD
I have a Korg SP-170S and it feels great. The sounds are perfectly fine.
I have casio ap470 celviano and action is amazing, I highly recommend it as you get all features in to make your piano journey hassel free from beginner to advance 🤠
I listen to your video of you playing the black star over 100 times.
I have a Yamaha PSR e373. It's 61 keys but it's good for just learning and sounds awesome.
Edit: It's not weighted and has only 3 levels of pressure sensitivity but it's perfect for beginners.
NOOOO, It will ruin your entire touch damn it, DONT
@@davienng7859 I guess that's true. My brother has a Juno DS 88 key and I hate playing it because I play better on mine. Plus I prefer how mine sounds.
Edit: (The other options were either low quality or too expensive for me as a student)
@@davienng7859 This is such a stupid misconception, it’s like saying that practicing basketball on your home will ruin your moves because it’s different than the official pitch. Of course you will need to learn how to deal with the weighted keys when you move to a keyboard with weighted keys, but the other things you learned with softer touch are still valid
@@lumer2b a large part of piano playing is in the control of dynamics, I mean the name pianoforte itself highlights how important dynamic control is to the playing experience. a home basketball court is still a standard rim height so not a fair comparison.
a better analogy would be learning to shoot basket with a tennis ball into a cup. you'll still learn the general movement, but you will need some serious adapting if you want to score some baskets.
@@ferexx Yes, nobody argues that you will not need practice afterwards to get used to the acoustic mechanics, but some people argue that you can't play at all with keyboards and that if you can't afford weighted keys you shouldn't practice at all which is ridicoulous. When I moved from a synth action keyboard to a weighted keybed I didn't need to relearn the piano, just to practice to learn the weighted keys. All I've learned from hands movement, posture, fingering, still applies just as well.
