    I don't need it, but I want it! LOL Love the simplicity and of course the sounds! It's much more fun than playing virtual instruments.

    I'm a big 88 key keyboardist and workstation user myself. It's taking a bit to get used to my YC61 but for its size it packs a big punch.

    Edge and bang for buck still goes to the VR-09/VR-730 though as next man up for stage keyboards that aren't awful RED. Pianos are better on the YC but that's kind of where it ends. The organ is as stage great, the UI even faster, but the synths on the VR series sound great but also fall under 'very useful' in making for a great all-in-1 stage. Of course you can spend far more for not too much better with Nord, I'm not even really a Roland fan but I would advise people play with it before deciding.

    Hey. Seems like many YC61 owners are not digging the keybed of this instrument-lots of people report that the keys get really clacky and loose relatively quickly. It’s especially not what you’d expect from a pricey stage keyboard. So I wonder what your experience with it has been after having played it for a while. Thanks.

    • @SoundsAndGear

      i did not keep it, I was just testing it out. I'm not a live musician so I didn't have a problem with it. But it did not feel as good as the Nord imo.

      Recognize that for the YC series, each of the three versions (61, 73 and 88) feature a different keybed, specific to its intended use. The YC61’s waterfall keybed is patterned after organ keybeds. For a full hammer action (for piano and EP) the YC88 is your choice. The YC88 is more like the Nord Stage 3/4. The YC61 more like the Electro. I personally own the YC61 and pair it will a Numa X 88 (as midi controller) for Piano and. EP. The YC plays great and sounds better. Stage or studio.

    Hello . the piano on the Yamaha montage sounds better than the DGX 670 - 660 cvp. The quality of the piano and the sound. I use 2 Hs7 monitors and a Yamaha Hs8s subwoofer. Please answer me . thank you very much . Horia

      Yes montage pianos are more detailed than the DGX. Montage pianos are better but the DGX still has good pianos that are worth playing and enjoying.
