I express my opinion as a medium of sheet music with a combination of acoustic instruments. Frankly, I am strongly impressed with the sonic frankness and sharp, raw feel of the K2700.
It amazes me how partisan a lot of the viewers are. What works for you works, and sometimes other pianos/synths will work too, when you get used to tweaking them. Soundwise, I might enjoy one model more for practising in my studio, and another for stage work, and yet another for cocktail piano in a restaurant or at a wedding reception. "Real piano" doesn't mean anything. And I don't go much for comparisons with acoustic pianos anyway. Acoustic pianos vary wildly, so why pick on just one to copy? And one day they may struggle to sound as good as digital pianos. Who knows? Meanwhile, let's try to appreciate each instrument for the great sounds it can offer.
I have the Numa X Piano GT on order. The price is reasonable. The Fatar wood keyboard action is better than the others. The size is not too big. The sound is neck and neck with the best of them. And then there are a couple of other things that I really like. One is the optional laptop shelf. That is simple, but so important. Another is the mixer for four external inputs with processing. Very handy for a couple of mics and a guitar. Another is the USB MIDI and audio interface and the routing to it. The Fantom has that too but I don’t like that piano sound as much. Very cool for mixing in virtual instruments from a laptop or an iPad on the optional shelf. The Kurzweil sounds really good as well. Certainly, all of them sound far better than anything that was available even just a couple of years ago!
Honestly they all sound great. Seemed like the k2700 had the most soul or organic sound. The Roland is a bit processed sounding. Was surprised by how good the studio logic sounded. All were played beautifully.
No contest Kurz takes the cake as far as sonically. Sound wise they've always had the edge in that realm. Starting with the K250 then K2000 now K2700. Some may argue for various reasons but even today that still remains true as it is, was & what set(s) them apart from the rest as the mockingbird of the synth world IMHO folks
Great work by a small but efficient italian team (Mr Gianni Giudici and other...) against yamaha's dominant power in the musical instruments market...imho! 😘😎😎😎
Italians are good at certain things. Raw speakers, midi keyboards and food. They think they’re good at a lot of other things but we won’t go into that.
I have the K2700 which is the best all-around gig keyboard for me. The TP40L is still good for covering organ while it has a great piano feel. I have a friend with the NUMA X88GT which has the TP40/wood, which must be the best keyboard for acoustic piano feel. Same league as my MidiBoard which I would never carry anywhere. The NUMA works great as a stage piano with everything you'd need there, Sounds are excellent. The K2700 just stretches out further. Depends what you want.
I could have written your post. I have a MidiBoard in my studio which consider the best ever but would never lug around obviously. I picked the K2700 as the best all-around and arranged for a friend to get the NumaX88GT for his studio as the best available now with the TP40Wood. You must be very smart.
It would be great in someone did keyboard reviews with each model followed by the same piece played on a properly miked up regular acoustic upright. Just to get a sense of perspective of how far these electrical magic boxes are from the real thing…
The Numa X Piano GT wheighs 22 kg, like the Kurzweil. Then you can also get that one and pay a couple of dollars more, but you get a full blown synth, sequencer, V.A.S.T., etc! And the sound is very audiophile too.
Fantom has a lot going on under the hood, for sure. I think probably overall the Kurzweils are more versatile. The Fatnom 8 gives you excellent key action in addition to the interface and power
@@jonathanosborn4800 The key action in the Fantom 8 is excellent indeed. I use it mainly as a master keyboard for my virtual instruments, and the amount of nuances and control you can intuitively get from, for example Keyscape, is awesome. Even fast glissandos with synth and organ sounds won't hurt your hands, while the keyboard feels like a good grand piano. Of course, the Fantom has a very deep, capable and expandable sound engine that keeps getting better after every update. I really should use more of its internal sounds. The built-in USB audio/MIDI-interface integrates quite well with Logic, too.
На мой слух, самые лучшие звуки на NUMA X Piano. А если учесть его цену и тот факт, что у него лучшая клавиатура из всех представленных тут инструментов, особенно в версии NUMA X Piano GT - Fatar TP/400 WOOD Graded Hammer Action, то выбор очевиден. Пожалуй остановлю свой выбор на нём.
Yamaha MODX should have not been matched with Kurzweil K2700 and Roland because those are Flaship keyboards and MODX is not at all like MOntage because in live sets the audio OutPut is not powerful enough. Thus MODX is too weak ; there is a reason Montage is more Expensive.

You'll love it.

Numa is fucking AWESOME!

So much is personal preference with these. Not to mention on some the adjustments are immense.
From Italian side I❤️Studiologic 🇮🇹
The Best !

Roland Fantom 👍
Cara qualquer uma dessas máquinas Eu taria muito e muito feliz rsrs
Fantom 8 and Yamaha Montage on a a few of the pianos. Fantom 8 is the most power and versatile of today.
Fantom has a lot going on under the hood, for sure. I think probably overall the Kurzweils are more versatile. The Fatnom 8 gives you excellent key action in addition to the interface and power

Thank you
IS NUMA X COMING WITH A TRANSPOSE?
IM SO STUCK, THIS OR YAMAHA P515??
Since there is no Nord (my favourite) I would have to go for the K2700
K2700 (y)
Numa X sounds awesome, but don't know that brand name. I prefer the Kurzweil, but the Numa X sounds great too.
Without a doubt Numa X Studiologic!
K2700 all the way. It is very real.
Korg Kronos forever...
