    sounds to me that the piano/rhodes/strings/brass/synth sounds are well represented and can just about cover any live playing gig.. The weakest link is the organ area..Not too heavy to carry, great keybed feel, not too expensive, smooth sound transition and quick access via favorites buttons...It's a winner. I'm in!

But with Nord you can ofcourse Download their sounds from web and of has a higher resale value if that matters to you :)

    • @benallen5967
      @benallen5967  3 роки тому +1

      Not sympathetic string resonance, but Yamaha has implemented damper resonance which does model some string resonance, as well as that of the soundboard and body of the piano. In a live setting, with other instruments, it is quite effective... but no, it isn’t true sympathetic string resonance like Korg, Roland, Nord, Kawai, or Dexibell.

    • @benallen5967
      @benallen5967  3 роки тому +5

      I too have a stage 3, and even though it is the compact version, I’ve also owned the 88 and HP versions. I have the CP88 and YC61 in my studio right now, and I can tell you... even the YC88 is NOT a competitor for the Nord Stage 3. Do the CP and YC 88 have amazing key actions? Absolutely. But does the total CP or YC package compare to what you get with a Stage 3? No... not at all. Nord has a FAR better organ engine in their Stage and Electro series, than Yamaha has in the YC series. The Leslie sim is bad in the YC..Nord has a Leslie sim that compares favorably to the real thing. The Synth features and ability to add your own samples in the Nord Stage 3 blow the Yamaha out of the water- and finally, Nord has a much better selection of piano samples to choose from. Yes, the piano and ep samples in the CP and YC are excellent, but the overall package of a Stage 3 blows the CP and YC out of the water. Now... since we will both agree that Nord’s Fatar actions aren’t the best in the Stage 3- I suggest getting an external keyboard to connect to your Nord (my setup is a StudioLogic SL88 Grand under a Stage 3 compact). This will give you the beat of both worlds, and in dual keyboard mode, the Stage 3 becomes TWO keyboards. The SL88 Grand uses a Fatar TP40 Wood action, which feels incredible, responds very well, and to me, is a joy to play. It’s the better version of what is in the Stage 3 88 (which is a Fatar TP40 M weighted the same across all keys). Also, the Roland board with PHA-4 or PHA-50 play very nicely with the Nord. The RD-88 or A88 for example.

      Great question! So, the Kawai is flawed in one big way. It sounds great, has a simple interface, and is a well built instrument.. BUT..I was never able to get the velocity I played at to correspond with the sound I heard. That is to say, no matter how hard I played the Mp7Se, it just never felt like I could get it loud and raucous enough. Weirdly, the same wasn't true when using it as a MIDI controller for other keyboards, and it isn't true of the other Kawai instruments I've played. But I tested several of the MP7SE and never could get them to respond like I wanted, despite playing with the velocity curves.

      I do like the fact that the CP88 is upgradeable, has wooden keys, and it has XLR connections.
      Regarding the action . . . Does the MP7se have more of a bounce or bobble when the hammer "returns" after the key has been played compared to the CP88? If so, did you find that annoying? Is there more keyboard "noise" on the MP7se?
      Also, is there a way to plug in another sound source (CD player, music from a usb drive, etc.) into the CP88, so I can play the keyboard along with a recording (like you can do with the MP7se)? Again, thank you for your time and expertise !

    The question I have not been able to find an answer for is - do the newer Yamaha YC stage piano/organs add any new or improved sounds in the piano/electric piano categories, over and above the CP88/73?

    • @benallen5967

      Happy to answer that for you! I have a CP88 and a YC61 sitting here right now. Piano and EP content are identical as far as the basic samples- actually, the YC is missing some of the ones that the CP has, as far as pianos go. The YC implements it’s effects slightly differently, but that difference applies mostly to the other sounds. The YC series is essentially a CP with an organ engine, a slightly different effects process and layout, different key action options, and a filter/EG section, which again is mostly applicable to synth and other sounds. Otherwise? They are nearly identical. If you don’t need the organ engine, the CP series is the better choice.

      @@benallen5967 Thank you ever so much Ben. Your love for music an pianos has been infectious. And I have over recent years enjoyed many of your extensive keyboard demos. Moreso now that its impossible to go into a shop and demo one. I am fortunate that I did try out the CP88 in person (at a store nearby) so I know from recollection how that sounds (caveat - through their shabby sounding pole on a bass box - mini line array, from a never heard of copycat of the highly acclaimed Bose products - some stores are terrible - pairing a top of the line product with such a useless amplification system - next time, I'll take some headphones to hear them properly).
      I have been a Yamaha fan boy for very good reasons - typically great sound - decent keybeds and reliability (but I do also like things from Roland, Nord, Korg but do not own much from these chaps - only one vintage Roland sound module which has not seen much use recently). My main workhorse is a CP33 which I no longer use for its own sounds, since its only purpose now is to serve as a keyboard controller. I stopped playing live at church a few years ago, and now only play at home, so no immediate need for a newer stage piano. Nevertheless I like to keep up with what's happening to these kind of "toys" - in case I ever need one again. and your videos have been most valuable in this regard.
      My only gripe with stage pianos is their limited dynamic/expression range, when compared with sampled pianos on PC/Mac. While this limited dynamic range benefits their use on stage, cos you want the sound to cut through the mix. Sampled pianos have their own issues, finding decent ones can be a challenge and there are no returns after you have bought!! - so quite a bit of trial and error, including then need to adjust effects and velocity to get them to sound right on your own specific midi controller keyboard, and fit your own playing velocity preferences. Furthermore in a live performance, who is going to notice any of the subtleties in a well sampled piano on a PC/Mac.
      Guess for a well heeled keyboard player, the advantages and contras of each approach is not an issue, they do not have to force a choice, they can have both on stage - portable stage piano with its own internal sounds + sampled pianos running of a PC/Mac.
      I think the Yamaha CP88 has decent sounds that definitely cut through for live work. For really expressive personal enjoyment, I' do love my piano sound played back from a sampled instrument on a PC/Mac for that full range - no limitations sound,.and a great choice of some of the more advanced sampled pianos like Synthogy, Garritan CFX, Vienna Symphonic Library, Waves Rhapsody, or pianos from Production Voices.
