Excellent comparison, same music, same pianist on different keyboards, that's quite an usefull vid that allows to have an real idea about the differences, thanks so much !
Thank you. I'm completely new to pianos and your live playing guide unbiased guide has helped me a lot in my final decision. Thanks again!
Thank you for watching the video 😊
Kawai sounds so sublime compared to the other two. Hands down! I can’t wait for the ES 120 to come out though. I heard they did a few interesting upgrades.
thanks. much appreciated. went for the Roland one for the simple reason that was currently the easiest to find in my region. my kids are all currently absolute beginners so it should be more than fine, will see :). i personally liked the sound of the Kawai, but never heard it live.
Kawai without thinking
Great comparison. Thank you. Roland's new bmc chip is just great.
That was really nicely done, very well presented. I keep telling myself the FP-30X makes the most sense, then I hear the sweet tone of the ES-110 again and, oh... decisions, decisions!
kawai brand always delivers that sweet and very soothing sound. incomparable to other brands. that's why i love kawai.
Yes kawai es 110 better
Kawai better resonance
thank you for sharing this video! at first, he yamaha was my favorite bu listening carefully, I enjoyed the kawai better.
I had kawai es110 now i have p125, i prefer p125, sound and quality construccion
I looked for an interpretation like yours for bygone days and it's unique! Please share sheet music!
I purchased this piano in the white from Amazon and have had it for about a week now and really trying to like and keep it. Prior to purchasing watched all of the you tube shootout’s reviews, and comparison videos beforehand. In every case the audio quality was pristine and had a clarity and sparkle throughout the entire range of the keyboard. This clarity seems to be absent from my unit with the exception of the top three octaves. It’s hard to describe as I can hear that the quality of the samples are there, they simply lack that pristine audio quality heard in the videos. It’s certain that those pianos in the videos are coming out of the line out outputs and running through some EQ and additional signal processing. Thinking that perhaps it was the acoustics in my room I took the unit out and played it in church today with no improvement in the sonic quality, so I’m thinking of returning it and purchasing the RD 88. I already own the RD2000 so am certainly able to make a comparison but it’s too big to haul back and forth. I got this piano for the portability. Has any other owners experienced what I’m talking about?
The kawai model sounds nice. It just tickled my senses the most
I don't think you can go wrong with any of them. The key is to be able to play like you!
Nice demonstration , just wish the examples were shorter to hear the comparison
One thing I noticed is that the Roland FP-30X has a darker default piano tone than the other two. I'm eyeing the FP-30X just for the key action alone.
The Roland FP-10 is much cheaper and has the exact same (PHA-4 Standard) key action, you might want to check that out too.
(It also has the same tone engine for piano sound (SuperNATURAL Piano).
as we see below - it is matter of personal taste - every DP is good enought to play and have a joy with them
Great side by side comparison. ES110 all the way.
What are those pieces you played called pls?
Hi! Thanks :) In the description it says which pieces are played, but here you have it also:
Chopin - Nocturne no. 20
Joe Hisaishi - The Bygone Days
kawai piano sounds so natural. The touch is lighther than the other two. The price is much lower compared with them. The Ep sound is so warmth and so rich. The dynamics of kawai is very responsive. These are personal comments. Every musician hears and feels differently from others.
I appreciate someone playing with dynamics and playing pieces that show some level of different colors of the piano. This was well played. These keyboards are all fine. The 30X probably has the most tonal variation, the ES110 has the usual full Kawai sound with good sustain and the Yamaha has that clear tone that also is expressive. It's all down to preference. I does seem Roland and Yamaha have less complaints and problems than the digital Kawais from what I've read on digital piano forums.
Exactly, I really love the kawai sound, but I’m not sure about how long the hardware will last or how fast it will degrade
@@connorsmith2665 I have and play extensively for solo and various types of band gigs, a Kawai ES4 for 14 years, always was/is dependable, it still plays beautifully. Three weeks ago, I finally bought a Kawai ES110, wow what an upgrade in all piano playing/sounding ways, notwithstanding the 19 pound reduction in overall weight from the es4 to the es110. I believe based on my 14 year ownership experience with the kawai es4 that the 110 should be comparably reliable. Just my 2 cents. Others on this and other internet forums would/might say YMMV.
Out of these three which would you choose right now if your life depended on it @Benjamin?
@@danieljshapira4557 how’s the action on the ES110? I have a P255 but would like a lighter digital piano to take to church.
@@gustavopaulette3496 I prefer the Kawai of these three
Hi all.
We've many times some digital piano is based un that or that else acustic piano, like at least yamaha and kawai here.
Well. Can you compare a good digital piano (not an entry level like my Thomann dp-26 ) with its counterpart acoustic?
And, another, can you compare Thomann dp-26 (or medeli sp4000) with yamaha p45 or roland fp10?
Thank you very much!
We dont have access to the Thomann digital pianos. Maybe Thomann can do that comparison? ☺️👍🏻🎹
@@Digitalpianocom My propose is not about Thomann, it's about Yamaha, or Kawai, or Roland...
Mybe a Clavinova with a Yamaha CXF.
Great idea! Unfortunately we dont have access to a Yamaha CFX in our Showrooms. 🎹
About my opinion in this comparison the winning piano is Roland fp30x, the "colour" of its sound is unique!!!!! Besides the quality of keyboard with escapement make it the best digital piano, actually, in this range of price.
what's the name of the chopin's music? I really wanna know this music
Nocturne in C sharp minor
Isn't it the soundtrack from porko roso
The way to realistic grand piano sound amidst e-piano consoles is starting from 1000 usd....without wooden cabinet any e-pianos are simulation for stimulation to buy a good machine
Is FP-30X from a certain piano sample? Kawai sweet, even though it is not SK-EX. Yamaha bright and confident, even though it is not CFX.
I'm trying to decided between roland fp-30x and Kawai es120
Both are great. Good luck :-)
@@Digitalpianocom ty! :)
Yamaha have a beautiful sound, more natural. Roland sounds like electric piano
Kawai ✌️
Have the Roland FP30X and the Yamaha P121, also Kawai CA. Playing the Roland is incredibly emotional, especially when tuned with the piano designer. I forget the time with it, every time again! Yamaha sounds nice, neutral and clear but it's not nearly the same league as Roland (but it's way more transportable). Kawai's sound is behind, but the CA wood action is a class of it's own. For practice ideal and near to a good upright piano action. This video shows the sound differences pretty good. Better than other comparison videos. All are sounding good only with headphones, of course.
P125, only one to choose.
Nice playing , I am going with Roland HP704
Kawai es110 all the way!!!
I'm in the market for a very portable digital piano and even though Kawai have actually upgrded to the ES 120, the ES 110 in this demo outstrips the rest by far, IMHO. The others sound really good but the kawai just wins in the tone category.
Then go for the Kawai. Great choice ☺️👍🏻🎹
The ES110 is the worst in tone from these instruments. And it also has the most bouncy keyboard, I don't like it.
I am so in love with the Roland's sound, however, the fact that it's speaker face down has keep me from choosing it, haizzz 😔.
Yes don't choose it. I have fp30 and the speaker is horrible. Many times after recording a piece, i sit down on the floor just to hear the speakers directly on my ear 😅
@@kristoradion It's just personal preference, just so you know.
at this point, its up to personal preference
ive got a kawai es110, its the best
Roland is softer, Kawai and Yamaha sound metallic.
Roland without any doubt for me
Yamaha = 1:36
Roland = 3:14
Kawai = 4:57
i prefer the roland and got it.
🤣
@@user-xy8ec9nw3u i saw u in couple of piano review video so far :) i am looking to get one of the es110 fp30x budget range :)
what's ur recommendation :)
@@rahimieahmad2911 FP30X mejor tecnología y calidad
Roland FP-30x still has the speakers facing the floor. Which is terrible because the sound does not propagate the way it should. Kawai also has the grill facing down the floor but it also has a small part of the grill facing up. Which is cool. You did not talk about the missing "Sympathetic Resonance" of the fp-30x (Roland's SuperNATURAL sounds.... like SuperNaturalMissingSounds). Even with the new model, Roland doesn't have a clear sympathetic sound. No one talks about this. Everyone talks about the action and the USB capabilities. Not to mention the amazing pedal that comes with the ES110...
Do speakers matter to you?!
We dont need to argue about this. Its a matter of personal preference.
Yamaha its the best one
1:20
4:39
ES110 has the most "digital" sound and the least favorite to me, Roland is more colored and softer, maybe better for some pop or other genre, not a fan of yamaha's action, but all three are good in their own aspects.
kawai all the way
No this es 110 sound not good like p-125
I know this is Kawai ES-110 in this video, and I know it's a different price range, but just for example, I think the Kawai ES-120 sounds better than all of these 3, if I would want to buy 1 of these 3 and not too much in a hurry to buy, then I would save up for the Kawai ES-120 instead.
The ES-120 has the very realistic sounding SK-EX piano sound too, and much better speakers compared to the ES-110, so the ES-120 doesn't lack the bass so much like the ES-110 does.
Roland, compared to Kawai and Yamaha, sounds like he was covered with a pillow... As for the last two, they both sound good, but in my opinion, Yamaha sounds more natural.
The Yamaha sounds like a piano you'd hear in a classical recording. Very authentic. The Kawai is very nice, especially in the upper registers. The Roland is decent, but sounds artificial.
yeah, i don't like the sound of the 30x at all, but it newest so i don't know which to buy now :)
@@freyalunar3633 I just recently bought the P125 and I'm in love with it! The sample they used for the piano is crystal clear! Though the touch is a tad on the light side it's still very usable.
@@KM1980Music thank for the info, i'm on the fence between es110 and p125, but all the store nearby only have p125 sample, so maybe i go for that:. also love the sound of the p125 the most :)
@@freyalunar3633 No problem! It's unfortunate that most places don't have the ES110 on display to try out.
I chose Yamaha too.. I agree with you. And for Kawaii, is very good too but iI dont like (a little bit) of the lower octave sound.
Yahama sounded so less electronic for me .
All pianos sound electronic 😁
Kawai digital pianos sounding terrible artificially since decades till date. Have bought 2 in the CA Range, only usable with external piano expander (GEM). Roland sounds way more natural and has Steinway samples + physical modeling (as GEM).
What is "GEM"?
Thank you for your help!
@@kaisfp GEM was an italian company named General Music. They have introduced physical modelling, based on samples from Steinway D and Fazioli. Have produced digital pianos, piano expanders, keyboards, workstations, electronical organs etc. Was going insolvent due to quality problems.
Another biased review. When you change the volume, the piano type settings, and record in different ways.... viola, the difference!
