Which Brand Has The BEST Piano Sound? - Nord Vs. Roland Vs. Yamaha Vs. Keyscape...

hello and welcome to anton's tv my name is jack duxbury and this is d bingers and we're going to be blindfolding d bingers and checking out some keyboards look on the screen the keyboards are about to shoot daniel how are you doing? I could play your salad fingers, I have four keyboards underneath for you and would you like to blindfold yourself please and then we'll get into it while he's blindfolded? I'll tell you what we're going to do, see? Those keyboards we're shooting Dan is going to appear in the blindfold. I've set them all to their signature type of

piano

sound

, so I won't do that.

I'm trying desperately not to reveal what's underneath. I'm going to have to recruit Taylor to fly and remove the blankets, okay Taylor, Taylor, right, I have a whiteboard to record Daniel's thoughts like before and then at the end, Daniel, we're going to do scores out of 10 Okay, but you were saying something that you had been reading the comments before, right, yeah, and people were saying that kind of level of consistency in terms of what I play in each of them, so you know we can compare better, but hopefully not in the middle of the keyboard yeah, but you go and play the same thing and then you probably do, you're going to start there, it's gone, it's gone, oh, I'm sorry, I can't help it.

Well, let's try the initial impression I have, Daniel. to push you on that, okay, it's not the

best

piano

sound

I've ever heard nor the

best

kind of feel, but you know it's not bad, it's not necessarily what I'm looking for in a piano, so my initial thought is brilliant , concise, okay. Okay, let's try to do the same thing, do the same kind of things well. Better. You already know. It feels. It sounds much more like a real piano. You know, I feel like I'm right in the room with a real piano. um, yeah, um, such a reasonable touch again, it's not, um, not the best action on this, but, in terms of the sound, you know, the piano temple is nice and rich, quite authentic, yeah, How was the difference in the keys? go back and forth, yeah, I mean, I know I've used this word before and in the descriptions, but this feels a little plasticky and cheap, the one below maybe not terrible, I mean, it's certainly playable, but um, It's like I don't know, it's a little soft, cool, feel free, yeah, feel free, turn left, your other keyboards left, sir, okay, it's really hard to play that one up there, um, Uh, no.

Yeah, not bad, all the pianos sound again, I think this is potentially the worst action of the three I've played so far, good, good, good answer, okay, true, beautiful, beautiful sounding piano, similar again a um, I think the best. the one on the right, my right authentic real piano sound sample, um, I feel like I'm in the room with the piano, um, and I can hear a little bit of the old pedal noise, I just play the pedal, um, Yes I like that. Isolation, it sounds, but when you play like you have such beautiful timing that you can, it accentuates the timing, especially in that piece that you're playing, yeah, um, it's yeah, and that's what you get again with the real thing that you know. what I feel like um, all the boxes are checked here to replicate a you know, a good hand on the piano, you want to go free range, dude, wow, no, I don't know about this?

Okay, well, about two seconds, um, okay, we're back to square one. patch there um, i used the panel lock, you had a good pun there, local pan off camera, love it, love it, sorry, it was a lot more fun when I let you see it properly, let's be more like alan patches, y'all The time uh free range bingham beautiful okay, I mean, comparatively, could you just I'm sorry, I mean, let me at least play, I mean, I can imagine that that piano sample would be pretty good to play because it's kind of like cutting, it feels like, you know, being very applicable to that, um, it's not terrible, but you know, you just know, if I'm comparing even just to the one below, both the action and the sample, you just know that no, I don't really know. they compare so Yeah but you know it's certainly not bad I just have a little free age bingo on these other two yeah don't worry sorry I'm just trying to get around blindfolded and also give you my opinion on Dan's first time in the big room here. so we can set them all up, it's better than the first one I got credit for, if I'm honest, yeah, okay, we'll move on to this beautiful player, thank you, sweetie, once again, I feel like I'm feeling pretty good.

Like it's a real piano again, anyway, I must say that other videos will also come out with us, we will have a whole day with you, friend, yes, and we will be attentive because there will be some where No is blindfolded and it will be better Wait for those chords, but I already have them here. I'm going to push it for some sheet music with my eyes still on. Yes, no problem, so let's go to the bottom left keyboard 10 please sir. Can I do decimal points too? Oh yeah, you can do whatever you want. I guess I want to go like 9.5.

Yeah, do you want me to give you more details or just the scores now? Well, you said about that, you said that. the feel was better and the sound was better, so yeah that was 9.5, what about the one above? I'll give this one here a six. I'll tell you what you said about us when you take off the blindfold. one to your right and lower and this is a seven oh I don't know I'm making that noise every time and the top one I'm going to go and 8.5 I did it right slash nine but I want to know I'm going to keep 8.5 8.5 right , what we're going to do is take off your blindfold and, yeah, do it here we go if he's back in the room, right, you've been playing daniel bingham to your left, you've got a Nord Ground stage on top of that. a

yamaha

setup, okay, and then that's a

roland

phantom 88 and the red herring we threw in there was the casio cdp s 100, but we're running it on my laptop, from what I see, and it was moving a little bit of key things, now a big The first question for me is: Did you feel like you were playing any software?

That was in terms of response. Any latency. No. Not a bit. No. I wouldn't have thought that at all. I had no idea because yes, we have done another one. keyed video and some people were asking how it felt and it really is I'm running a macbook pro like an i9 and the samples I have are coming from an external drive but it feels just as snappy yeah absolutely yeah um. I guess the only thing that lost points against that is that, um, because you can obviously use, you know different controller keyboards to use with that, the only thing is that you know the samples are pretty much like, you know, neck and neck. but it's just the interplay between the feel because it's all internal there, they nailed it, they nailed the interplay, whereas you would have to modify or maybe use a different keyboard or something with that sample because it's just as good, and I know there's seven, yeah, and I wanted to throw it in there, that's just a three, uh, 300 pound keyboard, one that I really like like I've said in previous videos, yeah, we did, yeah, check out that other video where Play it, yeah, I did it I added there because it just makes it a real option for people.

When you check the prices in the links, you can probably get a second keyboard from our macbook and that's for the price of some of these keyboards and um and none of the recording aspects anyway is a different thing uh what's your favorite feeling of all of them well I guess Scotty this does and looking at it you can see why that's james kauai's um kawaii action actually yeah sorry kawhi always does it Raining on me oh yeah it's just yeah cool I just did it achieve, yeah, it's just you know, I don't understand why these haven't followed suit because I guess as far as the price, I don't know what the price was. there's a lot of money, yeah, amazing and they're very heavy, uh, Taylor, we brought them, that's a consideration, the setup and this Roland were very heavy, the Nord strangely was, but obviously we have a lot of sound that we're just picking out . their piano samples yeah, um, I haven't played this before, they weren't, they certainly weren't, I mean, this is what they are, um, they're also used for other things and then they're not like me.

Not completely shitting on any of the pianos, you know, they're probably very good and sound good in a mix or live and stuff, and they do a lot of other things, so they're great, but purely for piano, well, I think it was beautiful I hope you learned something. You also learned that he's amazing blindfolded. Watch other videos where he is not blindfolded and for a little treat, can you just play with us baby, and just free and with your eyes open, enjoy the keyboards. I feel bad about that in all those others. videos I kept it blindfolded because you have no idea thanks for joining us if you like what we're doing consider subscribing and uh if you don't let us know I'll give you Daniel Big it's just that that's pretty precarious yeah I can actually move it or lock it think on the panel lock, yes, pun, a shocking final look
