    The only thing missing in your comparisons is a Sound Demo with the exact same melody & playstyle with direct recording through Audio or USB output. 10 Seconds with all dynamics (soft/hard, low/high) would already be enough. Since it's ultimately up to one's taste, all that explaining sure may help but always leaves one wondering a bit in the end as the speakers may alter the impression. That would round it up perfectly! Otherwise very professional comparison. Highly appreciated.

    Should have mentioned that with the FP-10, it has 15 voices, but if using Roland's app, it actually gives you access to the 35 voices that the FP-30 has. For reference, the Yamaha has 24. So the Roland FP-10 does have more with the use of the app.

    After seeing this review I though that the Roland was the better choise. My daugther, after playing both, found the Yamaha more givng the feel as a real Yamaha Grand Piano. Also that the Yamaha was sounding better. The same conclusion by comparing the FP30 with the P125.

    I looked for a comparison and didn't find one when I was shopping. i ended up buying FP10. I am little more than a beginner but came up from a 61 key keyboard. Now that I see this comparison I realize that I bought the correct DP fir myself. I love the sound on the Roland. Thanks Merriam Music for this comparison.

    Fantastic video, thank you. This will be my first digital piano purchase after coming from a small grand, and I'm going to go with the Roland. I've always disliked the "bright" Yamaha sound, even on acoustics, it's always sounded metallic and jarring to me, so I love the softer Roland sound - more like a Steinbeck ^_^ And since I'm going to be playing classical solo piano I think it's more important to go for quality over quantity for individual notes - even Rachmaninoff never needs more than 80 notes at a time, but to be able to get that tonal quality for each note will be priceless.

    7:00 I don't know whether anyone else here has ever mentioned it - to my personal taste (and based on my very limited experience of trying them out), Yamahas generally seem to have very own kind of action, including one of their acoustic instruments, and that word you use - 'spongy' - aligns well with my impression of them (again, including acoustic ones).

    • @MerriamPianos
      @MerriamPianos  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is true that Yamaha pianos have a very distinct touch. That is the case with most manufacturers. Every manufacturer has their own philosophy in terms of what the perfect piano tone and touch is. This leads to quite a big disparity in terms of the feel of the actions from manufacturer to manufacturer.

    question for anyone who's used both. I want to get one of these for a 5 year old so she can start learning on playground sessions. I've watched about 15 videos on each and some comparison videos too. The Roland has a heavier key action, I know my hands could adjust to it no problem. But, I'm not sure how it would be for a 5 year old. Would it maybe be better to go with the P125?

Since I use Bluetooth on my YAMAHA P35 that is a nuisance. Yamaha were late on the scene with MIDI, designed by Roland in conjunction with other major manufacturers, and made a mess of it. They misnamed the keys used to initiate it because they only had short keyboards, and still do call C4 C3 etc.. Their Bluetooth MIDI UDBT01 does not work on Microsoft - luckily Roland came to the rescue and I now use Roland WM-1 for iPad and the WM-1D USB interface for Microsoft. I have wasted enough money on Yamaha, who have a fascination with iPad, my next keyboard is going to be Roland probably FP30 or FP60. They have a better escapement action, an excellent sound engine and easy Android interfaces that can link to Microsoft along with straightforward MIDI interfaces.

      @@jortepap Yes, some people prefer the older CFIII and C7 type of tone compared to Yamaha's revised CFX and C7X type of tone. Yamaha didn't want to be associated with just a bright sound and wanted it to be more suitable to primarily classical and jazz and less so pop. So, they changed the sound.

      Yamaha adjustment can be a nightmare as I discovered on my P35 where they describe the adjustment keys along the lines of their short keyboards. Some keys are flagged with engraving on the keyboard but things such as MIDI or split operation are a mess because they call C4 C3 so resetting default MIDI for example when the manual states C6 it means C7 and their support people often do not know this as I discovered over email enquiries.

One note on this 'list' - the only reason I put the FP10 below the ES110 would be the speaker size/quality, and the sample set. I happen to like the PHA-4 action better than what's on the ES110 personally...though it's a slight preference, not a drastic one. - stu

Even though it's not written anywhere, I've done side-by-side comparison of the two on sound, and the FP30 is a more complex waveform...though I'm not sure I could tell the difference if it weren't side by side. I haven't found the PHA-4 action to be sluggish, but again that's just been my personal experience. The reason I prefer the PHA-4 over the RHC is that I find the RHC action to feel a bit too loose and the keys too bendable when playing more fast and aggressive passages...as in the lateral play and the accuracy isn't as good as the PHA-4 in those specific situations. Kawai seems to have resolved most of those in the RHC-II which is on the KDP110.

    I got Roland FP-10 three years ago. I had it for 3-4 months and I replaced it with A88 mkII. Three months later, I got Roland FP-30X that I had for four months. Do you see a pattern developing? Yes, each and every time I replaced a Roland digital piano with (such a great) PHA-4 action because the keys developed annoying clicking noise (lots of TH-cam videos about this problem). I did hope that it was just a problem with one implementation of this action, each and every time (till I smartened up).

      @@MerriamPianos Perhaps it also depends on how sensitive digital piano users are to clicking noise of the action. I definitely am and so is my family (I mostly practice using headphones or play at very low volume). NWX was the quietest action I had, PHA50 was the second best in this respect. The worst was the action of ES110 that I returned the following day. ES120 or any Kawai action are almost equally problematic. I frankly do not care if a Kawai sales person tells me that acoustic piano actions are also loud and sometimes bouncy - I would not play them with my headphones on (unless it were a hybrid piano) and frankly I just want quiet action.
      The problem with clicking noise of PHA-4 after some time is well known. I think that even Stu mentioned this issue when talking about PHA50 action and comparing it with PHA-4.
      Anyway, I will test it again and I will record the noise of the action (I did it for all returned Roland pianos).

      In the world of pianos, everything comes down to subjectivity and personal playing preferences. A heavier action doesn't always necessarily mean that it is going to be more fatiguing. Many players complain that light actions diminish their sense of control, which makes them play with more rigidity and stiffness. Naturally, this can be quite tiring. Every player is different, but that is what makes the whole realm of pianos quite fun.

      That's the thing. I agree with most of what the presenter said and enjoy his playing. However, I can't agree with if you are using the piano primarily as a piano go for the Roland over the Yamaha. And it's because the Yamaha has that Yamaha sound that a lot of people connect with. I do agree that Yamaha's action, piano key feel isn't as nice as the Roland's. And maybe the Roland's piano sound is somewhat more "complex." And I have no problem with enjoying the Roland's piano sounds. But I dig the Yamaha's piano sounds and I primarily would get the Yamaha because of the piano sounds and only occasionally use the other sounds and put up with the less than optimal action.
      But I don't think the Yamaha sound is better or worse than the Roland's. Just different. I think in the higher level Yamaha's, I prefer the Yamaha's tones and also like the Kawai's tones and Nord's tone over the Roland's tones. But not on this level.

    • @MerriamPianos
      @MerriamPianos  4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Hi Cyrus - obviously in an apples-to-apples comparison, higher is always better. A Roland FP with 192 is better than a Roland FP with 96. What I was getting into is the fact that there isn't a particularly great way transparently comparing between brands sometimes...here's a specific example: let's say that one tone engine combines 3-4 samples together, a main key sample, a sample of string resonance, damper resonance, cabinet resonance, and that every note triggers all of those layers, and that it can handle 96 of that at once. That would be listed as a max polyphony of 96, even though there may be 2x3 times the number of simultaneous elements happening to create a complex tone. Compared with another piano with 196, where there is only a single sample with no additional layers of nuance being added. So yes, one can play more notes at once, but the other has a dramatically thicker, more complex audio - so difficult to declare one "better"...I'm not sure if that came out in the video adequately, but that was the point I was trying to make :p - Thanks for the question! -Stu

      @@cyruson8883 Actually the FP-10 features supernatural sound engine from Roland. This only uses a sample at the start of the sound, and has far improved velocity control as there is effectively different sound per velocity level (dynamic control). So that's 128 different sounds per key. Because it is not playing back multiple samples simultaneously for each individual note (the sound evolves through modelling) it requires less polyphony than a sample playback engine which spreads a maximum of 4 velocity sampled tones across the 128 levels of velocity. This means at times multiple samples are playing (and using polyphony) as sounds are cross-faded across the velocity range to give an approximation of dynamic control. The Roland system is superior and requires less polyphony to produce the same number of notes (depending on the velocity the key is struck with) and is overall more 'natural' as you play dynamically.

      I tried a Yamaha p 45 earlier this week. It seemed to be weird as it felt like I had to push through something to get the note to sound. It was playable, but it kind of threw me at the beginning, I did adapt to it and was able to play.

    I am looking for an affordable keyboard as a present for my wife. She is a concert pianist and appreciates a fine instrument (e.g., Steinway or Bösendorfer), but for many reasons, we had to sell her grand piano a few years ago. I think she would enjoy playing a keyboard just for fun, but I don't want to spend $5k on a new professional piano keyboard. Would she be satisfied with this, or just feel like it's a toy?

    The Yamaha sound is incomparable. It´s a pity it doesn´t have a great action, no escapement like Roland, but the sound is superb !

      @fartpoobox ohyeah Two different opinions. One is not right or wrong. It comes down to personal preference. Roland and Yamaha both are excellent brands. I have a Yamaha, my girlfriend has a Roland digital piano. I enjoy both equally but for totally different reasons. Ultimately, I'm most musical on the Yamaha, but, some connect more with the Roland's sound.
