This is the best video of the D1. All others made it sound thin, they did not make justice to it. Other guys are more worried of showing their skills, not the instrument. GOOD JOB !
Pretty sure the D1 blends between the 4 sample levels. So it's not that you'll always be playing at one of 4 volumes so much as it is that you'll always be between those levels.
BTW, at around 10:45 where you were figuring out the difference between Bank 1 and Bank 2 of PIANO1, it's subtle, but it's this --- Bank 1 has a longer note decay ("note release" sample) than Bank 2, akin to the difference between a 9 foot concert grand vs. a regular grand piano. Apart from that, basic tone is exactly the same sample I think. On successive notes, you might distinguish the thickness/richness due to the decays adding up, even with the same reverb setting. Lastly, Bank 1 will probably need more control on the damper pedal, if you keep it fully pressed sometimes the even-longer decays of undamped notes makes the sound too "dirty".
If Korg added pitch bend and modulation wheels and a few sliders and knobs like Roland did with their RD88, I'd be much more inclined to check it out as a compact and easy to use stage piano and keyboard controller. Hopefully the D2 will address these features when it's eventually released! Are you listening Korg?
Pitch bend and modulation wheels, a proper small display, briliance slider, and main-dual voice intensity slider would be enough. Sell it 60-80 USD greater Mr. Korg, people would be buying a lot more for sure...
I want Korg to make a version with 73 keys for like 550$, or even add a more robust effects professor in it and charge 800 or 900. Like that Roland rd-64 but reasonably priced and with 73 keys. Anyway great playing and I absolutely want this.
I watch Anderton's channel purely because of Jack's keyboard demonstrations. I could give f*ck all for this Korg, but I just love his presentations. Cheers!
I think I’m going to stick with my N1. Old as it may be, I like the hands on controls I have. I also am happy with AI2 because of the nice custom programs and combis I have. Wish there was a nicer resonance filter for the M1 on this thing. I like a fairly dynamic M1 piano but am glad Korg includes it on this keyboard. Not having the M1 piano on a Korg keyboard would be a deal killer for me. But this seems like a nice affordable stage piano. I’d really have to play it a bit for myself though to really get a feel for it.
The N1 is a fantastic A12 Korg synth with what I personally consider to have the best waveforms taken from both the M/T Series and 0 Series workstations. It's extra piano PCM is also excellent for a late 90s rompler.
I have an N1 and now a D1. I much prefer my N1 over the new D1- even though it is ancient and a heavy beast. But the tones don’t even compare. That being said I needed a lighter more basic and compact 88 key board and the D1 is quite nice for what it is. But for most of my gigging- I still haul out the N1.
Lol why is there a lot of haters on this piano. It's an amazing piano. It sounds just marvelous. You really have to play it to understand. Everything from the feel and the sound is just rich.
Thank you. Been torn between Roland and Yamaha entry level models. FP-10 keys got a little loose and some developed a click just over 5 weeks into it. P-45 sound is somewhat muffled. P-125 better sound, still not as realistic as FP series, decent key action. Still wanting to find something that feels and sounds realistic with more consistent key action. Thinking the Korg D1 could be it!
@@vccranker I'm too confused too . Recently came across a video on TH-cam about the Yamaha p125 keybed issues. The black notes creates a bouncing noise. don't know what's the reason . Even Yamaha Arius ydp 144 has got the same problem. Btw what do you think about Korg d1
@@88keys. If you are an audio nerd and you have proper stuff like an interface the korg is the best piano hands down. no usb out - proper midi so you have super low latency asio with 8 buffer.

It's super compact and the action is better than anything else at the pricepoint. Nothing else really matters to me but the voices are good.
@@88keys. Hey, sorry for the delay. I hesitated getting the Korg d1 because other boards were cheaper and came with speakers.

So far, knock on wood, the Korg does not disappoint. With some Logitech speakers from BestBuy for under $100, and a homemade stand (basically a wide bookcase), the sound is great, the touch and feel of the keys is great, and the build quality is great also. Even the demos are really fun! I recommend you order from SweetWater if a local Guitar Center is not available.
I love this keyboard, esp. the action. Can anyone tell me how to adjust the volumes in layer mode. When I follow the directions in the manual there is no parameter for that function on the keyboard. Thanks
I have the same issue ... could be user error but manual seems simple to understand ... I can't get the Layer Octave adjust and Layer Volume function to work? Love the keyboard though. I've had it for 2 months now. Great action and sound, imo. Midi connectivity fine, etc., just have this function feature I can't figure out.
Does this keyboard have a good velocity range? I've played a Yamaha P515 & I own a yamaha clp-785, and its easy to have dynamics using their native piano samples, but as a midi controller they're quite poor. So if the Korg D1 can get to ~115 and ~10 easily, I may buy it
@@pianobard5478 Supposed to be the same keybed as high-end workstations (Kronos-2 / Nautilus) so one would suppose so, but you'd have to look at the MIDI stream to be sure (Pianoteq is handy for that, including the free/trial version, has a small footprint so it's easy to chuck on a laptop).

5 months late here but i was at the store the other day and the roland pha 4 action felt a little heavier and just a bit better quality, but it was also almost double the price for the korg D1 with rh3 so the d1 was the keyboard I got. Had to order in white since there are none in store so now I wait.
Not bad but the commercials butcher'd your presentation, rendering it partly incomprehensible. Otherwise it was technically informative. But the continuity was too often abruptly interrupted.

I suggest organizing the advertisements in some way that does not deteriorate your otherwise good presentation.

That would be cool! For sure.
Great demo, is it better than a Kawai es110 hmmmmm I dont think so. However this keybed is great which is the only thing you are buying. However honestly is there anything else you need other than a brill keybed and midi connections, well maybe? I think keep the bells n whistles as you can add that with VSTi's that blow every keyboard away. I'm amazed how heavy it is and it seems bulletproof, its built very well. My decision is this or ES110 and its tough one. Especially for practice, bluetooth to IPAD vs a million leads camera kit midi usb converter and death from tripping over them from too much drambuie! I think the cost of a USB and Bluetooth probably a tenner in parts is what takes stars from this great keyboard.
Ok, I definately like the humour and nonsense in the video, way too many reviewers take their business too serious, in the end it is always personal preference, reviews being just a first orientation. Insofar, the video would have been just as nice (or nicer) *without* playing nearly every single sound. Instead, I'd have preferred a comparision with let's say the FP-30 and a more precise description how the keyboard actions feel different. Who needs new sounds these days anyway?
I purchased one Korg LP-380 and with reverb switch on produces alot of "hiss"noise with the effect on , if i switch off the reverb it plays quiet without "hiss" (in the speakers , headphones and line out) , it is the same with the D1?
might be a dumb question but can this be used as a MIDI controller for software like keyscape/ravenscroft? I just want the cheapest midi controller with a decent weighted action. The VPC1 is too big and not quite perfect!
You absolutely can, if you have an interface with midi ports. It works amazingly well, I use it with keyscape and it's my favorite midi piano in general. The action is so damn nice
Hi need some help with connecting midi to my Korg D1 . I want to use my Built in sound together with mainstage at the same time. When i plug my lineout from the D1 it stops sending midi and only plays the D1 . Can anyone help.
I was in Andertons this time last year doing a side by side comparison of these two. Coming from a pianist of 40 years the main thing to consider here is the key action. To cut a long story short, I went for the Roland because a) It had internal speakers (which I really wanted), and b) because in my opinion the key action is better and more realistic. The Roland key action is definitely firmer than average, but the Korg is even more so, almost to the extent that it is too heavy. I would imagine playing it for any considerable length of time would become very fatiguing. A year down the line and I'm still very happy with my choice of the Roland FP30 :)
best stage would be something like kawi vpc with faders speakers and space for the mouse and keyboard i dont get why they dont make it there are so many home studio guys out there
Can anyone that has this keyboard tell me how to octave shift? I know how to transpose (from reading the manual) but information about octave shifting can't be found anywhere! Thanks
There is almost no piano come without a built in speaker, so this has no direct competitor in any keyboard category. If you wanna say price wise, I would say this will dominate the budget line Yamaha, Casio or Kawaii but these come with built in speaker. For Roland FP30 it is way more pricy in comparison. For synth category, D1 seems to lacks of sounds and sample option and most of the synth in this price range does not come with hammer action keybed. So it is hard to compare this thing to anything on the market. Not to say I want one so bad.
You just did compare it. I think it's the lowest cost 88 note keyboard with real midi ports and onbord sounds. That seems to be the big selling point to me. If you want a piano and to be able to control other hardware synths.
I received mine in the mail and one key was broken! Manufacturer defect or bad shipping? I’ve seen another video and amazon reviews where this was a problem. And if it can’t handle the shipping process, what’s that say about it’s ability for being a GIG PIANO?!?
I had a Kawai ES110, and replaced it with a Korg G1 (exact same key action as this D1). The ES110 keys had more bounce, but at the expense of more key noise, and I mean really noticeable thud sound at each press of the keys. But I guess that has more to do with the hollow cavity of the plastic casing of the Kawai not being "damped" enough, unlike the D1's much better enclosure. Also if it matters to you, on slow key press (soft notes) you would notice a bit of resistance point on the Korg like a simulated escapement but it's so slight and Korg doesn't even say it has it. Apart from being generally heavier weighted overall than ES110 keys, that is. But these nuanced things make the Korg key action a lot more realistic subjectively.
@@gwapster13 Can you play notes quickly. As in the same note in quick succession. Is it like a grand in that respect (even though as you say the escapement isn't proper) or is it like an upright were you have to wait for the key to fully raise?
@titaniumslug You don't need to wait for "full return" of the key before you can repeat a note on the Korg RH3 keybed. It just needs to be about 1/3 of the way down. It should approximate a grand piano action in this regard. I only mean key travel; tactility is of course better on the real deal.
Nooo Jack, thats. NOt coollll. 😳 my fingers is killing me. And its hurt as hell. I dont no why. But am i playing to musch . I cant drink of a glass ,schaking. 😢😢😢😢🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰 ps You play very beautiful. ❤️❤️❤️😉😉👍👍
Interesting sounds- tempting, but let down by the poor quality of the electric pianos. Also the piano sounds are all a bit too percussive, and sounding pretty close miked, which does not bode well for recording them straight from the line outs. Ok for a live environment where you have the room adding ambience. If only there was more ambience on the ambient reverb patches, and adjust the level of ambience. Punchy sounds, but may be hard to live with such "in your face" sounds all the time. The gap in quality between the main sound, the acoustic piano and the others is huge. Fundamentally this is a one sound instrument. Acoustic piano, and all the other sounds are not that good. But the acoustic pianos are very good.
you a daymn fool, this sounds like whatever you plug the midi into, the krome sounds like your fingers are playing an ungraded keybed. Because they are.
I just can't get used to the RH3 action. SO heavy. Classical pianists maybe? My personal touch preference of course- but try a high end weighted casio and see which moves you. (or better yet get a used yamaha with BHE action: s90, motifs, the first mo8....) you're not gonna use these piano sounds anyway. And live: going through a PA nullifies any sample superiority.
PA as in "public address". once you amplify a keyboard (especially when playing in a band) the subtleties of different piano patches (one company to another) really are hard to hear. hard to call one "better" unless you're in an ideal listening environment (headphones, studio monitors)- and a PA or combo amp is so far from an ideal listening environment. Of course this fact ignores the power of the PLAYER loving his or her piano sound and what it does to their playing....
Marc Osborn that's good to know. I just bought one of these and I was worried about the sample quality Have to disagree on the action. I love the RH3. I guess everyone has a preference
Oh man, the sound engine is the same (maybe a new piano) as the old model SP250 ... really Korg ! why ? Why not a piano with some sounds from Kronos ( a few ) sorry ...
This is the best video of the D1. All others made it sound thin, they did not make justice to it. Other guys are more worried of showing their skills, not the instrument. GOOD JOB !

@titaniumslug You don't need to wait for "full return" of the key before you can repeat a note on the Korg RH3 keybed. It just needs to be about 1/3 of the way down. It should approximate a grand piano action in this regard. I only mean key travel; tactility is of course better on the real deal.
Nooo Jack, thats. NOt coollll. 😳 my fingers is killing me. And its hurt as hell. I dont no why. But am i playing to musch . I cant drink of a glass ,schaking. 😢😢😢😢🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰 ps You play very beautiful. ❤️❤️❤️😉😉👍👍
Bom dia !eu consigo usar um piano com pad e baixar os volumes separadamente
Read the manual. Page 11.
Interesting sounds- tempting, but let down by the poor quality of the electric pianos. Also the piano sounds are all a bit too percussive, and sounding pretty close miked, which does not bode well for recording them straight from the line outs. Ok for a live environment where you have the room adding ambience. If only there was more ambience on the ambient reverb patches, and adjust the level of ambience. Punchy sounds, but may be hard to live with such "in your face" sounds all the time.
The gap in quality between the main sound, the acoustic piano and the others is huge. Fundamentally this is a one sound instrument. Acoustic piano, and all the other sounds are not that good. But the acoustic pianos are very good.
I have a Korg Krome 88, and thank heaven it doesn't sound like this. Entry level it may be, but I would rather get a Roland.
Hi, is Roland FP-30 better than the D1 ? Thanks :)
Sound-wise, big NO for me. Emphasis on "for me".
@@gwapster13 Thanks !
Depends on what one is looking for.
Krome does not have this awesome graded RH3 keybed.
you a daymn fool, this sounds like whatever you plug the midi into, the krome sounds like your fingers are playing an ungraded keybed. Because they are.
I just can't get used to the RH3 action. SO heavy. Classical pianists maybe? My personal touch preference of course- but try a high end weighted casio and see which moves you. (or better yet get a used yamaha with BHE action: s90, motifs, the first mo8....)
you're not gonna use these piano sounds anyway. And live: going through a PA nullifies any sample superiority.
Marc Osborn PAs use their own samples?
PA as in "public address". once you amplify a keyboard (especially when playing in a band) the subtleties of different piano patches (one company to another) really are hard to hear. hard to call one "better" unless you're in an ideal listening environment (headphones, studio monitors)- and a PA or combo amp is so far from an ideal listening environment.
Of course this fact ignores the power of the PLAYER loving his or her piano sound and what it does to their playing....
Marc Osborn that's good to know. I just bought one of these and I was worried about the sample quality
Have to disagree on the action. I love the RH3. I guess everyone has a preference
I don't want any other keybed without the RH3.. Grew up playing a real piano..
16 minutes of demoing a keyboard with a few sounds and a few connections?
do I need to buy a separate speaker for this?
yes
No, one active speaker could suffice!
Gerard Piqué What are you doing here?????????? 😛
Was that a d*#k joke - the bit about sustain pedals?
D1 vs p125 ？
if you want to play classical pieces go for d1 but you will sacrifice speakers, buy a headphone
Nice Mustache!
Tem como usar o piano com pad e baixar o volume separadamente obrigado
Manual, page 11.
as teclas dele é muito pesada?
This piano is with Great keys and worst sounding. Why korg give this type of worst sound No one can explain. If you can then please explain.
Oh man, the sound engine is the same (maybe a new piano) as the old model SP250 ... really Korg ! why ? Why not a piano with some sounds from Kronos ( a few ) sorry ...
SP250 the last good Digital Piano of Korg..
@@Zushikikato Hey, given what you said about the SP250.. Would you say there is any hope for the SP-170 or SP-280? Thanks in advance! : - )
@@vccranker AFAIK the SP-280 doesn't have the RH3 keybed like the SP-250. Feels like a toy/plasticky. SP-170 piano sounds thin compared to the SP-250.
Well, buy Korg Module or Korg Gadget for your iPad and you get any sound you want and a lot more!
I’d rather hear you play, than hearing some crappy demo. Just sayin...
He plays better than he talks.
huh? his playing sucks!
This is so sick that you jokeing about going to the shower with your sister.
He said with his sustain.... Get it straight
In Depth except NOT. Didn't cover the controller part at all.
geez dude, cant you play anything besides Gm F and Eb
