YAMAHA REFACE CP SOUNDS
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 มี.ค. 2018
- Really enjoying the Reface series! The CP model packs a Wurlitzer, two Rhodes, a Clavinet, a CP80 and a Toy Piano in a tiny yet enjoyable, and most importantly playable unit. Included are also various effects, and presets can be stored on an iPhone. It even runs on battery and has built-in speakers. I honestly haven't been excited about Yamaha in a while, but I'm definitely excited about this series!! This is a video of me playing around with the unit in my studio.

Best demo of the Yamaha Reface CP! Nothing but great playing!
Imagine my disappointment when I get this instrument and realize I can't play anything in this video
Hey man, if you have some time you can search around youtube for some jazz-beginner course. Also transcribing what people play is very helpful too
@@phucduongnguyen67 That's a great suggestion! Thanks man! Appreciate it 💯
That’s what I still do, keep it up, cheers!
This sounds so good, rich, warm and authentic, Yamahas analog modelling tech deserves greater recognition. Truly wonderful playing.
Yes it's fantastic, do you know if they used samples?
One of the best demonstrations of this mighty little instrument.
Thank you sir!
Johan Dalgaard of which I ordered one last week :) Very much looking forward to this tiny masterpiece
Thank you so much for this demo! Not only does it show all the sounds of the Yamaha Reface CP, it's also an education in playing keys in different styles and sounds over the years! And that REVERB! Wow. Sounds excellent! Just awesome. Thank you!
This is a great showcase. Thanks for only playing this great instrument instead of talking, talking, talking. I mean this is music - no need for ramblings.
Great skills as well that show what this CP is capable of.
Thanks. Yes, there is a lot of talk going on on TH-cam.. sometimes four minutes for one keyboard shortcut in logic, it’s astounding. Glad you liked the video, it’s an inspiring little instrument
Amen to that! Great playing and no banter!
eimsbush05 couldnt agree more! To much talking!
One of the best reface CP videos out there; these sounds are exactly what a prospective customer wants to hear!
I really enjoyed this demo! Beautiful playing.
I own a CP80 and a CP60. The CP sounds from this little thing are VERY accurate.
Best demo I've seen. Thanks. I need one of these.
Great demo, beautiful playing. I want one now!
Superb playing man!!!! This is a wonderful sounding instrument, especially in your hands.
The sounds of this fantastic instrument take my mind way back in the history of legendary keyboard music. Thank for sharing this great video and the music you play.
Brilliant demo thanks so much. Really good creative playing showing what the thing can do and inspiring for others.
Great demo of Reface CP. The keyboard did all of the talking for itself. You make me appreciate my CS & DX more now. 🎸Blessings🎶
Great demo, this sold it for me. Amazing playing!!
Foster96 Glad you liked it, still getting good use of this thing. The feel is really nice despite the tiny keys
Great video and nice playing man. I love my Reface CP and CS!
Wow, the variety of sounds you're getting is impressive. Great demo, thanks for posting.
Thanks!
Absolutely the best demo I've seen of any keyboard..awesome playing, great use of the effects and showcases a really powerful instrument at is very best..many thanks for a superb review of the mighty reface cp.
daniel gregory thank you! Glad it was useful
This is a great demo! Nice job!
Lovely demo. I picked up one of these used a couple of months ago and am having fun with it connected to my Korg SP-250. The combination can give some nice results. Cool to see you having so much with this unit considering the nice looking pianos that I can see in the background.
that's it. just ordered one. thanks a lot this demo is amazing!
Thanks! You will love it!
beautiful playing
I will buy one very soon . Thanks for the gigs , the Wurly is the thing i want .
Your playing is inspiring!
Phenomenal demonstration! Bout a 2 month wait to get one of these because of the chip shortage right now, don't delay if you want one. Mine came today! 😁
brilliant video! wish I could play like that! love the Rhodes sounds especially
Great playing, awesome sounds 👏.
You made it shine!
Great sounds and great playing - thanks for the video.
Danny James you’re welcome! Thanks for the message
Sounds great in the proper hands! I have one and love it, but I can't play like you--very nice!
I just bought this tonight, but you are a beast. Im learning from your playing awesome job!
Thanks! Hope you'll get a lot of happy hours making music with it!
Wow, great playing,
Thank you for playing I Wanna Be Your Lover for the CP section
Joseph Rollins You’re welcome! classic Prince is overflowing with CP
Absolutely superb, perfect playing, and demo. Probably the best on TH-cam that I've seen... thank you for this. :)
Glad it was useful to you! Thanks!
OMG... Awesome sound!
You groove Johan! 😎🏆
Great great great demo of this. Thanks
Skills!!! Sounds great, too
Fine playing. Classic 70's tunes & sounds. Awesome, great demo.
Cy Brunel Glad you liked it! All those songs come to mind when playing this thing, nice authentic retro vibe on all the sounds
What an excellent demo. You have convinced me that I need one. And like you I own a real Wurlitzer :)
Great demo. I hadn't realized the CP was so versatile. So much better than ROMples. Having got the CS and YC I should have guessed it would be.
Beautiful playing at 6:55! dreamin'
Great playing! Beautiful sounding keyboard!
Thanks!! A wonderful little piece of gear - sounds great, easy to play and very sturdy. I've dragged it everywhere for two years, still in perfect shape
actually three years! 2020 made me lose track of time...
This demo sold it to me..........Great demo great sounds .
julian cool, it’s a nice little machine. Love those built in speakers, ready to be played anywhere anytime
Yeh nice! cant wait just ordered 1 yestaday got it for £245....just wish I had your skills... though I'm sure these sounds will help me along.....Be nice to see some overhead shots on future vids so I can pause and study some of the beautiful chords you demonstate........Good work Johan!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻great performance
Wow ok, the piano is great but MAN can you play!! Really beautiful playing
sounds good!
Great playing 🎹
Great Performance and demo of this surprisingly good sounding little beast! I like your play and would really like to see it from a top view to learn some new things.
laut log I’ll try to do that next time!
Best demo.
You make this CP come alive. Just bought it on sweetwater. Thx. Sub.
C Wallace good choice! Glad the video was useful
Yamaha really hit it out of the park with these Reface 'boards. The CP was the first one I got, and I ended up getting the DX and CS too. With a half damping pedal, the CP is fantastic, on it's own or hooked up to full sized keys. the DX is cool in that it allows feedback on all operators so you can get some truly complex FM considering only 4 operator generation. I think better than the DX100 which I used to have back in the day, plus the screen makes editing much easier.. The CS is seriously underrated. Sure it can't do too much in LFO modulation and it isn't velocity sensitive but most early poly synths weren't velocity sensitive either. Very flexible oscillator with it's own dedicated mod section based on the oscillator types and an 18db filter that's got it's own character. The keys feel great on all of them considering they're mini sized. I don't have use for another organ with drawbars, but a buddy has that one and it's also flexible sounding. And they gave all of them a very decent effect section. They are a bit on the high price for what they are and they all have minor drawbacks.... except for the DX you need to use an app to store sounds, DX and CS are only 8 voiced and the looper on the DX is a bit tricky and even tougher to use on the CS. And the Keys, even though the keyboard feels top notch, they are mini so it takes a bit of adjustment. Anything else really starts to feel like a minor quibble. Well done Yamaha!
Oh, BTW, this is some serious nice playing considering the mini-keys. Just goes to show it can be played, and played well, but I'm with you, I would have to hook up full sized keys live.
It's shameful the dx is only 4op
Nice playing
Great... thinking of buying one..
Great touch and magique fingers.
Thanks!
that thing may be small, but the sound is Big and amazing. I am getting one...I want all the reface's, they all sound great
great review, thanks a lot
You're welcome! Glad you liked it
i was grooving to this video the whole time. i even forgot it was a demo lol i hope yamaha hooks you up with some gear for this awesome video!
Thanks! They did lend me this keyboard and the CS one as well, and haven't asked to have them back yet... really good products from them lately
Great playing. I frequently forgot to pay attention to the instrument haha.
Dadrian Wilson then I suppose its done its job! Man am I excited about mine! :D
Thank you! Finally someone made a proper demo! I'm sold! I want this to replace an old computer to run vintage sounds on a Doepfer 88 weighted key controller. I have another un weighted 88 on 2nd tier so I do not know where to put this thing! I wish they made a rack module of this!
Damn dude you’ve got quite the collection of vintage keyboards. I’m jealous
Lovely
amazing grace in the rhodes sounds too good. im gonna buy it around the 5th of september can't wait.
i did end up buying it. it's such a cool little keyboard. i've started playing with a few of my friends and it does its job! this is so portable, i can keep it in my backpack during the day and right after school go play with my mates.
Imo the best and little known part of this piano is that it can be used as a sound module! It has MIDI and this includes Midi IN! Basically, you can plug an 88 key fully weighted keyboard to it and it will produce sounds! I'm planning to do this with my Kawai CA78 to get these groovy amazing sounds!
Nice!
awesome synth, thanks for demo!
You’re welcome! It’s a fun little unit!

Well this caught me off guard programming. Nice nice nice!
I’ve been coveting one of these for a while but this video was the one that convinced me to get my wallet out. What a beautiful demonstration, thank you.
Tom Cooke thanks Tom, glad it was useful to you! You won’t regret the purchase, it’s a great little instrument
I like the song at 15:06....I have the YC and I want to get his one now lol...awesome compact instruments
You should! The song is Prince, I wanna be your lover. Classic CP80 tune
WOOWW 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 THIS WURLITZER !!!! THANKS !!
SOO BEAUTIFUL DEMO, SOUNDS AND PLAYING !
I owned the Reface CP but I sold it because I thought I would find 2 Rhodes in a compact piano for a low price, but I was disappointed by these two Rhodes emulations that the CP offers, they are sorely lacking in roundness and warmth in the bass compared to the Rhodes Mark and its Bass Boost, in fact there is no bass on the CP Rhodes!!
On the other hand, the Wurlitzer and the Toy Piano are really excellent, and the effects are passable!
Great demo
An ipad with Garageband and a midi controller make the same sounds, but it's so neat to have it all in one gadget. I'm so tired of screens. I wish there were more of these small keyboards with good sounds.
I'm with you on the screen thing. but i might argue that this thing sounds way better than the garageband instruments
Rich sounds
I noticed that sitting on the rack above the Whirly...you have a Vox Continental. NICE.
Wish I still had mine.
Yes, love that thing! There is an old Farfisa organ as well in the studio not in the frame. Vintage organs are so cool!!
I don't know if this 'cheat' is still active on current models but....Secret piano sound.
Turn off the CP.
Place the instrument selector button midway between any two instruments.
Turn on the CP.
You now have an acoustic piano sound.
adamandlorraine yeah I know. Cool little Easter egg, right?
does this still work on the current models? That's what I wanna know! :)
Yeah, haven’t heard anything to the contrary, everyone loves that feature!
Nicola S. I read somewhere that it still works but is maybe a bit harder to get the knob to stay between positions.
I bought one yesterday and yes, it's a little tricky to get the knob to sit between positions, but it's certainly possible, and the secret piano is still there
Nice
the CP looks as a little incredible jewel in the world musical instruments
All the refaces seem to be. I'm also loving the YC sound (esp the leslie!)
@@JonathanRCross if i had space and time enough, i would have bought all of them (....maybe some doubt just on the DX... i was more a Roland D- fan in the Eighties :-) )
Paolo Piergentili totally I'm longing for a cp and a yc for my vintage keys sounds...
I see the occasional text info but an overhead shot of the settings would be GREAT
Need one 😫
Thank you for the video. What about this Reface CP compared to the Voce electric piano ?
And what do you think about the Rhodes ? the bass....? when you go down in octaves, the bass of the rhodes are here ?
the DX may have 32 presets and this only 7, but quality over quantity, there's 3-4 sounds on here that are better than anything on the DX. Yes I'm aware you can make sounds on the DX, but they are gonna always have that electronic vibe which is useful some of the time but not all the time. the wurli and two Rhodes on here can be used in ANY kind of music, pretty much. If you are a pianist/keyboardist who wants to practice, play in bands, etc, this instrument is far better for that imo.
I really enjoyed watching your video and I am impressed by your astonishing talent and effort. I am just curious about the mini piano you used in this video. I am not great at playing piano at all but I can manage to play the piano by simple chords for K-pop music while singing. Do you think it is a good idea to use the mini piano as a portable instrument for family reunion or small-sized busking?
Yeah, sure. Depending on the size of your family you might need some bigger speakers, but it does a good job of providing an easy to carry accompagnement tool...
Was this recorded line-out to your camera, or via a mic from the built-in speakers? Great demo, btw. Thanks.
It’s the sound of the stereo line-out
Wow! You are amazing! I am looking to purchase one of these for portable practicing and composing but I had a major concern which you seem to have no problem with. I see you play standard sized keyboards too with full sized keys, do you find it really difficult to switch between full piano sized keys and the mini keys of the reface CP? This is my biggest concern since I looked at the reface quickly in a store and the keys are super small! But you seem to be playing astoundingly well and accurately on them.
Jade W. Thanks for the kind words! I find it surprisingly easy to adapt to the small keyboard, though I’m still a little hesitant to play it live... the keyboard is definitely the secret weapon of this thing. Compared to any other keyboard this size, the quality and playability is beyond compare, Yamaha apparently decided to make the unit a little more expensive than it could have been by cutting no corners on the keybed and responsiveness of the keys. Great call if you ask me, there’s a real quality feeling to this thing
you can always buy a larger keyboard and plug in in thru the midi keyboard port in the back
I'm not a keyboardist by any means. My main instrument is guitar. But I got one of these for home practice, and the key bed is amazingly responsive and not terribly difficult to use despite its size. I am also still very impressed how rock solid the construction of this keyboard is. I don't worry about the durability of it at all. By its size you'd assume that it is a toy, but the feel and sounds are definitely way better quality than a toy.
You will get used to them in no time.
This is no demo, this is a concert.
Are your built-in speakers incredibly quiet like mine, even when turned all the way up? Trying to figure out if mine is defective or misconfigured. Sounds great through an amp or headphones
Could you please tell me if you used a sustain pedal when recording this and also whether you think one is necessary with this instrument? Thank you!
I got one, but in my hands do not sound the same :D
2:33 hoo boy, gj
There's also a hidden Acoustic Piano ☺️
Shh, it's a secret!!
Great demo! I’m curious. What is the song at 16:03? It’s on the CP80 sound. Beautifully played.
WOW Amazing playing !!!! btw what was that first song, and what song was the clavinet/dist/reverb? or were u just making stuff up? World class playing either way..
It's Spooner Oldham's riff for "Never loved a man" by Aretha Franklin... not sure what key the original was in, but pure Wurlitzer tune without vibrato always brings this to mind!
What do you think about the CP sound from Reface CP, comparing to Modx?
Nice! Can I connect a midi bass foot controller in the Reface CP? Thanks
Great demo ! You rules ! Thanx a lot.
It seems this is the only affordable keyboard with CP80 sounds...
Do you know any other ?
Sylvestre Rawminey if you have a regular midi keyboard with 66 keys you can use this as the primary device, kinda like a pedal for a guitar.
Mx49 has the same sounds I've heard
This is awesome playing. I'm a beginner but want to play funky tunes like this. Any advice or learning platform recommendations?
Get some basic music theory under your belt, get comfortable with the major/minor triads and seventh chords in all keys, and start learning stuff by ear instead of relying on other people's transcriptions... learn what you love! Some basic technique exercises like Hanon... for the funkier styles, check out some drumming paradiddle exercises, will help with the left/right hand coordination
@@johandalgaard awesome thank you
what is the best for this model in term of speakers ? I have the yamaha THR5A amp for my electroacoustic guitar... do you think it is compatible through the input or usb plug ?...
I don't have a Reface but I run my synths through a THR10 - just go from the main out to the THR's input with a guitar cable. I usually use the flat mode but it actually sounds pretty good through some of the guitar amps.
Great playing! What’s the song at the 15 second mark? It’s on the tip of my fingers but I can’t seem to remember what the name of it is!
