Why oh why the RH3 action again?. Some things already missing. 1- Pitch and mod wheels. 2- Split and layers FROM THE KEYBOARD in real time, not from the editor only. 3- Replaceable sound library. 4- More favourites presets. 5- Smooth sounds transition. There's a tough competition at this point, and other than nostalgia, I don't know how the SV2 can outperform current products by Nord, Yamaha or Dexibell.
This piano is not for you. It may well be for me. I've never had a better Rhodes than the SV1, and if you're looking for keyboard sounds, it's excellent. I found the acoustic pianos lacking in ensemble playing, but the on-board speakers are a big plus, and I'll try the new acoustic piano samples when it's available near me.
I demoed a ton of keyboards in Guitar Center. And this was the only one that made me feel like an artist. Like I kept wanting to play more. Sometimes it's not just about the features but the feel. No other new electric pianos even compare.
RH3 action seemed good to me when I tried it tbh. I want a Fender Rhodes but can’t afford a real one (nor can I afford a Nord). For me, the SV2 seems the thing I need. No interest in split voice or pitch bend, I wouldn’t get that on a Rhodes.
I am watching next SV2 presentation with the "guy wearing Korg t-shirt". It is a shame that such great musician is not mentioned by name in any official Korg video. Just Luke? Come on...
I really like the old school buttons. Almost like the ones on my old Korg Polysix. Great sounds but I won't be trading my old Kronos in any time soon.Still, it's great to see Korg knocking it out of the park with a killer stage keyboard.
Yeah...the preset section on this KORG (the 8 square buttons in the middle) remind me of my MOOG Polymoog 'Keyboard', I got laying around somewhere...so delicate. What beautiful machines, these SV's...
Qué buen sonido excelente! !!!!!! Es un sonido muy especial, tiene un toque dulce. Y el teclado se ve muy cómodo para tocar. Saludos desde Buenos Aires, Argentina ✌👍💪 TOD🌞S !!!! What a great excellent sound! !!!!!! It is a very special sound, it has a sweet touch. And the keyboard looks very comfortable to play. Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina ✌👍💪 TOD🌞S !!!!
On a stage piano that built its reputation on EPs, clavs, pianos, and vintage samples, these demos sure seem to spend an inordinate amount of time on strings and brass- which I'm pretty sure no SV1 owner nor fan was hoping for. I'm praying this time around there are multiple Rhodes and Wurli libraries included instead of reworkings of the same samples like in the SV1 service packs. PLEASE! I wish Korg would implement the Nord philosophy and allow new samples to be loaded into this model. Possibly on the SV3
Is this instrument targeted to the in-studio producer who wants a palate of orchestral sounds at the ready? Or to the performing musician who needs good, core keyboard sounds? Or is it trying to be both? Hard to discern from the demo.
@@annother3350 I would agree. However, to me the demo says “studio tool”. The guy is playing some magnificent pieces of music and presets that one would almost never use on stage. As a performing keyboardist, I’m looking for good vintage keyboard sounds like Rhodes/Wurli, Clav, organ and of course piano. This demo doesn’t do a good job of focusing on those sounds and what all the SV2 can do with them. Strings pads and bells are more the extra fluff I can use but don’t really need since I already have 2 synths for all of that.
I see Luke demoing the 73-key a lot - I wonder what he actually prefers? My biggest struggle is choosing between 73 or 88. I came up on full-sized pianos, but 73 fits across the back seat of the car and is a decent compromise...
Funny that "Inventor" guy here in the comments. He is trolling Korg video's with his nonsense about his 'keyboard invention' and when I point out to him, why his invention isn't a valid replacement, he blocs me and calls me a troll. LOL!
The Rhodes still sucks, or at least it doesn’t sound like the two I’ve owned in the past. I played a crumar seven last weekend and although it’s not perfect, it’s does have a lot of the characteristics I’m looking for. You can definitely dial in that vintage Herbie tone on it. Plus the connection with the sound on the Keybed is kind like playing a real Rhodes too. I just hate the stupid lights on it. But yeah Korg missed the mark again.
Crimson Analog when your product is clearly trying to resemble a retro electric piano ie “Rhodes” you better have a dead ringer. My buddy bought the Sv1 10 years ago. Knowing that I’ve owned a few over the years he couldn’t wait for me to try it. As soon as a played a chord I said to myself “nope, that ain’t it.” I didn’t want to hurt his feeling so i said it wasn’t bad. The connection between the sound and the keys was nice though. But I instantly felt the sound was an exaggeration of the original. Too much bell and bark with very little of the velvet in between. I had a 72’ mk1 stage in the mid 90’s. It sounded amazing but the action was too sluggish no matter what it did to modify. I sold it and bought an 84’ mk5 great action this time and a different tone. but I got it really close to the mk1 by adjusting the pickup distance. But yeah, that sound is petty damn important.
This guys knows many different genres,damn good keyboard player.
I have this keyboard, 88 key speaker model it's amazing and worth every dollar to me!!

This sounds bloody good but it does seem like they sacrificed ease of editing for looks
Wow, thanks for the homework, you've woken me up out of the impulsive idea of buying it... thanks(!)

It is great to see someone demo the keyboard who can obviously play it!

Luke Edwards 10:10
You are fabulous as a musician!
That Simpson’s theme was awesome Luke. You must have 2 brains! 😂👍👏👏👏

beautiful demo on a really nice sounding keyboard...nice playing....thanks Luke
amazing demo
I liked the sv1 so I would buy this I have the Korg Kross 2
This board will be great for James Bond and Jetson sound tracks. :)
He plays some bond on of the other demos that came out a couple of days ago.

Way to go korg.excellent
Has anyone experience with this as a MIDI-Controller throug DAW? Is it a good idea. The Yamaha CP88 seems to work well as a MIDI Controller
Following. Wish I could find more info on your question. Any updates? I want use this with UAD Luna and use their Ravel and Shape plug ins
It has real midi connection and USB midi, so as long as you don't need mod/pitch wheels then it's going to be great.
7:33 so relaxing
What was the song he played with the piano sound? Blazing fast .....
don't remember the original song but 2pac - Changes took this piano
need new demo songs ;)

Quit bitchin. You know your going to run out and buy it as soon as you can.
@@musikone1780 Prob'bly. Don't judge.
I doubt that commenting the same thing on every video about the SV2 will make any difference. But of course you're free to keep on trying. ;D
@@MacXpert74 Glad, you're a fan of my work.
@banjo pariah I've been closely following you. But you have to offer your fans some new stuff from time to time. ;D

The design says 'stage' to me

Play more Steely Dan, really enjoyed it

88 or death 😂
if you don't mind less keys then obviously the 73-key version will be more convenient.
Still can't layer sounds?
5:20 literally talks about layers

Yes, he's quite the special pumpkin.
i am not buying a stage piano to play the simpsons
Yes you can ! ;-)))
I’ll bet you couldn’t play it like him anyway,so shouldn’t be a concern.
But can it Djent?
I'd want a frigging happy ending for that price
At the 3:20 mark...
Great, but: the plastic looking sides are a major turnoff.
switch your LR inputs
Song title @ 8:42 please?
The way it is by Bruce Hornsby
How much???
Put it this way, selling your set of golf clubs won't get you this board.
What was the song he played on the piano sound? Blazing fast......
Ok... prices not so bad
£1700/£1800ish
You could probably pick up an sv1 pretty cheap now
The Simpsons 😄

You think it’s a terrible product just because of one sound?

Still no brass / horns? AGAIN?! Nord it is Jesus guys
Get a better stand for crying out loud.
You talk soooooooo muchhhhhhhh it's a bad keyboard few sounds
