Had decided to stay off buying gear this year, but because of this I will most likely fail. Sorry to say you're wrong, but this is the coolest gear known to mankind.
Once I disabled the IFX and built-in delay using the app I plugged mine into the Boss Me-80 and I'm getting some incredibly nice sounds out of it. 90% of the time I play it I have one hand on the headpiece to bend and mod as needed but the 10% of the time when I play with two hands on the keys I'll have it on a stand, even I don't like to turn into a trex on stage. let me put in simply...you have to put work into it for it to sound like how you want it to sound.
Great, entertaining video that probably was the most intelligent (yes that’s right) review of this that I’ve seen. Nice to hear someone demo this with real world perspective and a sense of humor. It is just a live performance tool, certainly nothing to use for an entire night in “keytar “ mode, but good for stepping out and hot dogging on a few tunes. Sound engine is usable as a secondary keyboard, could use it with wireless midi like a Panda unit, would probably just edit factory patches for my own sounds with the typical horrible Roland editing software. I agree should have a stand for 2 hand parts. Love the T-Rex comparison! Is the keybed decent? Similar to a Jupiter 80 or 50?
Oh maaan, I'm genuinely embarrassed you've seen this mate 🙈Love your videos my good man and am glad to see your channel doing so well my luvvverrrrrr! If you're ever over here it would be great to meet up or even shoot a video or two - only if we speak in full Dorset throughout though?!! Much love to you mate x
You could absolutely strap it on higher, exposing your balls (as one should) and covering up your belly. Best of both worlds in my estimation, that's what I would absolutely go for.
next time we're both in deepest Dorset i'll ask him to give me a lesson on those grace notes he does so well, and we'll film it. and there won't be any keytar, bellies or balls to be seen, probably.
It needs to be more than just a keytar, it needs to be a powerful workhouse/Infinite complexity. An instrument that actually MAKES sense to play... but on a deep level... like the rest of instruments that exist in the world today... ingrained into fabric of the universe, a Fact. how does it go far and beyond just a keytar other than impressing the audience... where's the deep seated genius... who can play multiple keytars at once or do things with it no-one has tried before etc.. complex physics where every time you try something new something else happens, not just pre-set sounds... but Sound Engine that goes into the unknown... into the abyss/pit of doom... or rather than looking at keytar, how does it unlock the PLAYER, NVM the keytar... how does it fully emphasize the sounds the player themselves want... like in the game 'Elite Dangerous' how you can keep exploring to the point where even the developers of the game haven't explored everywhere in the map, nor anyone... how does it take the player and audience into the beyond, the multi-verse like they are being strapped in to the unknown... with strap belts ready to launch... and proceed in their hunky spaceship... its less your buying an instrument and more your buying a personality of yourself in that gadget/device/instruments.. how does it unlock YOU in unprecedented levels, unexplored levels.. its not you whos playing the instrument its the instrument whos playing you (your personality through music)... WE are the instrument.. perhaps a sound instrument that can based on brainwave signals interpret those emotions/feelings/sounds/soundwaves and turn it into reality... and with super precision/accuracy... then add reverb to that theme...
You know, all I want from a keytar is midi out, pitch and modulation controls, maybe a few assignable knobs, and MINI KEYS. It's so weird nobody's trying to fill the Yamaha SHS10/KX5 sized gap in the market. Who needs a giant keytar? There should be a tiny cheap one. It doesn't even need onboard sounds, certainly nothing fancy.
@@Swenglish you could try making your own by attaching guitar strap buttons with welding glue to a lightweight 49 Key midi controller with all the controls you want. May I suggest Nectar SE or my preference LX models for a bit more bells & whistles. 🙂
@@MrsDuck I'd want the pitch bend and modulation controls on the neck, to be gripped from underneath (and preferably the octave buttons as well). Most non-keytar keyboards would require major custom modifications for that, including the Nektar ones. Yamaha did come out with the SHS-500 (and SHS-300), but I've heard bad things about it, and they're overpriced for what they are...and the design is definitely a downgrade from the old SHS-10 (of which I've managed to procure one) and SHS-200 models.
So Jack..as soon as I saw this I prepared myself for the funniest thing ever....wasn't disappointed and only 13 seconds in😂 ta! And really well played...even if never again😉
@@jackduxbury1632 It was totally my pleasure😂 he he he he well I don't have time for TV too busy well..so this was ahh laughing as I write lol...keep in it real lol oh no now locked into humor 😂 and watching again, thanks Star😂
I want the black keytar with gold. Perfect for me aesthetically. Also T-rex hands are find by me. Im secure enough to do that. Because i find it functional enough to get into a different position quicker
What technique are you using while “singing” into the vocoder? I have a performance with this badass Keytar/vocoder. Are you actually singing, speaking or just blowing in air? And how much do you have to enunciate
Hey Everyone loves a good laugh and I agree that this instrument is too heavy, but you do a disservice to musicians who are involved in activities other than basic rock. Yes this could be better in the typical keyboard format, but notice that many musicians play this with both hands, can use pre-recorded performances on a flash drive, and can alter various tone/program parameters using the editor on cellphones. For musicians who compose scores for movies or videos the Roland sounds are great. Agreed that the sales pitch has set back the product 20 years, but for someone who values portability, this is a good product. In the end serious studio musicians will want a different Roland keyboard layout.
I hear ya Domenic, really didn't mean any disrespect to any other musicians I can assure you so I'm sorry if I came of that way bud. Just think I let my own horrific experiences bubble up top much!!! Thanks for trying out the video anyways mate.
Hey, thanks for watching, I was using a pedal called a Super Ego Plus from Electro Harmonix that allows me to grab any audio and freeze it - much like a sustain pedal but with a few more options and can work on anything! X
no I have feeling I know what it is, its when you have your hand placed over keyboard in such way that hand layed flat over keys, not in chicken-hen way...
So many insecurities. Couldn't you just tell us all that you love the shit out of this thing? At least you would be honest. I hear because I love the shit out of this thing too.
I have just watched this after 3 years and it is f*cking hilarious! Jack, this is your best video, u gonna have to go some to match this bro! And i is a fan and all that
I can help you with the t-rex hands problem - put your arm OVER the strap when you use both hands instead of going under the strap. That means you can straighten your arm and play naturally.
The white version was being played in some pop group at the end of last Friday's Strictly It Takes Two (series 16 ep 30). I switched it off before it finished.
if i was Roland , i'd be pissed with this review...............but for me , not only was this funny as hell, it points up many truths and realities, ......but also does not do justice to this instrument, it need not be played like a keyboard........it is a KEYTAR !
Man, I went to see King Crimson the other night and they blew my tiny mind, well up for some Progressive Keytar Jams!! Appreciate you giving the video a chance bud and for the comment too, much love x
@@jackduxbury1632 iv been on a bit of a binge of keyboard corner, partly because I want know what keyboards exist and my options, but mostly cuz you are so funny, play really well with your dodgey licks and give your genuine opinion on whatever it is you're reviewing. Good shit jack, top lad
we don't care about how it looks, we care about how it PLAYSSS. although it is a stage instrument so I get that, but that should be an afterthought.. something which looks good but not overdone to the point where you could have spent more time on the instrument sound engine etc... give us some behemoth sounds that dwarf anything that come out of synth, like cyber voice etc.. Cyber sounds, deep space sounds, galactic sounds, out there sounds, sounds that's never been heard before... it needs to be moree than a keytar... but with extreme customizability/music techniques etc... something like a guitar that takes years to master but rewarding when you get it right.. like synth with resonance knobs and EQ and reverb and such...
@@ScoptOriginalkinda going back on what I said actually, load of fun.. but I think Keytars could be fused between professional keyboard with same form factor.. I think it should be fun and professional.. so like a hybrid mindset.. switching from one to the other.. sometimes you can be funny guy on keytar and other times you can play sweet sweet music on keytar.. but it should have that professionality first and then fun.. switching between both modes.. literally and psychologically.. I think it should be all professionality in a fun form factor.. like a mobius strip.. like making a triangle out of squares, or a square out of hexagons. Etc.. rather than being 70% fun and 30% professional, it should be like 100% professional and 100% fun both synergized together.. so it's 200% (out of a large picture, than smaller 100% one).. a 100/100 split thing.. that operates in two ways.. it could be you have two teams working on instrument.. one that's all about the music and customisability, the other focused on artistry and fun of playing instrument.. two worlds in two worlds.. hybrid world's.. to form ONE instrument..
I don't understand your main critique of this product. You say it's awkward to play 2-handed. But it's a keytar. It's not meant to be played 2 handed. If you wanna play piano live, put it down and sit on a bench in front of a stage piano. It's like criticizing a car because it can't fly. It's not meant to.
4 out of 10 for the review man but hell 11 out of 10 for the wit and hilarity. You are seriously funny. go into comedy you have me in stitches. The acid sarcasm was a joy. methinks you are missing your true vocation even tho you are a very decent keys man. maybe you should do an alternative Bill Bailey show..you just could nt go wrong dude. I d pay good money to watch and hear you piss about. " all feels a bit masturbatory " sheer brilliance Jack..someone give him a TV show now!
It’s good piece of kit. Battery life isn’t great though so don’t expect to get more than 3-4 hours. And yeah T rex is always an issue 😂😂😂 If only Roland would make a stripped out controller only version of this …..
All for keytars but why didn't they make it more like an sh-01 but with a better engine, why include keyboard sounds, who is playing key tar and needs accordion or flute. Keep it virtual analog and use a different normal keyboard for your other sound
Apart from the vocodeer, the sounds available struck me as being a lot like my Roland XV-3080, or JV-1010... both of which are pretty similar to the JD-800, apart from just being modules... all of which aren't much different to the Integra, really. "Repackaging the 80s", is pretty much what Roland do, it seems to me.
I needed Ben's Synth Powers to coax more out of this Beast than I did, Im sure he wouod have torn ALL of dem black keys up!! Thanks for watching mate and all the best to ya X
Gooooood I need this baby in my life so bad. If anyone want to donate to the "Ashley gets a keytar fund" I can drop my cashapp lmao! ....halfway kidding.👀🎹
Great sense of humour ... but I'm afraid you are trashing the product ...Roland can't be happy with that😢😂 Enjoyed the comedy ... but I will have to check out other product reviews... hopefully it will be a bit more serious especially for the sale price ...!!!
Seems like a sick piece of gear, the douchey stand-up routine got kinda old when I’m looking for a genuine review but different strokes I guess. T-Rex arms was pretty funny - not gonna be able to unsee that.
The slur on disabled people ‘...and you become a blue badge holder...’ is pretty offensive. Not the first time from this reviewer. He uses the word ‘spaz’ in another video. Is this a cultural thing at Anderson’s?
My bad, I try to introduce the guys behind the camera at the beginning but there's just not enough room in there to get camera shots of the chaps for when I talk to them. Thanks for giving it a go despite my John Travolta impressions! Peace x
@@jackduxbury1632 Just kidding mate. I enjoyed the vid. I remember the Keytar style hand controller add on for the Roland SH101 that came out when I worked at Carlsboro. I think we sold 2.
I think the white model would be better for pale skinned players. With the contrast of your hands with the black colored keytar you look like you’re either trying to scratch your privates one handed or going for a good grope with two hands. Someone who plays this either should have some good dance moves, as you said, or some really good facial expressions. It would definitely be entertaining at a wedding reception.
My bad Brian, I just watched this and I am clutching at a lot of straws in this one. Gonna try tame it down in the future cos blurting out a torrent of Dick jokes certainly isn't what I wanna put out there. Thanks for trying to watch it anyways bud X
Had decided to stay off buying gear this year, but because of this I will most likely fail. Sorry to say you're wrong, but this is the coolest gear known to mankind.
As a guitarist if I ever wanted to play keys for a song or two live I'd so use this thing.
I want a double neck one of those
A dual manual, rather?
Once I disabled the IFX and built-in delay using the app I plugged mine into the Boss Me-80 and I'm getting some incredibly nice sounds out of it.

Yes a decent key bed, responsive keys. Good to use with a DAW. Full fletched synth.
Nice. I want one.
This will work well with my MOOG Liberation, Alesis Vortex, and my psychosis.
ALL BLACK KEYS!!

Ive been waiting for this video for weeks! As high class as always!
The addition of the Vocoder makes this cool, nice video I almost want one! 🤘
That bit about naked men was amazing, please never change, Jack
can u do pedals on the keytar , like wah and talkbox on it if so can u do a demo vid on it

Enjoyed the comedy ...
but I will have to check out other product reviews... hopefully it will be a bit more serious especially for the sale price ...!!!
A thousand patches, and two buttons to select them...
This was an awful video for an excellent instrument.
Jarrod my man, what plonka I am, never thought of that!! Thanks man X
I agree
+1
12:11 laughed my ass off
Good work the video. That little knobs in the arm look stupid and break the dynamics of performance
Oh look, they listened and made a jdxi with full size keys! Except one problem.....🤣
Seems like a sick piece of gear, the douchey stand-up routine got kinda old when I’m looking for a genuine review but different strokes I guess. T-Rex arms was pretty funny - not gonna be able to unsee that.
The slur on disabled people ‘...and you become a blue badge holder...’ is pretty offensive. Not the first time from this reviewer. He uses the word ‘spaz’ in another video. Is this a cultural thing at Anderson’s?
jack, thanks for the lols
Thanks to you for even sitting through a minute of this my man. Appreciate your support my Organ Brutha X
Droni Braxton band name dibs
Drony Bennett! ;) Thanks for watching the vid bud X
Jack Duxbury Droneuine.
Lmaooooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Coming to a bargain bin near you. What the fuck are Roland doing these days?! 🤔🙈
Way too huge. A keytar is one of the few products that mini-keys actually make sense.
Agree. Some of us, unlike @Jack Duxbury, only need a “minitaur” to cover our bits. :)
Gold and white = Elvis?? Mm
True Dat X
Stop pointing! We can't see what you're pointing at!
My bad, I try to introduce the guys behind the camera at the beginning but there's just not enough room in there to get camera shots of the chaps for when I talk to them. Thanks for giving it a go despite my John Travolta impressions! Peace x
@@jackduxbury1632 Just kidding mate. I enjoyed the vid. I remember the Keytar style hand controller add on for the Roland SH101 that came out when I worked at Carlsboro. I think we sold 2.
Ha, 2, the bountiful market demographic that is the Keytarist!! Thanks again bud X
I cried laughing
teach me the chords to senorita
Might try squeeze a vid on that next time I'm in! X
I think the white model would be better for pale skinned players. With the contrast of your hands with the black colored keytar you look like you’re either trying to scratch your privates one handed or going for a good grope with two hands. Someone who plays this either should have some good dance moves, as you said, or some really good facial expressions. It would definitely be entertaining at a wedding reception.
Steph Curry can play Keytar??!!
How many dumb sex and masturbation jokes can we cram into a demo video? This man begs the question!
My bad Brian, I just watched this and I am clutching at a lot of straws in this one. Gonna try tame it down in the future cos blurting out a torrent of Dick jokes certainly isn't what I wanna put out there. Thanks for trying to watch it anyways bud X
