Yamaha P225 Digital Piano Buyers Guide - Lots Of Playing Demos!

[@stantonkramer2986]

There are hidden features that most don't present in their demonstrations. 1) You can change the touch, which changes the sound brightness and volume. 2) There is a residual sound of resultant harmonics just like an acoustic piano. Want to check? Gently hold down any key without making a sound from it and play octaves below and above that note. When you release those octave notes you will hear a residual ring. 3). The keys don't have to return fully to the upright position to play subsequent notes. This adds so much to the touch. 4) With the LP-1 3 pedal system the middle pedal actually works and the right pedal can be "half pedaled". There is only one "con" that I can think of and mention. The shorter keys make it a bit harder when you get away from the hearts of the keys. The touch gets heavier as you get near the body of the instrument. If you're a professional it may be annoying but can be overcome. If you're an new learner you probably won't notice it much until you start invoking "touch" in your playing. I previously had a P-125 and find the 225's sound more refined and also had a Williams Allegro III, and the 225 is a huge step up from that, though the Williams was a great bargain for a first time digital piano purchase for a new learner.

[@terencemukwamba8946]

The piano sounds truly beautiful. I need help identifying the title of the piece he played to demonstrate the grand piano, as it's stuck in my head and so captivating.

Though choice between the Yamaha p-225 and the Kawai es120.. both seem great.

[@richardtoll958]

Another great demo from Tony. What is the film score played with piano / strings?

[@notthename1]

It is the theme from Ice Castles.

If you had to choose between this and the Casio PX-S5000 which one would you get?

[@mfurman]

PX-S5000 is 50% more expensive. It does not have Digital Audio Interface and its action is bouncy.

Too late, I bought the P225...

[@jagjiwanram2206]

[@stevebarker6510]

[@CIRTA213]

P225 or Casio 7000?

[@elazar1333]

Any conclusion?

[@martinebeeck9898]

What's the point in having an instrument with an app that's not Android compatible?
