I've seen another person doing a review on this exact same device but his piano sounds horrible compared to yours. Did you connect this to an external speaker when you created this KZbin video that's why it sounds great? And BTW, the link you provided only directs me to 'Piano Store' in Shopee but I couldn't find it listed there.

[@fratvurur3683]

Didnt find piano on vid. Please tell us the brand

[@PianoMan-hx3ev]

Jeremy, just came across this right now!! www.google.com/amp/s/www.musicradar.com/amp/news/casio-px-s1100-digital-piano

[@dulistanheman]

I've been having idea to make such piano (just dreaming) 😅 I really like though. Good review Jeremy 👍🏼

[@rahamathnisha6914]

I want this from you for my birthday gift

[@marielee4643]

The foldable keyboard pianos are a lifesaver. Granted they are not of the same quality as Yamaha or Kawai keyboards in terms of key responsiveness, but they help me a lot for late night practice when I need to practise my Grade 8 songs. I do have an old entry level acoustic piano at home, but my neighbors have sensitive ears so the only times I can play the acoustic piano is during my offdays in the afternoon. ( I suppose they don't want to hear the same Mozart concerto over a 100 times in 2 months.)

[@jakubknade3778]

aren't headphones are lifesaver in such situations? they also provide good quality and allow you to still use your fav piano...

[@mthanhgfd]

​@@jakubknade3778 you cant plug your headphone in an acoustic piano...

[@ilingwang1168]

I wish Yamaha, Casio or Roland come out with something like this. I’ve asked about an 88 weighted keys piano at the Namm Show all the time. I would buy one in a heart beat from any of the brand name makers.

[@james2578]

no u wouldnt. u would always find an excuse.

[@soulonsoul8035]

Agreed

[@aBachwardsfellow]

​@@firstnameIastname I agree - I'd love to have a 49-key (4 octave) version of the Yamaha P125 -- just enough to play 2 octaves of scales, arpeggios and chords would be great. A 56-key or 61-key version would be ok too (I play organ - 61 keys is all I need).

[@T.T.64]

For normal player 61keys should be enough 😊

[@mautse7120]

@@T.T.64no, not at all!

[@Juliaflo]

In my most humble opinion, the lack of portability is one of the reasons people are not too enthusiastic about piano lessons. Something like this may suit me when and if I travel away from home. I even think it comes in handy for small gigs or at-home sing-alongs.

[@bro_leo]

To me it's sound pretty good. I am not a piano player, but I am thinking want to play it for fun, maybe I can take this one as consideration rather than buying too much expensive one.

[@claigraciaaguire942]

Was able to find one and bought it today for my 13yr old kid. Watching your video helped a lot. Thanks much! 😉

[@henokh.c]

Is it good?

[@beverleysmith133]

Just got one. I have a very nice digital keyboard, too heavy to transport, and bolted to a stand. I got this because I needed something to put in my trunk and take with me on the road to continue practicing.

[@markadairofficial]

I gig on guitar/vocals about 8 times a week, and I've always been tempted to bring a piano for some gigs, too, to switch it up. This might be perfect via USB/laptop for better sounds.

[@yudipitre5720]

I would love one , I went on Amazon and there are several ones its confusing. Which one is it?

[@hcb3636]

Surprising #1: "Semi-weighted!" #2: It looked soooo easy when you lifted the bag it seemed to me like nothing was inside. Interesting: It looked heavily inspired by those Casio CTs in recent years.

[@vincentmaloney5835]

It's not semi-weighted action at all. The springs are installed under the keys. That's how I feel it. The only advantage of the folding keyboard is portability. Yes, it's good for practicing on the go, but it's not good for serious playing.

[@udiorockmeamadeus]

Arturia collection V 38 vintage synths $300, five days left..

[@vito_keys]

The sound is an EXACT COPY of Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth, which you'll hear while playing midi song on a computer :D

[@DJIncendration]

I was just about to comment that!

[@theiammike123]

yes. it probably uses the same basic midi sound chip as the windows gs.

[@alvarodopsr620]

Yeah, copy of Roland SC-55 and other Roland products of mid-1990's.

[@MrIcelander]

So does Quicktime on the Mac when used to play midi files. It's basically the original GM Standard sound set from Roland. The original Roland E-series (Arrangers) have that same sound too, more or less.

[@lindahiggins1250]

Yes My mam got me a new Foldup piano for my Christmas present this year I cannot wait to open my piano box on Christmas morning so excited with 88 keys with Asus model and we got it online it is very handy

[@mrs.peggysmith6958]

Not sure why I can’t find the answer to the question being asked repeatedly. Which make and model is the keyboard in the video? The link Provided is for multiple hinge folding piano. I like the size and sound of the one you are playing. Thanks in advance!! 🙌🏼

[@JohnClarkMatthews]

A very good review. I just need something to practice with - even when I'm camping in the mountains or where ever. This will work fine.

[@JeremySee]

Glad it was helpful!

[@nflux20]

Hey! This is exactly why I wanted to get mine! When I go camping I still want something to practice with. How is yours holding up now?

[@johnconklin]

Jeremy, thank you for your great info on this foldable keyboard. My only issue with this is the weight. I travel internationally, and would prefer something lighter. Thank you for taking time to review this.

[@Marbles35]

You have, my man, finally opened up my worl to a DAW. In forever debt to you.

[@danieldougan269]

I know it's no replacement for my DGX-650, but I've heard others say these are all totally unusable. It's nice to see a review down the middle. When I start traveling again, I would love to have something portable to take with me. This might not be portable enough though...maybe a small MIDI controller would be a better option. The built-in sounds are not great, but you can always rectify that with MIDI plugins and better headphones / speakers.

[@diarykeeper]

Useing this without end device is not the main point anyhow. Hook it up to iOS\Android or a PC and it works out. Some people are always on the move, this thing is perfect for that.

[@kristynaha5478]

How can i connect it to pc? Like if i want to use seepiano

[@hallo4651]

@@kristynaha5478 bluetooth or usb cable

[@mickehog76]

Amazing :). Great to have with you when you need to travel light. Don't try to do that with your unfolded piano 😂. You will only be able to fold it once 😂.

[@JeremySee]

😂

[@LetBBB6345789]

As far as I understand, sound can be adapted to sound more like a real piano when using it with some piano app processing the sound to an external speaker.

[@neo_7035]

No that's not true

[@carloslopez4866]

U're Right

[@musicmanifested4558]

Great review Jeremy. That's a cute foldable digital piano! It's a good thing that it is powered by a USB adapter and can be used as a midi controller as well. Didn't expect it to have a key lighting feature. 😉

[@ilingwang1168]

Have you hooked this up to a speaker/pa with EQ? To make the piano sound more realistic?

[@hwakyungseo4832]

I bought same one Today ! When I play the piano , the red dot 🔴 light appears under the key! How can I turn off! Do you know?

[@neo_7035]

Hey how is it after using it for 3 month i want to buy the same

What’s the model of this keyboard ? The links sent me to different models

​@@neo_7035Hey, sorry to bother u, but did u buy it? Can u please tell me if it still works, im really scared of it breakin after like a month 😭

Hi, how do you add a new sound for its sound library? and how to reduce rhythm speed, please?

[@anndelaplus8712]

I see other piano on the link description, very different than the video, what's the name aand edition of this piano

[@thepianoplayer416]

Being portable means you can take it on a flight as a carry on bag. Definitely don't belong with the other checked luggage since the bag is soft. The quality is more acceptable than the Folding Piano 88 from Carry-on (MidiPlus) that folds into 4 pieces.

[@sinslap_]

U think it’s a lot better quality than the Carry on 88 4 piece I’ve been wanting to buy one can’t figure out which one yet

[@asmoe9011]

Exactly the same as mine which I bought Onboard! Very suitable for travellers like me for practice although the quality is not the best!

[@davesaunders7457]

I was waiting for you to review this piano, because I really rate your reviews. So thanks Jeremy; it was really helpful 😊

[@sherellmartin1778]

I bought this keyboard for church and the middle C key has popped up where the keyboard folds. Amazon is putting me through a lot to get to this seller to get a replacement. It sucks! The mic input doesn't work.

[@snowleonam9766]

can i get the same thing on amazon with good recommend because there a lot of bad reviews

[@wongciqian]

Does it have transpose function?

[@kuyajosephtutorials9709]

With one knob to do all the setting, it takes time just to change voice. Nice piano sound.

[@Surannhealz]

Thanks 🙏 I bought a used Ingbell so it had no instructions. I thought mine was broken because it wouldn’t turn with USB-C to USB-C cable, figured out you MUST use USB-A to USB-C. I was mostly wondering if the USB port also could be used for data in some way…good to know it supports MIDI. I didn’t know it potentially has a rechargeable battery in it. I will have to see if my particular brand has one.

[@veganflatearth790]

Is there an option to change the hertz? I prefer tuning the key of A to 432 hz instead of 440 hz.

[@joemyt3287]

On my experience on using it, the sound quality is a little Blurry on acoustic mode than the sound i heard on his demonstration.. any recomendation to have a bette sound quality?

[@TBb____]

So to be clear, I can just hit the on button and it works until the rechargeable battery runs down?

[@AntonioHdez]

Hi Jeremy, the big manufacturers should build a piano with 49 keys and an octave, a contained size, with small speakers, good sounds, a midi option and some knobs and sliders that allow it to be used as a controller, sustain pedal, a quality key bed, USB power. Something similar to the Yamaha Reface but with a full size keyboard and more keys (49). It would be great for traveling and practicing in bed or on the couch. 78cm in length and 5kg should be the max. I think there is nothing on the market that meets that in any price range. Something like the midi controller Arturia KeyLab 49 or Komplete Kontrol S49, but autonomous, with the addition of good sounds and speakers would be almost perfect, but it doesn't exist.

[@Mj-Sanga]

There are 49 and 61 key foldable pianos. I am getting a 61 key foldable soon from a different brand.

[@keyhoarder]

yeah 49 keys are the very good compromise

[@EmiPianoMX]

maybe the cts-300 comes close, but it is 61 keys. It weighs 3 kg.

[@KezDPianist]

Hi Jeremy, thank you so much for this video. Compared with Yamaha p-45, is the vangoa’s quality can compete in terms of touch and sound? For classical piano learning at dorms, is the vangoa still applicable? Thank you

[@jawshua100]

I use this to practice when travelling . It is not a hammer or weighted type and don't expect the sound to be as good as grand or other good brand piano.. the keys are bouncy but I love it because I can still practice PCs that I love while travelling....

[@zeinebworld4397]

Hello, Are the keys very light like an org And the distance is shorter between the keys also like an org ? Or is it just like a piano keyboard? Thanks

[@ThePianoJourneyMusic]

That is a smart design. We're impressed...

Is there a hammer grade weighted folding digital piano? That only requires additional 3kg

[@pchabanowich]

You are a marvel, Jeremy. This is a brilliant demo. Thank you for detailing its capacities. Zeus! Being a boomer, this is like magic. Carry a piano???? Sure, sure. Love the portability - who doesn't know the compromises? It feels like I would like more sensitivity (full weighted), but it is one of the compromises one considers. How is it as a composer's tool?

[@DrCasper.]

Hey, i wanto order roland fp 10 for my kids, and i honestly dont have any idea about pianos. So my question is, can i connect wireless bluetooth headphones or sony link buds s or jabra elite 7 active earbuds so that they can play via earbuds and not make noise all the time? Or no?

[@i.bopjuanis676]

[@aura.maelstrom]

could I use this also as a midi keyboard with my daw eventually running my VST instruments and better piano sound with speakers? I eventually need something I can take away with me on the plane when going away for both composing and practice, and yes I have real nice midi controllers but sometimes I need to check more with composing for piano. and need that 88 keys but once that can fly with me on the plane lol

[@shyny6566]

I have this keyboard and I've been trying for so long to record audio into my phone. How do I record the keyboard sound to my phone??? I've searched on youtube but most of them use those square cables I don't get it. The midi is like a usb C so do i have to find like a cable with a double type C on the end or something. I've bought them but it still doesn't work Im bad at cables sorry
