www.achamilton.... We thought we should do a quick video comparison of the Korg PA900 and Roland BK-9. This is just a small example of similar styles and sounds in the instruments. Which would you prefer?

They are both good Synths in different ways and in my opinion they can not compete with each other. However I feel this video favours the Korg Synth because the demonstrator is playing the Roland BK9 not as well as the Korg PA 9000. I think this video is designed to show the Roland BK9 in a bad light and the Korg PA900 in the good light but it is not any better than the Roland BK9 and neither is the Roland BK9 better than The Korg PA900. this is another way to get people fighting and arguing on KZbin.

Go for the Tyros or the PSR S950 that is sound quality and real percussion styles.

Veronica McCarrison Hi!!! I agree in almost but, they are not synths! PA600 is a very complete PRO leve ARRANGER!! and the BK9 is an arranger as well.. as a matter of fact Roland released their EM series for the arrangers segment.. but PA series from Korg overpasses them. The last BKseries stand for Pro Arrangers with some digital synth caractheristics but, they are arrangers. "Arranger" stands for a multi task keyboard which is designed to make you the "one man band" , the synths are keyboards which make you CREATE and manipulated the configuration and construction of sounds (samples, tones)and the Workstations are designed to make a real PRO work in altering sounds, digging deeper in the different configutations, to program and develop music production..including recording, accompaingments, secuencing, and more advanced programming language. I consider, the PA series over the best arranging pro level purposes,in fact, workstations like Kronos are superior in almost any feature coz of the 9 differente sound engines included into that fine board. Now, the touch, feel of PAseries is not remarkable..just fine, in the Kronos is far better..but not the best.. there are out there the PA series designed in Italy: Pa3x and the Pa3xLe they are "fine biscuits" ;) I hope to have helped... Greetings!

I have a BK9 and this comparison in my opinion does NOT do the BK9 any favours, I did have a PA600 but much prefer the BK9. I agree with pcuimac the backing styles are lower than the PA900, mine sounds so much better than these demos, the problem is the BK9's OTS's could be a lot better, and that's probably why most think the PA900 sounds better.

Thank you for your comment. We are completely aware of all this and everything was calibrated correctly for this video on the product. It boils down to the simple fact that some keyboards just have a sound that is more dynamic than others. Those spikier waveforms stop the overall sound from being quite as loud as other products. This is not necessarily a bad thing as it allows for greater expression as a player.

I have the bk9 and korg pa3x, I compared and played both I like the korg better in general except for the weight because bk9 is like made of plastic but the bracket and the screws inside that holds the keys and the other parts are metal of course, correct me if I am wrong, because I opened it at the back and I saw it. korg is easy to use, this is my own opinion. dual mp3 players you can play at the same time and sounds better than bk9, The Harmonizer, and all the buttons for the individual sound if you want to turn it on and off are handy. microphone sounds better than bk9. the bass sound of the korg is more realistic when i play the style compared to the bk9. again this is my opinion. but I keep them both for some other reasons.

The Roland has much better style to song representation. I played my way by sinatra using their pe programed accompaniment and I was blown away. Same went for price tag by Jessie J. The backing styles are spot on. So...Roland please
@pcuimac11 жыл бұрын
The backing styles of the Roland are at least at -6dB compared to the PA900. No wonder it sounds not as good as the PA. I did the same mistake when I compared my Fantom G with a M3. I forgot to reset the gain poti in my mixer and wondered why the Fantom G sounded 'thin'. You have to calibrate both to the same dB Level for backing track and piano/lead sound.

In the last segment, the synth-sounding guitar on the Roland was totally out of place with the other instruments. There were three 'comparisons' done where a sax was the voice. We know Korg has a good sax -- it seems to have breathy sounds layered with the sax sound -- the Roland may have this but we didn't hear it. Is there no flute voice on the Roland? We didn't hear any. I think Veronica is right -- I don't think the Roland was played as well as the Korg in this video. The piano on the Roland was great, as expected.

This demonstration is clearly rigged to make the Korg appear better. The large difference in sound levels between the two keyboards is either an amateurish set-up by the demonstrator or a willful attempt to favor the Korg. Disclaimer: I am not yet an owner of either. I am about to buy an arranger and I favor the Korg sound and ease of use but I prefer 76 keys on the Roland. Appearance wise I do not like the ghastly military colors of the Korg (they should copy their colors as per the Pa 4X) and the flashing lights on the Roland are a health hazard - they would trigger an epileptic seizure.

Hi! You wrote: "We thought we should do a quick video comparison of the Korg PA900 and Roland BK-9." So I thought you were doing this "quick" with no calibration. What many people don´t recognize is that sounds with a continous spectrum can transport more energy than something like a triangle wave. The impression a keyboard makes depends very much on the used sounds. Roland and Korg products sound both very impressive!

BK9 is bad at user-interface. You can see, the pannel is black, and all botton and Switchs are black too. I've entered a music store and I can not see button on the keyboard properly. PA900 styles play now more dynamic and live (not compare to Yamaha S950 Styles, Yamaha still hold position 1st at Style) than BK does. Except BK9 Grand Piano is just great for an Arranger

I use PA 900, and for me it's a powerhouse. The default patches are very bad and some of the programmed tones too. But do some tweaking and no other keyboard will come up to its level. The Korg's are powerhouse if you are interested in sound programming. BTW, the output from its speakers is not good. Connect it to an amp and it really becomes a beast.

I think it should not make a show of keyboards so lightly, at their convenience. I as a client prefer a more professional show, where you can appreciate the voices and styles of the keyboard in a more real way. for example, if I'm going to listen to a saxophone, then you should see a minimum actual interprtación of a saxophonist, and not a keyboard sounding saxophone
