Update here. I gone with the Yamaha p45. It's been 2 years now. Still like new. No click sound nothing. Just that when recording with my phone it has the key plastic pressing sound which is normal. Other than that. All works perfect. And also 1 thing I didn't like is the speaker the quality isn't that good it's just fine. But the game.changer come. When you plug in headphones. And I do.mean expensive audiophile headphones. It sounds so rich. And warm. If you plug in cheap headphones it sound worse than the speaker. If you plug in good headphones. It sounds amazing. Overall it's well worth purchase. And also the roland at that time was way more expensive and literally over budget.

[@M7MD-]

I am trying to make a decision. The Roland features sound more appealing to me and I think the bluetooth will help me learn faster. However, it is $156 more expensive than the Yamaha. I still can’t make my mind.

[@calvinyip364]

@@M7MD- well I never seen a Roland in real life. But all I can say is. The sound from the Yamaha speaker is fine. Decent . Can fill a room no problem. The build is solid . Everything is still good but. If you want awesome sound quality u need to have a good headphone plug it into the Yamaha. You will be surprise how much the sound changed. It did for me I use the speakers it didn't sound that great but is ok. Than I swap to headphones it even sound more crappy than the speaker than I swap to a decent like Ath m40x , shp 9500 . Not gaming headphone omg. The sound literally boom. Out of this world. And I can tell the difference between cheap and expensive or decent headphones. No joke. My Yamaha still as good as new. Before you buy go see the review for me I did check up on Roland. Yes they sound good on speaker from KZbin videos and the Bluetooth is nice and all but. Most of them even on forum I seen many and many of them complaining about key lose , or some other problem with the device after few months of use or 1 to 2 year. And my Yamaha still holding up nicely. So choose wisely. Fixing these stuff cost alot of money. Just saying . As goes for the Yamaha at least this model I hardly or even never see problems with it. As for Roland I did though.

[@zjaeger1800]

@@Peekcasso Hey mate, maybe you could help me out or give me advice. As you've already tested the Roland fp10 within a store and are saying that the sound of it is just fuller and stronger, I can absolutely NOT tell the same about my FP30X. The FP30x has a better speaker system and a better sound engine than the FP10, so I'm therefore very confused. Am I doing smth. wrong? The sound of its in-build speakers are just 'average', there is no fullness or authenticity to hear. So I thought ok, must be the build-in speakers itself. I've connected my FP30x to my 2.1 sound speaker system, which is a high quality sound system - but still: the sound the Roland is producing through my external speakers are still bad and at best average. There is still none of the fullness, you can hear in this video by the Roland FP10. Why is that? Could it be, that the sound is produced and delivered much differently if its connected to a audio-interface? How is this guy able to produce so crystal clear sound of those low budget epianos?

Big thanks for this review. I went to the shop and tested myself the Yamaha P45, Yamaha P125, Roland FP 10 & Roland FP 30. I decided to buy the Roland FP10 for some reason. Roland feels more nicer on the keys really feels like a piano. Roland sound is better in terms of treble and bass feels more piano to me. Yamaha sustain is too much for me. Roland sustain feels better and accurate in my opinion only. Thanks again! Each individual has each own preference. I used to be a Yamaha fan ever since but this time Roland feels and sounds better.

How about the clicking noise of the keys? For some reason, none of the reviewers dont mentions this misunderstanding. After a week of using the FP-10, the keys start to click. This is due to the mechanics of the keyboard and the using of grease under the keys. The problem is very common, there are many discussions on Reddit about this. Owned FP10, the key click problem was confirmed. Loved this instrument, but this clicking issue is really disappointing. Roland needs fp10 quality control.

Hi can I make a suggestion. When you're doing a review, can you also record the actual sound of both units of their built-in speakers because like me, that's a deal breaker. Though these 2 have both 12 watts speakers, for sure sound quality is different. Sometimes the sound they produce on a computer recordings is not exactly how they sound through the built in speakers, if that makes sense. Thank you.

FP-10 has great feel and love the weightedness but unfortunately develops clicking noises very quickly with the PHA4 action. Not happy with mine because of this.

I tried both and I feel like FP10 is very plasticky and clicky. Also the dynamic range seemed much smaller. I had to tap the keys incredibly lightly to get a quiet tone and mash them very hard to get louder. Yamaha felt more responsive.

[@vccranker]

@@Bec888B Bummer and sorry to hear. I purchased an FP-10 and a week or so into it, discovered the right most 16 or 17 keys are always sustained. Tried factory reset. No firmware upgrade available. I was able to return it in time and am trying the P-45 and like the way the keys don't feel as weighted. I hear that the keys on real grand pianos are generally not as firm as those on an upright acoustic. So perhaps in a way, the lesser weighted keys on the P-45, more closely resemble an actual grand piano? Kind of ironic.

How about key’s velocity/dynamics resolution? As far as I know, P45 has only 3 degrees - silent, moderate and loud... and Roland? Sounds better than yamaha in this movie, but is this only my impression?

[@محمدالخلفي-ط1ل]

Yamaha better sound

[@Duskofoolacile7]

I have the P45. You can change the settings for the touch sensitivity, from not responsive at all to widely responsive.

[@karolptak371]

@@Duskofoolacile7 Ah, thanks, that's right. Too many things hidden under func key + note keys. Worth printing out the page from instruction manual where these keys are mentioned. One page, easy to be laminated.

I originally would like to buy fp30 but I think that fp10 just enough for my needs after watching this video😄

[@oscarivan6684]

Does anyone know what song this is starting at 1:42

[@kotliarnicolas4090]

the depth of Yamaha´s sound is far superior IMO

[@timandmel777]

The default sound of the Roland is sampled from Steinway concert grand while Yamaha uses their own GFX concert grand. The sound difference is really just preference. They are both digital. To say that one sounds more digital than the other is not correct but rather one sounds more natural, but unless you are comparing it to the original and know what the original sounded like, one cannot comment on how natural it sounds.

[@jeanlucchapelon]

Thanks You bring interesting things : the fact that Roland -Steinway and Yamaha -Yamaha !!

Other than a metronome is there a function where I could get some drum beats in either of the keyboards using the app? Thanks

[@freedomgunsandliberty]

Honestly I feel the yamaha sounds better. The Roland sounds muddy and too many notes overlap. I was looking into which one to buy and I'm going with the yamaha. It sounds crisper and brighter. I love the sound of real grand pianos but if we can clean up the muddy sounds of the real thing with digital technology, then why not? Thanks for the review.

[@pauloleoncompositor]

hello, how are you recording the sound of the Rolandfp10? or how are you amplifying?

[@ВкусныйЧай-к3ъ]

I've found FP-10's sound more "blurry" than Yamaha. Yamaha's sound is more synthetic and legible, imo.

[@averageanon007]

4:00 looks the exact opposite, yamaha sounds a bit more blurry than the fp10

[@rangerseries]

The Roland fp10 doesn’t sound so good in the video because it has no line-outs, so they couldn’t record it as well as they could with the Yamaha p45. But really in person the fp10 sounds much more authentic and alive than the p45.

[@islandtony5009]

The P45 doesnt have line outs either - the p125 does

[@oleksakostenko4148]

What kind of adapter do you use to connect fp 10 to external speakers?

[@Harshpenny]

Do you sacrifice sound quality using an adapter with the headphone out jack compared to a dedicated speaker output?

Nah. Not if u have a good pair of headphones and a DAC

Hi! Good day! I was about to purchase Roland FP 10 but when I am about to connect it to my macbook, it doesn't recognize the FP 10 as a midi controller/instrument for my Digital Audio Workstation (Garageband). It is supposed to automatically recognize the instrument like any other midi keyboards unless Roland FP 10 does not support Midi functions for DAW? Can anyone help? Thank you so much!

[@thomaswindfeld728]

how do they work as a USB mother keyboard hooked up to a computer?

[@HoangHuynh]

yes they both would work

P45 right now at $499 (being discontinued and replaced by P145 but still available).. vs FP10 at $849.99

[@vikamustafina6112]

I have bought Roland for musicschool. My opinion the sound in Roland is brighter, but one minus is that keys clatter louder. But for musicschool Roland is enough.

Can the fp10 connect to a bluethooth headphone? What size it the headphone jack?

You could have had my yamaha grand for nothing it was only £100.000 but the boy at the top 5 dollar ear phones made rock jam 88 key piano sound way much better its was barry manilow who is sponsored by yamaha, I phoned him sent him a voucher for the earphones, he's starting to use rock jam, could it magic sounds magic, but what would the man who was the top student in his music school know, a lot of people don't know this, but manilow has fund for school of music in America, he used all money for meet and greet yamaha let him have instruments at cost, he donates to a lot of schools in the 🇺🇸 USA, he's very private no a lot know that, I reckon rock jam will be new sponser

[@gabrielmarkin5791]

Which keys have bigerst dynamic range? I want to use it like a midi keyboard, but dont know which ones to choose

[@Timzart7]

The Roland has a more advanced sound engine, and a really great dynamic range, soft to loud, depending on how the key is touched. It also uses a technology that interpolates the key strike, so it isn't sounding at a specific stepped volume level, but instead has the full dynamic range of an acoustic piano. It sounds more piano-like and beautiful than any midi piano font I've tried, whether modeled (Pianoteq) or sampled, since Roland developed a proprietary combination of the two. But the dynamic range when using MIDI should be the same, very good. The more you read about it, the more it seems almost unbelievable how well it works. When I got it, I was almost glad I didn't have $4000 to spend on a more expensive digital piano, because I love everything about this one. Even though I use MIDI, it's still nice to be able to turn on the keyboard and have the piano sound be so good, for when I just want to play the piano.

[@lucifergames4295]

Herr in india p45 is being sold at ₹35000 (500$) and fp10 is being sold at ₹48000 (630$)... Do you think i should pay those extra 130$ usd and buy roland???

[@SamadhanGuldagde]

FP10 was unnecessarily key tightness and more hard than acoustic piano. The keys push return back and you will get slow response which I feel very bad while playing. Hope p45b has a good response and hammer action waiting for my order.

[@arvistaakm8445]

How is it ? Pls I want to chose but I’m confused between these two pianos 🙏🏽
