Roland GO PIANO review - Best digital piano for beginners?

[@wallaceporch1418]

I’ve never played music before. I’m teaching myself how to read music. This seems like what I need. Thanks Woody

[@ajmorning1]

A very thorough and honest review. It has helped considerably in making my purchase choice.

[@PhotoAndersHald]

Excellent video. Don't play myself, but my twelve year old spends hours on a toystore keyboard. This Christmas, in isolation, an upgrade is in order. Wonderful input and recommendations.

[@ndguardian]

Just got one of these and I love it. I have a Yamaha P45 as well, but it's in the bedroom so practicing while my SO is in bed wouldn't be ideal. Even with headphones, having a light on wouldn't be good for her sleep. I can set this up in another room easily to practice on it in those circumstances, or I can easily bring it out on the balcony to practice on a nice day.

[@caleidoscopioliterario9851]

Thank you very much! I think this is the only youtube channel that presented the list of go piano timbres-tones simultaneously with the musical performances. Congratulations!

[@SaiDinesh752]

The way you're holding that keyboard is urging me to buy one😍😍😍

[@divinitylain7790]

usually when i'm looking for a video review about something i want, i just skip skip and skipped to the part where i do need to know of but this video made me watch it entirely from the start to the end because his voice and the points (about the good and bad, should i buy it or not) were made so structured it doesn't get to the point of boring to me. from each second of this video review, everything is quite useful and clearly explain what i need to know. thank you

Looks like a decent little keyboard. I’ve always been a fan of Roland products. And their digital pianos are amazing!

[@kirkwilliams2127]

I agree on the screen. I’d probably tape it over or add some kind of filter on top. I think once you learn what is what there is no need for the screen.

[@kirkwilliams2127]

What a perfect travel keyboard. Buying one soon. I like the keys are the same as my full size Akai

[@hfe1833]

one thing I like it...its minimalist in design.perfect for beginners like me,not intimidate from lot of controls

[@anonymike8280]

The Roland Go is still out there and it is a nice option. Much of the market information and the prices have been superseded. The Roland FP-10 has been replaced by the Roland FP-30X. These 61-key keyboards are called arranger keyboards and they are called that for a reason. They are very useful for someone who wants to a portable keyboard to use to arrange music on. I am not in any way advanced as an instrumentalist, or even able to play anything at a performance level, but I do know how to work out chord progressions and I am doing some songwriting. I got a Casio CT-200, which is a lower level of arranger keyboard, to take to group vocal class at the senior center. I can see the value of a small portable keyboard to someone who is doing songwriting or arranging. I would say, if possible, try to start a beginner on 88 keys. The 61-key (and 54-key) keyboards are strictly for playing and arranging pop music. Worse yet, there just isn't the quantity of training materials available for the smaller keyboards. I think what I am saying is that the smaller keyboard are really for someone who has at least some musical development already, be it voice or some other instrument.

[@Sourcecode01]

Excellent review, thinking of buying this to get back into playing again.

[@pianoallovertheplace955]

I have it in use every day. I like it espcecially at distant locations.

Great video and demo, covered everything. As someone getting back to the piano after many years I'm after a 61 key and deciding between Roland, Yamaha and the Casio. Wish all demo's were as good as this. Thanks. 👍

[@questony]

Really good video! I'm looking for my first digital piano and got good tips and info from this. Thank you! 😊

[@sammiddleton3437]

Great review that really encouraged me to go buy one of these. Having moved into my own (rather small) apartment, I was missing the family piano and needed something both affordable and compact. This is by far the best compact keyboard in this price range. The keys feel lovely and don't have that cheap/plastic feel that so many of the other keyboard brands have, and while the keys aren't weighted or hammer-actioned, they certainly feel "heavier" and more authentic than most keyboards. The only downside, and as expected with such a small instrument, the speaker quality isn't the best. However, through headphones the different voices (particularly the Concert Grand and European Pianoforte) sound wonderful.

[@danodlenar9730]

The keys feel good then? I'm thinking about buying it (first digital piano/keyboard ever, i want to learn)

[@adilsonlc]

What a great review. Thanks for recording it. Cheers from down under.

[@geekindakitchen]

I think you left out the GO:Keys to be honest, can I ask do you prefer the GO:Keys or GO:Piano or you haven't had a chance to play with the GO:Keys?

[@Beatboxerskills]

the keys seems more like a toy than a real piano, you got more sounds but they dont sound as good in my opinion.

If you have a Macintosh, you could get GarageBand and use an M-Audio keystation 61es or a 88es. That’s what I learned on. (GarageBand is free for those who didn’t know.)

[@Roboprogs]

Or an iPad or even iPhone, SE or other. Bluetooth MIDI on this unit sounds convenient, though. Would not touch b/t audio though.

[@skaposzczet]

I use it as a portable piano that I can take with me on vacation or to another room. It runs long on batteries and it is great to play to some KZbin videos by connecting audio to piano speakers trough Bluetooth.

[@WoodyPianoShack]

cool, yes, that's the use case where it really shines!

[@bandida7490]

Thank you for taking the time to make this review. I think this keyboard might be the right one for me!

It’s expensive for that kind of keyboard. But it sounds much nicer than my $120 Casio.

I loved your review! Thank you very much! I am getting this one just because I am a total beginner, and because I would like to carry it while traveling. Thank you very much!

[@crimsun7186]

I currently have a CASIO CDP-220R, which I also use as a MIDI controller. Has about 700 sounds, including all GM bank as well, you can sample with it, it has a 5 track recorder, you can split and layer sounds (at the same time as well too). One thing you should've checked is if you can play the GM2 bank by sending MIDI to the keyboard. Using your PC or similar. Many products that have MIDI but don't give you access to it have this "hidden feature", which is meant to be used by their song player, for example.

[@WoodyPianoShack]

good point, but I'm sure no, i read the manual and no mention of the GM2 bank, i think all it means is that the available sounds comply to the GM standard.

[@crimsun7186]

@@WoodyPianoShack This "feature" is often undocumented, as it's not something one is intended to use. An example of that happens with the Yamaha DTX Multi Pad. If you plug a MIDI keyboard into it and set the correct channels, MSB and LSB, you can play the pads and also play a different sound on the plugged keyboard.

[@lvanc8082]

This is by far THE best review I’ve found of this keyboard, and I’ve also very much enjoyed your unboxing video. The keyboard should arrive tomorrow and I’m super excited! Keep up the great work. 👍🏻

Thumbs up to Nate for making the call at that discord screenshot! Good advice as well from an enthusiast's perspective in the video.

[@axs203]

Hmmm microusb! I'm with you there. MicroUSB is not very strong at all. I would like to see you compare this to the Casio CTX 700 if you have time and can get a model for comparison. The EPS sound nice on the Go don' they - especially that Wurli. Thanks

[@Zoco101]

I play my weighted digital piano 99% of the time, but I still find that a 61-key auxiliary keyboard can be a useful thing, particularly if it gives you some extra sounds or rhythms, or if you travel a lot. The Roland Go Piano looks nicer and sounds nicer than some of the competition, but it is a little expensive for a simple keyboard, particularly considering the poor physical connectivity. I grant that the bluetooth facility is a nice touch. The new Casio CT-S1 will be a strong competitor, because it has nice sounds too and is probably a good bit cheaper. For a main instrument (and space permitting) I would recommend The Alesis Recital Pro over the Roland Go Piano and the CT-S1. The Alesis costs more, but not as much as most weighted action pianos. It has 88 weighted keys, impressive speakers and good connectivity. The Roland Go build quality looks good, but if this is your main instrument you should be upgrading after a year anyway. PS Thomann (German online supplier) finally has the CT-S1, and (to my surprise) it is slightly more expensive than the Roland Go. I think that both instruments are overpriced. There are several full size digital pianos priced under €300, including Thomann's own DP-26. And most interesting right now is the Thomann SP-120 with 73 semi-weighted keys and a €185 price tag. If and when Thomann produces its own 61-key piano, Roland and Casio will not be very happy. If you're reading this and you want a piano for someone to take private lessons on, try to get a well-built digital piano with a fully-weighted action. Typically, these cost €400+

[@TheShinee000]

weight only ...The Reason

[@Zoco101]

@@TheShinee000 Sorry, I'm not quite sure what you're saying, but I guess you mean about compromising on action and size in favour of a lighter weight for travel. Yes that is/was largely true in my case, though some sounds work better without a weighted action, and do not require many keys. Two years have past, and I have experimented with two 73-key digital pianos for travelling The first was only "semi-weighted" (sprung really) and my new travelling favourite is a Yamaha P-121 with a graded weighted action. It only weighs 10kg. Since I'm mainly interested in vintage jazz now, I only need a few sounds on my pianos, but a weighted action is important, so auxiluary keyboards are not required. I keep an 88-key P-255 in my studio, and I guess I'll continue to use it on the more demanding gigs.

[@freddieblue6351]

The Go keys has a great action, I have never played this model though. The Go keys have good push and it very springy, kinda like semi weighted.

[@jacquelinewaugh5175]

Very good, thank you. There is also the 'octave shift' on it, up and down, Cheers....

[@DaraghMcCarthyDub]

I was hoping against hope that this one would be a weighted key number... In my head at at the top of the video I had already sold my large Kurzweil 88key and was zipping around playing thither and yon in my house and all about the town with it. We continue to live in hope. Thank you for this video.

[@snakysissy]

Thank you, very good and elaborated review to help me making my mind.

[@DinantRiks]

Thanks for the video Woody! It would be great if you could do a 'beginners digital piano' shootout, with the Casio, Yamaha and Roland options you mentioned (so I guess latest models, up to 500). Or maybe demo some models that can be found second hand in that price-bracket as well.

[@PeterGarofalo]

thanks Woody , I may get one , I'm looking for a backpack keyboard. & what wins me over on this is the electric piano & organ sounds , which aren't always so nice on other similar price/weight keyboards. Appreciate you running thru them at the end .

[@PeterGarofalo]

now seen & heard the Casio CT -S1 , similar keybed & great sounds , I think that wins it for me . I got over my disappointment with Korg Kross 2 keybed , which I returned.

[@Jack-fs2im]

I understand that Digital piano.s run in a contact strip.After a few years the strip wears out and affects the playin usually making some notes louder than others.I changed mine twice after five years ,till they stopped supplying the strip.Of course it depends how much you play.I used mine every day.Portability is my main goal as I gig a lot.

[@aemontarg6934]

Definitely best review on youtube.

[@AriKona]

Roland and digital pianos are synonymous in my book. Many quality manufacturers out there, but Roland has always been in the game. For beginners, unless they have space restrictions that simply won't budge, I always start them on an 88 like the "real" thing. Yes, there are pieces that use those keys way up/down there. ;-) Excellent and comprehensive review. If I were a manufacturer, you would be getting every new keyboard I made to analyze. 2 quick notes: 1) There are non-adhesive cling type film products to dim any screen you don't want blinding you that would solve the menu screen problem and 2) even before you did the flash back, I thought to myself, "Wow! Woody really looks sharp today!" Kudos to your barber/hair stylist.

[@WoodyPianoShack]

great feedback! i would put some gaffa tape over the display myself... interesting that the new 88 has lost the display, so not just me then.

[@keifriffards]

Excellent and thorough review. Well done sir.

[@chrislewis9014]

I’m learning piano on the Yamaha P125. It’s a great piano for beginners. I want something to practice on when we go away in our camper and this seems perfect for that. Not sure whether to go for the Go keys or the Go piano. Or if there’s another that might be suitable. I like that this one can run on the battery and the keys are full size. Good video. Thank you 🙏

[@sidneykovacs1728]

Very good!!!!!!! Perfect review!!!!

[@jjrusy7438]

the sound set looks like sort of a modified general MIDI set and actually sounds fairly useful. The scat vocal sounds like the one from the jv-2080. (that scat vocal is a blast, try some boogie woogie the next time you are around that roland scat singing patch = too much fun, especially if it has velocity control over the voices like the jv patch has). Looks like a fun niche toy I think not having a legit stereo line out is a mistake. people do own mixers, pa's, amps and other "jamming" things. Those speakers have a very limited usefulness beyond a quiet acoustic or unplugged thing or the woods, etc. The headphone outputs are generally slightly different impedance than a standard line level and can strangle the sound if not well impedance-matched to the input device that it is driving, so there COULD be issues with certain other devices that affect the sound quality.

[@PeterWalkerHP16c]

I still use my JV-2080!

[@7alken]

hi, I am reading about this quite weird instrument just because of curiosity what can be good on it - that BT-MIDI if done well is quite useful against some iOS soft-synths or even some newer Android 6+ softsynths or rather tiny romplers (those well done with zero latency, not usual there though). Generally iOS strenght is in softsynths and audiobus, even tiny cheap iPhoneSE can handle some very nice and PRO emulators - wired to some decent portable speaker (JBL Flip3 is FANTASTIC) and controlled by this small batery-powered thing may be also some "bed" use case (other BT-MIDI are some Korg AIR models, but they have really mini-keys). Latency over BT-MIDI is quite perfect too, these days. But for kids say 12+ to learn real piano feel, it screams for weighted full keyboard, to take it seriously.

[@McSynth]

Pretty good for the price. Can you imagine having something like this available for relative peanuts during the 70's ?

Hey Woody, long-time lurker and really enjoy your presentations! In the spirit of your Korg Triton videos, I would absolutely love to see what you make of the beast that is the OG Roland V-Piano. There's barely any demos of it online, and it was such a groundbreaking machine, it's a shame that it seems to be a Roland product that people love to hate - probably due to its outrageous price when it was new! I think seeing you get to grips with the powerful modelling engine would make a great video, especially with your Piano chops!

Interesting review. I have an old YDP121 which I love more than life itself, but am trying to find a smaller instrument specifically for baroque harpsichord play with as authentic a feel as possible. It's surprisingly difficult to find anything besides the C-30 which is way over budget. I may have to settle for something like a Go Piano. I actually don't need half a billion voices, rhythms and whizzbangs. Just an action that feels like a harpsichord. Gah!

I think this keyboard is the right choice for beginners. Not only does it feel nice to play, but it also sounds great! Personally I think it having good sounds is pretty important, because that's what inspires a beginner to play. If the sounds are not so good, that will demotivate a beginner.

Thanks for your review. I am thinking about learning to play the piano again. I am a little embarrassed to say this will be my 3rd attempt. Once when I was in my early 20’s, again about four years ago approaching 50. I have always been drawn to the piano and could listen to piano music for hours. Anyway as years go by I regret that did not stick with it and make the commitment to practice. It’s kind of like people who buy exercise equipment with the full intention of using it everyday then in the very short while it becomes something to hang clothes on. With this said, do you think I should go with the Roland GoPro 61? My concern is that the keys are not weighted. I last had a nice used Yamaha 88 weighted keyboard and I liked the feel of the keys. With my background of commitment issues one might ask, why the concern? It’s the voice in the back of my head that keeps drawing me back to the piano, telling me I was meant to play and express myself through music. No more self defeat, I need to go all in and live this dream I have had my whole life. Any advice you can give this lady with music in my soul that I so desperately need to express through the most beautiful sound of the piano?
