Studiologic Numa Compact 2 Stage Piano Demo

[@julsrique9148]

This is the best demostration that I ever see for a piano, this pianist is a master player! Wow! I enjoyed a lot! Thanks Sweetwater!

[@tronlady1]

He’s mindblowing!

[@AndreSalcedasCruz]

I just want to say: congratulations for the presentation, congratulations for the machine and finally: I am buying it

[@JonesyTheCat]

Thanks Chris for thoroughly demoing the dynamics of the TP9/P keybed.

[@thefool2007]

That’s a well designed instrument. Stellar demo with great playing!

[@sammyrothrock6981]

Had mine for 4 years its perfect and love to gig it out

[@cristiano.7179]

It looks very good for a secondary piano at the studio and to play on live for sure.

[@kevinvanhove5834]

very attractive looking keyboard, i wish the keys were just as weighted as the ones of the roland fp10

[@petrus7977]

This kinds of reviews are the best, thanks

[@hezekiahdaggett2179]

I have that exact same tie

[@TZKeyz]

Great demo Chris and I like the tie. :-).

[@artvelcro]

Always great presentations Chris.

[@sammyrothrock6981]

I don't mind it not having full weighted keys I can do faster runs with this! The piano samples are amazing

[@blitzjazz4107]

Really nice clean crisp sound goddamn i want the piano

[@sudanjackson]

Wow - I swear when he started playing that bass, I thought I was about to hear "Diamonds on the Soles of her Shoes"...

[@kiwictor3752]

thx, it was a really good demonstration!

[@aight365]

I'm looking for an electric piano similar to this one but I actually rather 61 full size keys for around $500 ? (I'm coming from a piano background)

[@GeomarMendez-qh9ev]

Tremendous video, thank you, I really like the Numa Compact 2X as a stage keyboard. I would just like to know if the Numa Compact 2X can control DAW like Ableton Live? Thanks in advance

[@cnoriga]

I had the opportunity to put my fingers on this keyboard and I was disappointed as the key action quiet short comparing to other synth or piano keys. I mean, by pressing the keys they stop half way a normal synth or piano keyboard. I was in a shop testing this along with many others and so I could really tell the enormous difference. And by the way for what it was it felt more semi weighted than synth action.

[@Roboprogs]

Thanks for the information. Yeah, my Juno DS has that short travel issue as well.

[@davidmccann7772]

I have that same piano, and I love it. (I would be better served if I could play anywhere close to Chris' ability). It sounds great as background keyboards directly into the board/daw for recording in my studio.. That is what I got for...It is not so impressive amplified in band mixes, but then again, I didn't buy it for live performances...the keyboard action/feel is exceptional. It is worth worth every penny as long as you pick the right application.

[@charmyseul]

Hi, I'm considering purchasing this model. You said it is worth every penny as long as you pick the right application. What do you mean by this? Do you mean DAW?

[@davidmccann7772]

@@charmyseul It's great direct to the DAW. It's not all that great highly amplified in the band setting, nor would it be ideal as the featured instrument in the mix. For recording and quiet mixes, it is perfect (for me). Given the opportunity for post recording 'polishing' , you can't go wrong (again, in my opinion) The keyboard is as responsive as I could find for the price, and might be better than some costing much more. I hope I have helped.

[@JonesyTheCat]

@@davidmccann7772 Hi, do you find it a good midi controller for VSTi?

[@calebrabion]

For $500, you can't go wrong with this keyboard.

[@pgermain]

I'm impressed

[@Thomsonsemporium]

fab review.

[@martinhansen2184]

Great sounds. I love it.

[@dtasoudis]

Thank you for this! I saw in another video that audio cannot be summed to mono. Is this the case?

[@mikegeeguitarman8991]

a bargain but lord how I would miss a simple transpose button rather than menues

[@carlover4239]

Would this be a good choice for someone needing something as compact / lightweight as possible?

[@sweetwater]

Hello! At 15 lbs., this Numa Compact is one of the most lightweight and portable 88 key pianos on the market. They are well built and sound amazingly good for the money, so I think this would be a great choice. If you'd like to go into more detail, please call my number below. Thanks for your interest!

[@carlover4239]

Sweetwater - Thanks! I’ll call tomorrow

[@a0um]

I bought a Roland FP-40 cause it seemed to have a better piano-like action than this one. But I'm now thinking it might have been a mistake because I'm feeling the keys inertia while playing. I'm just starting learning to make some music for fun. I'd like to learn enough technique to play a real piano hence why I choose the Roland. But I'm starting to wonder if that was really necessary. Should I stick to the heavier Roland key-action till my fingers strengthen up or should I replace the Roland with something with lighter keys such as this one (which I guess is less challenging to start with)? What do people think?

[@knightofsg]

Can it play piano & drum beat (if it's on board) together for example? Tks!

[@DanSIlvaMusic]

I am struggling a little bit with the Numa about this: I am getting double notes in the Daw when recording MIDI. I know it has something to be with the MIDI zones in the Keyboard. At turning the keyboard on, and going to ZONE EDIT, there is always on zone for channel 2 and the other for channel 1. When I set them both to channel 1, I get correct MIDi recording. But I can not store this mode and I have to do it everytime I turn on the Keyboard! Is there any way to leave this fixed?. I just want a normal classic MIDi keyboard to play and I assume this keyboard has it!. Thank you for your help.

[@mister088]

how can you call up sounds off a laptop with this keyboard (program changes on the fly)?

[@sweetwater]

Hi, thanks for your interest! The exact procedure depends on what software you're using, but you can set up the Numa Compact 2 to send Program Change messages over MIDI to your computer. Feel free to contact me directly and I'll be glad to go into more detail! Caleb Lowrey, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, [phone] ext. 1620, [e-mail]

[@simplyepicaudioengineering001]

Very nice!

[@jarkkojanhunen6121]

Hi Chris, really nice presentation. Did we hear "the ability to swing" at 13:02? :)

[@TuhinTulsyan]

It's worth buying over Yamaha p125 or Roland fp30x?

[@geliopouthapesei]

4:27 EPIC!

[@Wendel_Kos]

I wanna see him review a mini keys keyboard like the Akai mpk mini lol

[@roffpoff8221]

can you do split + layering at the same time? , like bass lhs, piano+strings rhs

[@matthewcrawford1150]

Does anyone know what it feels like to play on this keyboard? Never played on semi weighted keys before! :)

[@eddyvideostar]

That's difficult to relate to someone. If you are into different genres, it should be viable. Instruments as the organ, Fender Rhodes, harpsichord, synth, do not need fully weighted keys.

[@vincentar8162]

Is there any drun rhythm?

[@PianoMan-hx3ev]

What speaker system is that being run thru?

[@geliopouthapesei]

I don't like the bright sound of the Concert Grand! Is there any way to make it sound less artificial and mellower?

[@eddyvideostar]

Maybe you could play it.

[@philjordan5090]

Yes you have an onboard EQ.

[@PianoMan-hx3ev]

The numa compact 2-2-U?

[@jamesmabugu7899]

Great value

[@itemps]

What was the first song he was playing?

[@infraredsight2269]

Armando’s Rhumba

[@emipuffle]

This one or yamaha p45? why

[@philjordan5090]

Fully weighted keyboard on the Yamaha. Otherwise, the sheer number of features on the Numa is overwhelming.

[@blitzjazz4107]

WTF ONLY 500 BUCKS?!

[@mikecampbell4349]

This keyboard or the Yamaha P-125, with regard to piano sound and feel?

[@sweetwater]

Hello! This is a great question, and it would be tough for me to make a comparison between the two without knowing more about how you play and what you're looking to do. I like the P125 and the Numa Compact 2 both quite a bit, but if you get a moment, please call my number below and we can go into a bit more detail. Thanks for your interest!

[@welitonduzelto2305]

Comprei uma hoje mais não tem esse só bonito

[@michaelolgaalgar5729]

Is it a midi controller?

[@sweetwater]

Hello, Michael! Yes, in addition to using it as a stage piano for its excellent onboard sounds, you can connect it via 5-pin MIDI to a sound module, or via USB to a computer, and it will work as a MIDI controller. www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/NumaCom2--studiologic-numa-compact-2-88-key-stage-piano Thanks! Nick LaMendola, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, [phone]

[@mikecampbell4349]

Sweetwater Hello Nick, I cant decide between the Numa Compact 2x and the Yamaha P-125. I really want a top quality piano sound and feel, and a lightweight keyboard that feels great. I also want a keyboard that can hold up at a cocktail hour party. Any thoughts?

[@virgilgray]

Sounds all alike

[@PreachermanPiper]

Can you record with the keyboard?

[@ddlmln7830]

You can't

[@jairsanchez2727]

Yes you can.

[@matankesselman456]

0/10 didn't play numa numa

[@vegan3561]

4;57 The rock piano samples are out of tune.

[@markjaylandes]

That is the worst tremolo on the Leslie. I hope that it is adjustable. If not, it's unusable

[@BarnacleButtock]

The mod stick adjusts the speed
