Wow, what a great overview and so very appreciated, as I’ll be receiving mine later this week! Also purchased the WC-1 and am really excited to have access to all the fantastic Roland sounds, the newer ZenCore stuff and the wave expansion libraries I used to have on my formerly owned Fantoms. Love the fact that this keyboard offers so much functionality without having to be tied to a computer all the time 😊

Hearty congratulations Michael! So awesome 👍👍👍 be prepared to have an absolute blast! 🚀 Do share some videos. 👊 Cheers!

I remember listening and watching you on one of your old videos on youtube a few years ago, i see you have added your name now to your channel name, nice to find you again Phil, I recognized the azexperiment bit.... I used to play arranger keyboards but went back to playing piano, I have a Roland FP30X, can't play has good as you though, then I came across this keyboard which is incredible for the price.

Hey man, I just picked one of these up. I’m brand new to keyboards. I’ve been playing bass for about 35 years. Done lots of studio work but never really engineered much so I just got logic for my MacBook and I’m brand new at recording. I just wanna thank you very much for doing these tutorials for beginners like myself. It is super helpful and very much appreciated. Blessings and big thanks❤

[@phillc]

Hey @mikelly949! I'm so glad to hear that my tutorials are helping you get started with your new keyboard and Logic. It's awesome that you're diving into the world of recording after playing bass for so long. Your experience as a musician will definitely come in handy! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions as you progress. I'm always happy to help. Keep up the great work! 🙏🙏

[@juliacastro8928]

I’m saving up to get the Roland Go Keys 3. I am looking for a portable with a great grand piano sound keyboard.I have always wanted to get the motif xf8,but it’s to heavy and large,does the Roland compare to the warm quality sound of the motif xf8?

[@phillc]

@juliacastro8928 I love both! 2 different animals but the GO:KEYS is a keyboard for all seasons! It is great! The concert piano is very good and I have tons of videos with it. Recorded 2 singles with GO:KEYS. Look for "GO KEYS BREEZE" on Spotify or Apply and listen! Go for it!

Thanks for your very helpful GoKeys College videos! I’m wondering how I can use the GoKeys 5 with my Roland Aerophone AE-20 wind synth.

[@boredweegie553]

I got this go keys 3 yesterday as a bday present.ive been playing keyboards for 35 yes and this is by far the best I've had..they were all Yamaha.. the only thing I'm stuck at is the drums .. how do you use a drum beat? Iknow you can split the keys but that's not what I mean.i mean to have it playing through . I love how I can use it as a blue tooth speaker play along to my music from my phone , and it has midi too. And record it . I have the usb drive that you also need for Roland cloud connect to download into the keyboard

[@phillc]

@@boredweegie553 hearty congratulations 👏🎉 happy to hear you're loving the GO:KEYS! You can hit the play button to get a beat started. It is hard to explain without a demonstration and I am not near my keyboard right now otherwise I would have made a video to show you the possibilities. But the summary is you can either use the drums as a standalone or you can use the accompaniment. It all starts with hitting the play button and then you can mute the accompaniment or play with the accompaniment.

[@markheddleson2068]

When layering, can you adjust the volume of individual layers .As in lower the strings a bit ?

[@phillc]

You cannot lower the individual layers unfortunately. It is a bit handicapped in that sense. 😒

[@jasherarcega2655]

@@markheddleson2068 that is what I actually think because layering for me is very important for me

[@yoyódameeluser]

Hi! Is it possible to save a certain sound in a scene? I would like to use scenes as a sort of presets memory so I can save my favorite sounds or create new sounds and find them quickly. Great video, very useful!

[@phillc]

@@yoyódameeluser Yes you can save one unique sound per scene. I have some videos about this on the channel.

[@cinepost]

Is there a workaround regarding the MIDI limitations of the GO:KEYS? When you are needing to do a lot of studio work which needs it, what is your goto keyboard at present?

[@phillc]

Hey Myron! The only limitation is it cannot receive midi from other keyboards but it can send midi out to my DAW. I have used it in the studio.

[@cinepost]

@@phillc that sounds ok. How many channels? GM2? Which DAW?

[@phillc]

@@cinepost One channel at a time with Mixcraft. It is not like DGX 670 which allows 8!

[@cinepost]

@@phillc yikes , that kinda sucks. Congrats on this series. Looks like a lot of Go:keys owners have discovered your great videos.

[@jmescri8951]

Hi. Great video. I've been playing around with my niece's Casiotone CS-500, setting up the sounds in Split and Layer. Casio calls them Lower (for the left side of the keyboard, Split), and Upper 1 and Upper 2, which play together, mixed, in two Layers. You can do a Split and a Layer at the same time. Total 3 different tones/instruments. From what I see, it seems to me that Go Keys 5 can't do that. It either does Split, or it does Layer, but not both at the same time. Am I wrong?

[@phillc]

That is correct. The workaround is to look for a voice that is already layered and then split it. Like Piano and Strings layered.

[@phillc]

Thanks my friend! Sorry for the delay in getting back. Cheers!

[@jmescri8951]

@@phillc Thank you very much for the advice. It doesn't really matter at all. The keyboard has plenty of sounds. But I was curious that Casio was better than Roland in this area. There is no such thing as a perfect Compact Keyboard. Greetings from Spain
