VERIFIED BUYER
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Sound: Real piano like sound,...gave only 9, because high oktaves are a little week in relation the beautifull sound of the mid and low range. I compensate this by using doal voicing (Piano 1 withe Pad/strings 5) for Newage songs and rock ballades. So please start to make the higher oktaves in the pianosounds stronger, more full or little more chorus. The build in speakers should be stronger. (10W each!) Feature: I love that the note-holder is clear transparent, so I do not get seperatet from my listener or the band and have still the possibility to place sheet-music if needed. Quality: Great metal casing. Looks expensive and elegant. Value: I have 2 FP5, one for the studio and one for the GIGs, and I can do this, because the price of $ 1400 is just fine. There are a little better e-pianos on the marked, but they are $ 1000 more expensive, and this was to much money for the improvment. Manufacturer Support: In the last 15 years I never had a problem with my Roland keyboards. I have 2-4 GIGs a week and bought every 5 years the next generation of roland e-pianos. The Wow Factor: It looks very elegant, great for dinner music or living room. Great that you can buy matching stand.

Sound: Sounds are generally very good, but not as strong as Yamaha digital pianos. Feature: Beats are nice to have; internal speakers are good; action is noisy but nice; lighter action than Yamaha, which some may prefer. Ease of Use: It's a digital piano; how hard can it be? Quality: Initial quality seems excellent. Value: A bit too pricey for what you get. Manufacturer Support: can't say The Wow Factor: Attractive keyboard. Overall: Most keyboardists I chat with seem to prefer Yamaha digital pianos, and I agree that Yamaha's sound (esp. the acoustic piano) is better, but I gotta tell you, if your hands can get tired after a couple hours of playing, the Roland might be the better bet. Action on my Yamaha is so stiff that I'm probably going to sell it for that reason alone. (I liked the feel a lot at first, but I'm finding it more and more annoying.)

Sound: The piano sound is artificial. The other sounds are close behind. There is an overall muddiness to many of the tones when more than 5 tones are played together. The electric piano had a nice sound to it as well as the choir voices. The doo wop sound is quite amusing! I have tried it with internal speakers and with a Peavy keyboard amp. The unrealistic tones are not helped by better speakers and amplification. A bottom of the line Yamaha P-60 out performs this keyboard as far as realistic sound quality is concerned. Feature: The auto-rhythms are a nice feature. Numerous rhythms are included. I just wish that it sounded realistic. Ease of Use: You had better not lose the manual for voices, songs, etc. Fewer buttons translates to more dependence on the owner's manual and memory. Not rocket-science to operate the basics. Quality: Looks wonderful and feels solid as a rock. The only prblem is that the keyboard is very noisy as the keys strike the bed. Value: If you don't care about realistic sounds, this is a great keyboard! If I were going to keep it, the price would be $1,600.00 with the Roland stand and bench! Manufacturer Support: Unknown! The Wow Factor: Looks great, but sounds only a little more realistic than a Casio toy keyboard. Overall: I am going to return it as soon as possible and get a Yamaha.

Sound: My last review of this same product was removed... This is a very unimpressive keyboard. The sounds are unrealistic and unexpressive. Feature: A nice array of features. Ease of Use: Many features...few buttons to access means possible confusion for some! Quality: It appears solidly constructed and attractive! Value: Current price of about $1,600.00 is way too much. Manufacturer Support: Unknown - Only had it on loan for a few days! The Wow Factor: Looks nice and plays second rate compared to Yamaha. Overall: I will return it without one thought!
