What a friend we have in Jesus, I love that song, very beautifully done.

If you can't decide, just take it to the Lord in prayer

These models are not necessarily the best example from every company. I don't know all of them but I know Yamaha and Roland have better pianos than the ones in those particular models. Ultimately I could use any of them just fine. Great video. Thanks.

All of them sound good. Especially on stage when the sound engineer knows what to do to get the most of each one.

Never been a fan of the Korg Piano sounds, but their synths sound great! I have Nord and Yamaha and very happy!

Piano 1 = 0:18 Piano 2 = 0:31 Piano 3 = 0:47 Piano 4 = 1:02 Piano 5 = 1:17 Piano 6 = 1:32 You're welcome.

the Roland VR09 is in a class all it's own here. if you're a classically trained pianist and looking for authentic ivory touch to the key bed, well the precision to the Roland's action cannot be overstated. when I close my eyes I sometimes feel like I'm playing a grand. I actually performed Rachmaninoff's second concerto on the VR09 in Carnegie Hall last summer, and I had people coming up to me afterward asking me where they could buy the keyboard

Forget about the pianos, the Hymn is ultimate I love it ......

Gee, I thought they all sounded wonderful. I could not tell any difference in each of the wonderfulness. Great music choice, too. Very inspirational. Thank you very much.

i have very sensitive ears and definitively can detect bad harmony so my selection is 1.Nord Stage 2 2.YAMAHA Tyros4 3.Roland VR-09 4.Korg Kronos X 5.Korg PA900 6.Roland Fantom G8

Let me tell you, this is one of the best keyboard sound tests ever on KZfaq.. It helps so much.. :) 1-5-4 was my top three choices.. So, Nord Stage-Tyros-VR09 is my preference order. And it's official now that (even just with hearing and not knowing it is a Korg,) Korg's are too bright for my taste !

It all sounded fantastic to me, y'all are too picky, relax!! It's beautiful music and a great song!!

idk... they're both sounds like heaven... 💕

These sounds of Roland are so beautiful!

NORD STAGE 2... the piano's sound is incredible, i can´t believe!!

NORD BY FARRRRRR IS BEST PIANO SOUND, its absolutely beautiful

I always had a bias against Yamaha cause I had a bad simple keyboard, but now I got to admit, Yamaha owns all of them in this one. You should put other brands too like Casio, Kurzweil, Kawai if you can, would be great

Buenísimo el recorrido por esos tremendos pianos, más aún con ese tema "Oh que Amigo nos es Cristo". Maravillosa interpretación.

What a friend we have in Jesus ❤️🙏🏻

As anticipated, Nord and Roland pianos outperformed the competition. Nord is the best option out of them all. The Roland's had some great character too. #1- Nord Stage2 2.-Roland VR09 3.-Yamaha Tyros4 4.-Roland Fantom G8 5.-Korg PA900 6.-Korg Kronos

No 5 definitely my favourite, and... Yes!! It's Yamaha!! Hehehe...

Thank you for putting this together. Nice work and very helpful. Well done.

1- Nord Stage2 2-Korg Kronos 3- Roland VR09 4-Yamaha Tyros4 5-Korg PA900 6-Roland Fantom G8 ( todos bons )

I have 3 choices: Piano 1, Piano 5, and Piano 6.

Roland is the only digital piano brand that is certified by Conservatory Canada for Examination. That’s why it sounds more to steinway and sons. Yamaha sounds more like yamaha grand piano.

#1- Nord Stage2 2.- Roland VR09 3.- Yamaha Tyros4 4.- Korg PA900 5.- Roland Fantom G8 6.- Korg Kronos

I've always loved Nord. The most beautiful sound ever.

I picked the Yamaha first the Nord stage 2 second. Yamaha sounded like a real piano to me, everything else felt sticky, digitized and tinny.

What a friend we have in Jesus 😁

1. ROLAND VR-09 2. Yamaha Tyros4 3.Roland Fantom G8 This doesnt mean others are bad. All have their own pros and cons.

I selected the nord and it was unexpected to be honest. It just sounds more rich and vibrant. The chord resonance is the best by far.

1.) Yamaha TYOROS4 - Most natural, just a half point off on the low end 2.) Nordstage2 - Most expressive, but sounds less natural than Yamaha 3.) Roland VR-09 - Subdued, but good on the low end. Slightly less natural 4.) Roland Fantom G8 - Clarity is good. Middle of the pack as far as natural sound 5.) Korg PA-900 - It's a Korg, didn't expect much in terms of piano, pretty flat 6.) Korg KronosX - The only thing I good I could say is that it emphasizes the highs well I'm still very surprised that the Yamaha won. The people aren't wrong. The Nordstage 2 would sound good on stage for it's high character, but I would never use it for my studio recording. You could really tell that's not a natural piano Sound.

Nord is very beautiful

1,2,4,3,5,6 I have to confess that I recognised the Kronos piano as soon as it appeared, as I have a Kronos, but I didn't expect to like the Nord better. To be fair these keyboards all have very many pianos. People saying that X is too bright or too dark or whatever should bear in mind that in most of these keyboards that is adjustable either within the preset or by choosing a slightly different one. Not sure why people like the Yamaha, it doesn't sound at all real to me, and yes I do have a real piano that I play often. Often the real piano is not as resonant/bright/dark as we remember.

What a friend we have, indeed.

The song is a hymn "What a friend we have in Jesus"...

I prefer Steinway a piano,but to me you just can't beat a Yamaha Stage piano. For the professional piano player. Nord,Korg, Roland all have that clank sound when you hit the keys. They're all good, but each has its special sound as far as synthesizers. If you're looking for a good piano sound go with Yamaha Stage pianos you can't go wrong. That's my opinion.

1 Nord Stage 2 Roland Vr-9 3 Korg Kronos X 4 Yamaha Tyros 5 Roland G8 6 Korg PA 900

#1 was my favourite since I began to hear the sounds.

Kulihat Ibu Pertiwi Sedang bersusah hati 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩

Nord Stage 2 is the winner by a mile. Superb sound. I liked the Korg PA900 as well but didn't like Korg Phantom G8 one bit as it sounds very plain and dry. Tyros 4 was good but not as great as many say.

When I heard piano 1, I knew this must be nord. My favorite list is Nord stage 2, Yamaha and Roland G8

Lovely playing, beautiful selection, and great demo! Digital piano sound has improved so much since they first started. :)

Yamaha absolutely win the battle,second Nord,only these two sound almost like a real Grand Piano.....

Звуки №№-2,4,6 наиболее чистые.За Роландом не угнаться ни кому.У Nord слишком много шума,Korg PA 900 явно уступает своему собрату Korg Kronos,Yamaha,как всегда,сухая и невнятная,как песок в ведре,не смотря на то,что это Tyros4.Roland-the Best!!!

Roland Excelente 👍

1.Nord Piano 4.Roland VR-09 5.YAMAHA Tyros4

Its strictly YAMAHA & NORD for me!...nothing else wont do.

For me yamaha was the great. It sounds more realistic than the rest. You can hear just like an acoustic piano

Blind test from best for my ears: 2) korg kronos x , 5) yamaha tyros 4 , 3) korg pa900 , 1) nord stage 2 , 4) roland vr09 , 6) roland fantom g8

What a friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear, what a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer.

Nord is the most impressive and i'm a ROLAND guy...

first song is definitely indonesian national song , the title is 'Kulihat Ibu Pertiwi' , that's a beautiful song , well played

The song you played seems like an indonesian song "ku lihat ibu pertiwi". Beautiful played dude 👍

The Nord sounds the most natural to me, and is the only one I might mistake for a real piano.

We all know Yamaha has the most beautiful piano voices all these years, kinda disappointed it's sound a bit different in this video. Great video clip..🥉🥉🥉

It would be great if you could also display the name of the piano you are playing. In that way the comparison would make more sense. For e.g. I'm not sure which Kronos Piano you are playing - The L.Mays German Grand would sound amazing probably better than the Nord, but the one you are playing sounds more like a bright piano. But all said, kudos for your effort in giving such a wide mix of piano sounds in a matter of 7 minutes! Much appreciated.

1. Korg Kronos X, very good, metal resonance and woody, maybe for classical pianists 2. Korg Pa 900, good stereo image, maybe for jazz sessions 3. Nord Stage 2, too much compress and reverb, sounds like a dream piano, some plastic 4. Roland Vr 9, good, but cheaper sound for me 5. Yamaha Tyros 4, so much ep piano effect 6. Roland Fantom G 8, old sound, like an 80’s 90’s sound, too much compress and light sample Great great video :)

The More important than sound is quality of keys. some people may have piano but can't play it in free times (for example in night) and want an standard keyboard just for exercise in their bedrooms, i think playing "happy birthday" with these keyboards is harder than Chopin's.

Eh... Did he chose Grand Piano (0:0) On Roland Fantom G6? It just sounded like Electric Grand Piano (0:4)

6 Roland Fantom G8 5 Korg PA 900 4 Korg Kronos X 3 Roland VR 09 2 Yamaha Tyros 4 1 Nord Stage 2 Nord probably is the best 😁

KU LIHAT IBU PERTIWI SEDANG BERSUSAH HATI AIR MATANYA BERLINANG MAS INTAN YANG KAU KENANG .

5 - Yamaha had the best sound, it sounds the closest to a real piano. It sounds very warm and full. 1 - Nord IMO was a very close second, it's slightly more trebly and I guess Yamaha has a more driving low end. 6 - I had a hard time trying to place the Rolands because I knew they weren't the best but they're definitely not the worst either. This one just slightly surpassed 4 because of it having a slightly warmer sound. 4 - Again, the Rolands were like one was slightly better than the other. 3 - The Korgs sounded the worst out of all of them. Too trebly for my taste. 2 - This one had no full sound whatsoever, way too trebly and digitized. Overall, I'm sure all these keyboards have several different tones and features in them that can show off their true sound better than what this video has shown. (Not saying this video wasn't good, it was great.)

Must be something wrong with my ears. I like #2. Sound is very expansive and full. Korg Kronos X?

Roland VR-09 - the humble V-Comp - cool sound

Thanks for taking a minute to watch- I really do appreciate any feedback and comments! Tiff Jimber Indie Musician and ewok lover

this song is" Ku Lihat Ibu Pertiwi " national song of indonesian

I liked 5 the most, followed by 1, I think Nord has a little too much FX (in this take at least)

Alguns instrumentos com propostas parecidas ou propostas diferentes mas todos com muita qualidade sonora, a grande diferença é quem está tocando, que é muito talentoso

1. Nord 2. Rolang VR 09 3. Yamaha Tyros 4. Korg kronos 5. Roland fantom 6. Korg PA.

Nord killed it gracefully

Truth is simple: Give any of these keyboards to a real piano-player, and they will all sound superb. Because the magic is in the fingers, not in the chip. :-)

What a friend we have in Jesus!

Roland VR 09 is roughly 1/3 of the price of a Nord Piano, so it's a bit weird to compare them like this. The piano sound of the VR 09 is surprisingly good for it's price, but the keys are very light so it's better suited for organ or synth. It probably differs alot in key velocity levels too. If you are looking for a good piano, i wouldn't recommend it. But if you are looking for a very versatile, affordable, lightweight keyboard for gigs, i definetely would

I have the impression you compared a Nord Stage with other 5 'average' pianos. If you pick yamaha's best, roland's best, and so on, you'll have a fair comparison. Or maybe you didn't even choose Grand Piano on others, because it doesn't sound like so. The only piano sound which sounds good there is the Nord imo. As the results came out, as nord owner I was relieved x)

I think that Korg Kronos X has the nicest piano sound.

Thanks for a very sensible approach to comparison. The anonymity in the first section forestalls brand prejudice. IMO, the Nord and Yamaha both stood out with the former having more presence, the latter more realistic balance. I agree with those who point out that YT compresses sound quality so we don't get the full effect but all of the samples have the same handicap.

good idea and also nice play!

I like the 1st and the 4th the best. The 3rd was also good. And I disliked the 6th being the worst.

I like the 1st one best

Ku lihat ibu pertiwi, Sedang bersusah hati.... . . Indonesia song

NICE DEMO SONG, KULIHAT IBU PERTIWI..... VERI NICE

1 of course

The funny thing is, that if you'd have added the Casio Px5s to the lineup, and did a blind comparison, it would have won.

I said 2 and 5, and I'm happy to know they belong to my 2 loved ones: Korg and Yamaha. 😁

1 YAMAHA Tyros4 2 Nord Stage 2 3 Korg Kronos X 4.Roland VR-09 5 PA900 6.Roland Fantom G8

Among these, Nord is the best. But could not understand why Kawai has been kept out of this friendly contest ! If Kawai ES7 was here, it would come in the first position, I am sure.

Para mí 1, 5 y 6 son mis elecciones

Very helpful video, thank you.

As for me and my experience in keyboards Yamaha is de best when it comes to pure and original piano.

KORG 👍👍

i like Nord stage 2

What a Friend we have in Jesus *_*

I enjoyed this very much! I picked 1 and 5. I only wish you had indicated which patch was being used on each as there are many different pianos on each instrument.
