Many people have wanted to see a comparison between the Roland FP30X and its competitors from other brands, and it is time I made that video. I felt that the old FP30 wasn't super competitive, but is the new FP-30X more competitive now? That's what this video will answer for you!

Thanks for making this video! When I first heard ES110, it made me remember the classical grand piano from my gran's house. I only checked for reviews to confirm the difference with others if I'm hearing it right. Buying in for the more authentic classical piano natural sound of ES110 - this has been what I was trying to find ever since I was a child.👌💯

It kept switching between my left and right ears and wasn’t pleasant. The ES110 truly surprised me here. The Yamaha didn’t have a nice roads tone in my opinion.

The cheap sustain pedals for Yamaha and Roland are annoying, as all three instruments support half pedaling but you have to buy better pedals for these two to use this feature. Yamaha and Roland support Audio over USB which is useful for direct digital recording or to loop in a virtual instrument from a tablet or a pc. Only Roland supports receiving Bluetooth Audio, which can be used with tools like iRealPro, a metronome with more features than the build in ones or to play along to youtube tutorials. Your unbiased reviews where you do not shy away from giving your honest opinion are great!

Hello, James 👋 . First of all, I want to thank you for your super videos. I love all your videos! To me, a Flappi plastic pedal is an absolute Nogo! For this reason, too, I bought the ES8 a year ago. I believe that every digital piano wants to be taken seriously should be delivered with at least two pedals! Sustain pedal and the soft pedal. With digital pianos, the left pedal could also be used for other effects. Personally, I use a three pedal.

I've been waiting for this comparison! Great video. Watched all the way to the end. We just purchased the FP-30X (with the wooden stand and pedal board). We found the keys to be more responsive (sensitive) compared to the P125. You cannot play very soft or very loud on the Yamaha. Fast passages are easier on the Yamaha though. Would have preferred the Kawai, but it is priced about 30% higher than the Yamaha and Roland in South Africa. The Piano Every Day app works well to change settings on the FP-30X. It's like a touch screen for your piano. But you have a good point that some years from now the support for the app or android devices that support it may dwindle.

See, Roland's action has a lot of potential in my opinion. It is very sensitive, like you say. Dynamic response is OK. Everything happening on the way down, like I said, is great. It's just not responsive enough to play fast passages efficiently, and in that way it feels like the player is fighting against the action to make it do what they want it to do.

Thanks for the great review. I had the exact same feelings about the Roland escapement on my RD800. It just felt over engineered somehow. Same as you I felt the rebound or return was so unlike any piano I’ve ever played and I never could get on with it. I’m going to try the Kawai ES110 very soon, was really impressed with the action on the mp7. Its about the closest I’ve felt to a real piano, absolute pleasure to play. Hopefully the 110 isn’t too far off. I would be using it mainly as a midi controller and for practice but would like to get the best action possible for around £500. Cheers

I think some people like Roland because it is modeled and just prefer modeling to sampling. However, I agree about the action. My problem with Yamaha's action is it gets too heavy in the back of the keys and Yamaha's GHS is long in the tooth. Think it's time for something different. However, it is durable although it gets noisy. I like the ES110 in this comparison. Going up to the higher level, I slightly prefer the P515 to the Kawai and Roland counterparts. Very thorough, James, as usual. Hearing Schubert on Rhodes is weird!

Thank you for being unbiased and not planning on changing it. You've just become my favourite reviewer. As an extremely indecisive person, unbiased reviews are the make or break it for me. I've been struggling to choose a good piano as a temporary solution and since it's temporary I didn't want to spend 1k on something that would be replaced with something better later down the line. I'm not fond of the bright piano sounds that come with many many digital Yamaha piano - I grew up on playing acoustic Yamaha and they sound amazing there but I cannot for the life of me like the digital version of them, so it boiled down to either the Kawai or the Roland. I'm not all the way through with the video but I'm slowly tilting more and more towards the Kawai. And if I ever need more piano sounds, I can always connect the Kawai to a VST and have more sounds there!

This is the review I had been waiting for. It’s not about the cost as they are all similarly priced in the UK. I actually want a piano to use as a master keyboard to play virtual pianos, and with its own decent internal piano ( just in case computer problems prohibit the virtual piano working in a live situation). Kawaii wins for me. Additionally it has traditional 5 pin DIN plug midi out, more flexible when controlling external devices via midi. The other two use midi over usb. Thanks for reviewing James, great job.

Again a great in-depth comparison. I enjoyed it. By the way an interesting idea you mentioned in the beginning. Is it possible to put 1 demper pedal to three keyboards? I think it is. Not the easiest thing to do but if you use optocouplers to prevent current run from one keyboard to another and feed the pedal it’s own electric. Maybe it’s possible or simple already to buy. I don’t know didn’t search for it. My personal favor in keyboards is stil the bigger brother of the Yamaha p125. Although the 110 got it’s own place. The Roland? I don’t know. Still not convinced. Besides that, the comparison review was good. Thank you for sharing and playing.

I bet all 3 of these pianos sound much better from their Output jacks into a Keyboard amp or PA system. For using internal speakers only, I’m surprised by how much better the Kawaii ES110 and Yamaha P-125 sound than Roland’s latest FP-30X.

Hi James, amazing review. Extremely informative and good fun as well! And I enjoyed your peculiar Scarlatti performance. I'm more inclined to get the ES110 now, but I have one doubt. You say the action is very light and I'm wondering whether that would be a problem if one wants to learn and practice with the idea of being able to play acustic pianos later on. Wouldn't that feel hard and difficult being used to the light ES110 keyboard? Would the FP30X be better from this "student" point of view? Thank you!
@ThePianoforever
@ThePianoforever 3 жыл бұрын
In theory, yes, but the FP-30's action is slow and clumsy, and therefore not very pianistic. The ES110 has a much more musical response, and while its action is lighter than nearly all acoustic pianos, its nimbleness is similar to the responsiveness of an acoustic piano. Because of this I feel that the learning curve from "ES110 -> acoustic piano" is less steep than "FP-30 -> acoustic piano".

Hi Manuel - i remember the horror of being at music college and having to practice on awful cheap tinny "easy action" upright acoustics - then having to do exams on a concert grand ( Bechstein & a Yamaha ? too traumatised to recall 😣)- with no prep time. Driving a smart car does not prepare you for driving a huge truck.Building muscle strength and flexibility in the right way is absolutely key to a happy life time at the keyboard and i agree with you 100% that if you train on too slick an action, you may think you can play faster, but these skills are unlikely to transfer to a serious, traditional acoustic instrument. The weight ( you can adjust these aspects also with the app ) of the roland is one of the reasons i chose it. I recently purchased the FP -30X and after 2 and a half years of no playing piano at all, deboxed, and still surrounded by packaging, played 5 hours solid such was the desperation and delight. I could 'feel' the lack of practice in my old hands but no "pain" and was ready to up and go next day for same. Much fun with the Bach well-tempered volume 1 D major prelude and fugue.😍 Maybe I'm too late - if at all possible, go try out and go with your gut. Sorry must go - good luck and much joy on your journey !

Hi Stefan - what a lucky girl she is ! When i was tiny, every time I heard classical piano I'd go hide behind the sofa and weep and weep at the inexpressable beauty - because i couldn't understand or know what to say if my parents asked what was wrong. We weren't so well off monetarily that time. Just as i turned 5, my dear old pappa wheeled an old upright along the street in the night that he'd bought from a neighbour who was moving away! 😍 In the morning i came downstairs, sat at the piano and in the end we (piano and me ) were moved into the wash house cos i couldn't stop playing. At first i listened to all the notes, and then found out which sounded good together then learned simple hymns and songs i knew by ear. My father played loads of classical music, and we sang together ( he was a beautiful warm light baritone, and he'd take me with him in the car if he had a job during school holidays involving a journey).We sang for hours- just anything and all sorts - simple enough for me to join in. Over time, i practised extemporising harmonies spontaneously, which all fed into later musicianship. I only had a few teachers before music college, and the last took me thru grades 5-8 ABRSM - i still feel a debt of gratitude and love for her supreme devotion and gentleness, and IMPORTANTLY, a direct understanding of the female anatomy - male tutors at college seemed unable to grasp that a smaller hand just cannot stretch a third above an octave. They caused pain, upset, and eventually when i just stopped lessons and practiced alone as my old teacher had taught me, they all actually agreed the result was much better. Sorry to ramble on, especially since you didn't ask me - but as a female musician who has suffered somewhat, i feel a responsibility to all young lady pianists. But, basically, involving yourself in her explorations, dance with her, sing and make noise freely - as I'm sure you do.. Keeping the experience going, even just playing music on in the background.. Encourage her listening ( even just play a note or 2 and see if she can copy...it comes up in exams later on...) Never force it ( pretty sure you wouldn't ). You know her best... if she's unhappy take action, but please don't take her away from a teacher she likes without damn good reason... Know she will forever treasure your love and support, and the special gift you are giving her... Just well intended thoughts from a female perspective. Bless you both.

I was surprised that not only the keyboard is better on ES-110 than on 30X but sound it better too. And given that 110 price around here was 30X price plus the price of the decent 110 grade pedal the choice was obvious. The shop owner had the humour to price P-125 about 20% higher than ES-110. I had a good chuckle. Thanks for the comparison. Helped a lot. Do you have a ES-920 vs 90X comparo? I have a feeling I'd have a zoo of keyboards around the house, eventually.

There´s a passive switch pedal called Morley ABC. Designed for guitar players to switch between three guitars on one amp, or the other way around. Shpuld do the trick, since it´s passive and the piano pedals are on TRS jacks. Morley ABC can be had for less than 100 dollars. Or euros. Or whatever. You should definitely have one in your studio, mate =)

Does the FP90X suffer from the same sympathetic resonance issue at the higher notes like the FP30X ? I guess they use different sound chip whatsoever, but not sure either.. Thanks

I like the kawai, but it dosnt have a USB out. It has the old style 5 pin midi connection so an adaptor is required. Huge oversight by Kawai.

Ok. So I’m looking at a keyboard for a church. And these three are my options. I’m leaning towards the kawai but any help or information would be much appreciated. Which one does the comment section think Is the best ?

I don't know the mechanism of Roland's keys, but does the key rub on the escapement mechanism on the way up as well? If so, that may be why it feels sluggish, since on a real piano you don't feel that extra resistance when letting go of the keys.

Have you ever reviewed the Kawai CN39? A friend recently passed away and left me hers. I played it at her house a few times and generally liked it, although it can't compare to a real acoustic piano. I take delivery of it in a few days.

I've played some of those console pianos from Kawai and liked all the ones I've played, they have good actions and sounds in them. I have never played the CN39.

I just wanted to mention, as a software developer, I'd like to offer a rebuttal that the fp-30x app won't necessarily become obsolete, as custom software can be (although not easily) written for the piano, on whatever platform you can think of (as long as it has a bluetooth adapter, which I don't think are going away any time soon).

Thank you very much for this video. I enjoyed watching it (watched all except the the electric piano sound part, I confess). I was looking for a comparison between the ES110 and FP30x about the key noise, action, sound and resonance (with examples). Your video clears up my doubts absolutely. I think I'm going for the ES110, despite the key noise. Fantastic job.
