Each brand and instrument speaks uniquely to each keyboardist's ears, heart, mind, and soul. Both brands have great keyboards to be sure.

Korg is so well sampled. I can hear those dampers and the velvety hammers striking the strings like an acoustic piano, but recorded and produced well.

I think we are the point where both these pianos and keyboards sound amazing, but different. I used to feel one was better than the other due to the sounds and functionality being better. We are now at the point (imo) where it comes down to personal preference. I now feel with either of these keyboards, anyone can get the job done as both are very, very good and even if you choose one without knowing crap, you would still be doing damn good.

The krome has more than 5 variations of its Steinway German D grand piano sampled sound on its presets, it will definitely sound different to the Modx with different effects on its settings.

I think that's it! A 61 krome ex vs Yamaha modx 88.- yet krome can still manage to stand out!🤟🎹

Love your playing, could listen all day 😃

In the end it is a matter of taste. Both instruments sound good, showing remarcable achievements of the respective manufacturers. The Yamaha is a MODX8 featuring 88 keys GHS keyboard (7 steps dynamically sensitive), whilst the Korg Krome 61 is endowed with semi-weighted 61 keys keyboard with touch dynamics. A better comparison would have included the MODX8 and the Krome88. By chance, I use the Krome61 and I am pleased with it.

Korg Krome Ex é um excelente teclado, melhorou ainda mais o que já era bom, mas o modx é melhor, tem timbres demais, inclusive do lendário DX7.

I love them both. The Korg is definitely warmer. However I love the fun you have creating you own sounds with the Modx

Korgs pianos are warmer than the modx. I have a kronos and a modx. Modx is great with guitars and synth sounds, but kronos is also a beast! Both greatly unique in their own way. If you ask me the best way is just buy a modx and a korg. And if you can, grab a Dave smith Prophet. Enjoy

i can listen both as long as you keep playing bro.

Teclados maravilhosos!!!

Szkoda że porównywane są tylko fortepiany. Warto pokazać pokazać jak brzmią naturalne gitary, basy, zestawy perkusyjne, dęciaki Przecież nie są to tylko pianina a wszechstronne stacje robocze. Pozdrawiam

Tive a honra de ter um krome por 8 anos...já apresentava problemas vendi e comprei o xps 30 que é outra maravilha!!!

Great playing. I Do'nt have the MODX but a MOXF8 and a Krome EX6. For me the Yamaha sounds bright and rich but the Korg more intimate. I like intimite :-)) On the MOXF i had to add 3th party piano samples. I also like the warm pianos in my Integra7

You can get similar tones on both with layers.. is all about layering your sound.

Honestly depends what u need them for. I dont believe you can make a decision without playing them. These videos i fin amazing for narrowing down the search though. 👍

in my pro opinion both sound good enough to play live, and recommend both literally, i play live with 2 anyways..budget wise these two would be excellent. i use a Juno Gi at top and a Motif XF6 at bottom, i like the Juno because its light.

They both sound great.

O modx8 deveria ser 61 teclas também igual ao krome EX tendo em vista que a dinâmica das teclas faz muita diferença

KORG.. but it depends on your preference

Nice playing-style, muzyk ! Very easy to listen to. I lean towards the modx, tho' I've a longer history w Korg. Prob is, I've edited my mox so much over last few years, but my edits are not tranferable to modx

I own both of these and Both sound great! No clear winner as both use high quality samples! In this video, the Krome sounds darker and meatier in the mids and the MODX is thinner and more bright.

Hi what is the best keyboard amplifier. I am using A Laney AH80..it's nice but i want a more good quality sound

KROME EX sounds closer and "narrow" but MODX sounds a step further and stereo width is tasty imo...

If you want a workstation go for the Krome EX 88, if you want a very good and capable Synth go MODX 88 both are outstanding bits of kit.

if comparing Korg krome ex and Yamaha Ck61, which one is better?

That korg sounds modern and awesome the Yamaha sounds churchy both good but the korg sounds produced

Nice. Can’t you setup sound worship for krome ex

I am a critic of the piano sounds of the Korg brand. but in the krome krome you see an improvement and for the price is more than acceptable. The MODX yamaha is the same as the yamaha xs and xf. they are the same sounds that they use in all pianos and they change some effects and DX parameters.

both sound stunning. Definitely prefer the sound of the korg piano but I hate the Korg keybeds these days if they re not weighted. Nasty cheap feeling affairs!

Excellent piano playing and camparsion

Quem ganha em qualidade de piano Modx ou Korg Krome ???

Yamaha sounds brighter and dryer, but I like the piano and string patch better than the Korg 🤫 #KorgForTheWin

Excellent comparison

Hi pls upload the same comparison with synth sounds pls!

I've always prefered the smaller footprint of Yamaha because they place the mod wheels on the top left of the keyboard instead of the far left which Korg uses. I didn't like the new higher price point so I'm hoping the new Krome will debut at under $2,000 USD.

My impression: krome ex - the piano more dark. Modx - the piano more bright

Both have great pianos. Krome sounds darker than MODX, specially in Upright Piano. MODX pianos sound more bright.

will always keep listening to these vids, cuz I can never afford one of those.

this is the krome ex 61? with semi weighted keys? is it really semi weighted?

what piano sound was he using on the Korg?

I have both of these in my studio and they’re both awesome boards! Now I’m going to say something that you guys might find it to be hilarious.... but most people are sleeping on the Casio px5s &. Casio px560. They should’ve been featured right beside these boards.

The MODX definitely has a thinner sound even with the synth sounds. I haven't seen the Krome EX in stores yet to test it out.

Comparing 88 weighted keys to 61 keyboard action? All patches are going to sound more expresive with the weighted keys.

i'm surprise the 88 krome price is little bit higher... maybe due to better key and aluminium finish... both good midrange keyboard

HI, do you record this sound so clear?

I noticed Modx sound more richer.And the Krome Ex the base sounds more aggressive than the Yamaha Modx.But I'll go with the Modx.

Both sound good but i prefer modx8

Greetings they both sound nice!!!!

El Korg Krome tiene un sonido más oscuro, el Yamaha por el contrario es más brillante y tiene mas detalle de sonido. Claro que por el precio acá en colombia el Korg es cerca de 700 dólares más económico que el Yamaha que si es más costoso que obvio se justifica en tecnología y demás, pero sólo hablo de calidad de sonido En esta ocasión

Krome top demais 🔥🎵🎶

The krome to me sounds more fuller u can stock chords on top of chords without sounding muddy. D modx sounds good but it too thin n loud

Finally, Korg wins the piano sound. ModX has a good piano sample, but that krome, sounds like a good piano. I have one. One of the best purchases I’ve made

I have all three the modx6 and roland fa06 and korg krome ex 61 I love the sounds on the korg krome but I realy doint care for the keys the modx6 is the best.

Korg has more warmer piano Yamaha has more brighter Modx8 is fat but krome is slim❤️ I preffer krome

Go with krome if you want different... Yamaha same old boring sound. Korg has way more effects and options.....

Me quedo con los dos Teclados😍

I wish I could make my Krome EX sound like yours. What changes did you do to make it sound like this?

Para mi opinión los 2 son buenos en piano . Pero es dependendiendo mucho para que tipo de música y estilo de uso se le puede dar a cada tipo de canción. En los agudos de piano de martillo se escuchan mejor , creo que mequedaria con el Korg EX.

fuck i cry. i miss my piano riland juno di and iwas planning to upgrade to to yamaha modx, i want to go back as a musician but being a musician in my country in the philippines cant make a living i have my own family. now

should compare between 61 keys simi-weight

Sent my MODX 7 Plus back, for some reason Yamaha is shipping them with gen one firmware (do they have to, seems lame). Anyway, at least some of them, including mine and several at my online retailer would not do a firmware update, so sent it back, got the Krome EX. So glad I did. My needs are probably different than most customers for either of these. I have arthritic hands and can't practice or play long on weighted keys, so I need semi-weighted with great acoustic and electric piano sounds. Trust me, the Korg blows the Yamaha away for both. No comparison, especially acoustic pianos. I had the original MODX before and didn't like the pianos, but thought with the free Bosendorfer piano patches it would work this time, but you can't install that without the latest firmware, so returned it. The Korg sounds better and is a few hundred less for 73 keys. Works easily with Logic Pro X, perfect for live or recording.

not a pianist, not even a keyboard player, a normal human being...not biased to any of them as I have a very little knowledge. but the sound that reached through my headphone from Korg is acutely sharp and crisp, no extra vibration, whereas the sound from MODX is a little harsh as it contains a bit more after-stroke vibration, even I checked that through my software too.

Year 3056, another piano jerking with the new synths

Gostei mais dos pianos do Krome

I love korg but I would buy the Yamaha modx6 because I can sample my own sound's, I hate the pitch bend and mod wheel in yamaha I wish they get the joystick it's much easier to Play

I don't care about that keyboard,I just hear your chord play.

Well apparently Yanni likes Krome, he bought and uses 8 when he tours.

i have both these , plus 2 others, thinking i must go buy a cape (ha!) you should have demonstrated a few more sounds as both have some great sounds . I have added a number of great new sounds from ''DAN STESCO''on my KORG. all is good.

The korg is warmer. I think an hour listening to the yamaha piano can saturate me. The korg is more relaxing. I like to play ballads, I definitely prefer the Korg.

Man Korg killed it.

Is the Krome EX good for beginners ? can i play it standalone or do i need and DAW ?

Krome sounds more sweeter than mod X.

You were comparing 88 hammer keys with a 61 cheap keys. My experience, with the same keyboard but different version hammer keys and 61 keys are already different quality of sound touching.

Yamaha sounds are richer and crispier, but that kb is almost twice the price of the Krome, it’s not a fair battle. I ordered the Ex today, I’m very anxious.

Why just the piano sound ?

PLEASE DO A MIDI FILE OF YOUR PLAYING X

Name of video : Piano sample compared - take your pick

For anyone with a descent ear, you'd tell within the first few seconds of this video that KORG keyboards sound much more solid overall compared to Yamahas. I used to be a Yamaha die hard (having played the EX, XF, MOD among other yamaha boards) until I played some KORG boards including a KROME 88 and the PA series. I've also played the Korg digital boards.

comparison should be in all timbre not only piano ........

If u gonna compare pianos u can't have one keyboard an 88 key and the other a synth light weighted.. The 88 weighted obviously gonna sound more expressive... That's just common sense.

88 x 61 ??

For me Yamaha modx the best

Ja bym wybrał korga z dwóch powodów yamaha nie posiada pojedyńczych brzmień voice a druga rzecz to sekwencer który w korgu jest pełnokrwisty a w modx to raczej rejestrator pomysłów

Porównanie fortepianów 88 ważonej do zwykłej 61 trochę nie na miejscu o czym sam robiłeś wykład. Które DRUMS-y bardzej naturalne Yamahy czy Korga? Pozdrawiam

The MODX8 sounds way better in the Australian Summer.

I Love Korg More ❤

Hay una gran diferencia entre pianos¡¡.. y pureza del sonido... esta bueno la comparación xq se re distingue¡.. pero no hay competencia alguna, últimamente korg saco al mercado El Nautilus que compite con el modx... el krome... viene derivado del m50, y m3... que son sus hermanos mayores... con la línea kronos actualmente¡..

Are you using the same sound card with same amount of gain to record these sounds? Sounds to me that the Krome is being favored by a much better DAC!

Man, that yamaha sound horrible in comparison to the korg and I'm a Yamaha person. Just way to bright and thin. Of course, once it's eq'd and jas layers and stuff, it'll sound amazing! Then again, It has more pianos and voicings than what is heard on the video. Excellent comparison of the two instruments!!!

88건이면 88건끼리 비교해야 맞는 거 아닐까요?😓 엄연히 터치가 다른걸요~

Yamaha sound was way better. Immersive sound of the best sounding pianos in the world.

Did you edit the piano preset on the Krome Ex?

In upright, Yamaha beats korg. Otherwise overall korg is best workstation.

Yamaha is better for gospel praise and worship setting Especially with the pads of the modx

When comes to piano sounds..of coz yamaha will win....concert halls usually will use yamaha or steinway......korg has a decent piano sounds btw....not bad

My ears like MODX

Krome!!!
