This is my review on the Yamaha P-225 digital piano; the long awaited successor to one of the most popular portable digital pianos ever, the Yamaha P-125. The P-225 is a worthy successor; Yamaha retained the awesome basic design and features from the P-125, and then added some key upgrades in important areas: CFX Grand piano samples with virtual resonance modeling, a new action that reduces the size & weight without compromising playability, Bluetooth audio in, and a slight speaker redesign.
This is an in-depth review so it is long; there are links below to different sections if you want to skip to features that interest you. I rented the P-225 from Long & McQuade - you can check them out at www.long-mcqua...

I am trying to decide between P-225 and the DGX-670 I am trying to get back into playing. Just for at home use. I like playing around with the different voices, but also like something that feels similar to an acoustic

@PianoTone 22 күн бұрын

They’re both fantastic and have very similar piano actions - both are a bit on the light side but they are my favourite piano actions ever. If it’s just for home and you like playing around with other voices I would recommend the DGX. It has way more voices, tons of rhythms to play along with, and also a bit better main piano sound. Both have the CFX Grand sample, but the DGX has virtual resonance modeling which modifies the sound as you play so it’s that much more realistic. The DGX is just far less portable. Hope that helps!

I can't thank you enough for your excellent, comprehensive review of what seems to be one of the finest digital pianos on the market, However, I'm still wondering if this instrument has battery-operated capabilities?

Thank you for your review. I had P-225 for almost four weeks and I decided to return it. The heaviness of the action close to the fulcrum matters to me a lot. It is not personal preference (as you always say) but it very much depends on the repertoire you play (I only learn and play classical pieces). What also impacted my decision is my experience playing Yamaha C7 grand piano on regular basis - there was too much difference of the feel of the action. PHA-4 is much closer to the acoustic piano action. Yamaha weighted action does not have wide gradation: C2 is 53 g and C7 ~ 50 g (C4 is ~ 52g). I should also point out that headphone amplifier of P-225 is a downgrade from P-125 as far as loudness and quality of sound is concerned. CFX tone is worse than for P-515 and definitely inferior to Garritan CFX VST. What I liked the most about GHC was how quiet this action is. I do not think that you have mentioned it. Michael Ps. There is no doubts that our preferences of digital piano features differ quite significantly 😊

I've had the P-225 for about half a year now. I haven't been playing too much on it due to college but for a self-taught low-level player I've still noticed some things coming from a complete toy of a piano, some 61-key Casio. The first significant and ground-breaking difference is key-action. Having no key action sometimes feels monotone, and the addition of action makes the sound feel so much more genuine. Despite this rapid change, I've come to realize that the P-225's dual sensor is a bit weak and although it still works amazing and I'm very happy with my purchase, I believe it could have been a better keyboard with a more sensitive key action.

@PianoTone 6 ай бұрын

That's a big improvement, glad you've enjoyed it - if you feel like you need an even more advanced key action there's the P-515 which is at first heavier feeling but it is fantastic (or newly released P-525), or the Roland FP series which has a triple sensor PHA4 action. Many people love that action, I personally don't (I find it both heavy and a bit "mushy"/less responsive for fast passages), but everyone is different so you might like that action better.

Thank you for detailed review, comparisons to other pianos were especially interesting. As for the front ports I like this design in general -- this way it is less risky to damage the port itself, rather you bend the cable. First time I saw this (not the first hand though) was in Atari 520 ST and I am still impressed with it. As for the price, Roland FP-E50 (which you reviewed previosusly, thank you again 🙂) is more expensive but in similar price range (of course the story "just add $$$ more and you get..." never ends 🙂). One question -- right at the start you say the keys are weighted and graded "like in real piano". Recently I learned that at his price level the keys are not graded "like in real piano", but zoned. I checked already Korg PH3 (4 zones), Roland PHA4 (4 zones AFAIK and also my late discovery, the have shorter/closer pivot point). So considering the price my guess would be this keybed is also zoned, so unlike the real piano. I am not catching you on words, but since manufacturers are not helpful here it would be good to clarify this when possible.

@PianoTone 8 ай бұрын

To be honest I don’t know for sure about the 225, but it would be pretty safe to assume it is weighted in zones, most entry to mid level pianos are - I believe the PHA4 from Roland is individually weighted (but since actions are totally a personal preference you still have to try them all out to find what you like). Thanks for checking out the channel feel free to subscribe

@mfurman 8 ай бұрын

Digital pianos in this range do not have actions with individual weighing. At the best, it is done in zones. P-225 weighing is almost non-existent. PHA-4 has a longer pivot length than GHS or GHC (~20.5cm). Even Yamaha NWX and GrandTouch-S (in the new P-525) have a 21cm pivot length. PHA50 is ~22cm and Roland Hybrid Grand action is 26 cm (close to the pivot length of smaller acoustic grand pianos.

@@PianoTone She was WRONG. I even found a comment on Piano World discussion group that said: “There's no way the PHA4 keys are weighted "individually." That's either a term of art or she misspoke.”. Tony, I stopped trusting most of the reviews and I test the piano actions (every key) with weights set. You will be surprised how many keys have some extra lubrications that makes them either heavier or lighter than adjacent keys. If you check specs of higher end Yamaha digital pianos, you will see that CLP775 has “GrandTouch™ keyboard, 88-key Linear Graded Hammers” and CLP785 “GrandTouch™ keyboard with counterweights, 88-key Linear Graded Hammers”. All the lower model actions are weighted in zones. Michael

I have given P-225 another chance 🙂 I tested GHS (DGX-670) and GHC actions at a L&M store again yesterday. They were indeed very close as far as the feel is concerned. I decided to rent P-225 and they gave me a new one as a rental. I may actually keep it. I have to get used to the action but it is definitely light and responsive (perhaps too responsive 🙂). I recorded a Bach's piece on P-225 using its Digital Audio Interface (directly to my iPhone). You can find it searching for J.S Bach - Prelude No.1 BWV 846 (Yamaha P-225). I made a few fingering mistakes - I am still getting used to the action. Michael

I called local Roland service guy and he simply refused to deal with my problem. I called Costco and they accepted (after almost three months after I bought it) the return. I have finally given up on PHA-4. You were right (again) 😄 I do not think that I will be ever happy with any digital piano action but I need to compromise for my own sanity. Thank you, Michael

Curious - how old was your FP-10? Was watching one of Stu’s more recent videos on it and he said Roland has corrected how they apply grease at the factory in recent models. I guess there were issues that contributed to the clicking noisy key issues; supposed to stay better lubricated for longer. Not sure if that also could be the issue with your keys getting heavier …. Just a thought

@mfurman 5 ай бұрын

Or maybe it just differs by country considering I got myself an FP30x and the clicking issue was already present.

They're both awesome pianos; if you need battery option for portability or tons of sounds & rhythms/accompaniment then the Casio is the best bet; if you don't care about the rhythms or battery option, or if you really need/want the built in audio interface I'd go with the Yamaha. That being said if the sale price for the 3100 is really good, might be worth jumping on that. They are both great choices!

@theol1044 6 ай бұрын

I'll give them the new piano voices as an improvement, but relocating the speakers to the back was an incredibly bad move (in my view) that should be pointed out clearly. This makes wall placement near impossible. Speakers at the rear may be okay for a stage piano, where they typically will point towards the band or the audience, but for a typical home piano that will be placed at the wall more often than not, it's brain-dead IMHO. Speakers pointing to the floor (Roland, others) are bad, but placing them at the back is the worst. Casio also does this in some of their pianos. Rules this thing out for me instantly. EDIT: Now that I revisited the video I realized that you covered this point more broadly than I first noticed. I kinda skipped back and forth between the written review and the video and must have missed some of it. However, I still stand by my reasoning. Wall-facing speakers are a horrible idea in a home digital piano, "Wall EQ" or not. The concept of EQing out the problem is flawed, since the correct setting, if such a thing even exists, would depend on the material of the wall, the width of the gap between the piano and the wall etc. Downward facing speakers share these problems to some degree.

@PianoTone 6 ай бұрын

Yeah i agree - I miss the player facing speakers - the theory of “the sound bounces off the walls / floor” sounds wonderful but it’s not how it actually is. To be honest I rarely use my speakers anyways - it’s always headphones or full amp/PA at band practices. For home, any digital piano will sound far better with some studio monitors than any built in speaker. Thanks for checking out the channel feel free to subscribe

Is there any indication that they will offer a 73-key version (similar to the P-121)? I find 73 keys so much more practical than 88. It fits in a normal trunk. It fits on any stage. It covers the entire range I need for rock/pop music. etc.

@e0236 8 ай бұрын

Can anyone explain why they make 73 keys half an octave at the edges - why couldn’t they make three full octaves for the left hand and three full octaves for the right? This seems more logical, because there would be exactly three octaves for each hand and in this case it would be much easier to transpose an octave higher or lower if necessary. In bass I would often like to go lower into the counter octave, but the fourth octave is practically not needed. But all manufacturers repeat one after another and make these strange 73 keys.

Is it worth spending the extra 270 for the sake of learning and playing piano for years to come value wise? Also planning to use it for midi purposes.

@PianoTone 6 ай бұрын

They're both fine for MIDI; as far as spending the extra $ the biggest things in my opinion that you're getting are the rhythms and accompaniment (if you hope to play modern music this is a massive extra feature; fantastic for practicing and WAY more fun than a metronome); but if your goal is classical music then the rhythms don't matter as much. And the other biggest difference is the left and right line outs which if you ever plan to perform, join a band etc - these are far better than just a headphone out for connecting to amps, PA etc. So basically; if you want to play modern music, I'd recommend spending the extra now; if it's classical only, you probably don't need to.

Initially I was planning to buy a digital piano for learning the piano and then a seperate midi arranger/synthesizer functioning as a controller if necessary once I transition. I likely would just play at home/studio and not do too much live perfomances or travel too much, just upload the songs/works on a youtube channel mainly for myself.

@@Riku9361 The DGX is pretty amazing and has great songwriting and recording features (16 track MIDI recorder built in). So it kind of depends whether you'd want to start a recording using the onboard rhythms, etc - if so you can record up to 16 tracks on the DGX (track for main voice, another for left, another for layer, then more tracks one for each rhythm instrument, then some extra tracks you can dub in more instruments). Then once you get it to a certain point you could export the whole thing to a DAW and continue working with it there with the DAW voices/sounds. If instead you would rather just START right in your DAW using the keyboard to trigger MIDI, then the DGX wouldn't be worth bothering with if you're not going to use all those features.

I tried it for a week and took it back. The keys are physically shortened, and if you are experienced you will notice that they don't have the feel of the p225 keys and much less the keys of a Roland or Kawai. Especially If you use the upper part of the white keys. The sound from the speakers lacks the fullness of comparable brands in this price range. I believe Yamaha has sacrificed in a couple of notable areas to keep the cost down. If I were buying a Yamaha I would go up a grade from the p225, you won't regret it.

I agree, piano actions are totally personal preference - some people love the Roland PHA4 for the triple sensor and escapement, others prefer Yamaha for lighter & faster actions.
