Review on Roland FP-10 digital piano black by Stoyan Ivanovv ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

For a long time I thought about what piano to buy for myself for lessons. There was a choice between CASIO CDP-S100, Casio CDP-350, Roland FP-10 and Medeli SP4200. I was very attracted to Medel with its characteristics and price, I thought for a long time whether I should take it. But after careful consideration, I decided not to give in. Despite the fact that the tool may be good, unfortunately, there are few reviews on the Internet for it, and apart from dry numbers in the characteristics, there was nothing else. And the variant with the hard hat 350 disappeared, it was only necessary to read the reviews about the not very hardy keys. The S100 was an option, but Roland ended up taking it. I have no regrets, only the joy of playing a wonderful instrument. Plus, connecting a tablet / phone via bluetooth is very delivering. Would recommend to anyone looking for an entry level piano with good sound and great keys for a nice price.

Pros
  • Excellent sound, deliver all stock sounds (especially harpsichord and electric organ). Nice keys, there has never been an acoustic piano, there is nothing to compare with, but the keys are very cool, you just want to play. The weight is acceptable, but picking it up from the delivery point was still fun. The presence of a port is more a necessity than an advantage, but nonetheless. It is possible to connect the phone via bluetooth, with the subsequent expansion of the functionality - it really delivered, a lot of new timbres (the accordion, church organ and ragtime piano delivered the most). Also more precise setting of the metronome, transposition and effects. There is learning to read music by ear with scores, a few songs with notes, and a diary that didn't work at all. Vibration when playing - a resonance is felt when playing at low octaves, especially on an organ and the like. Aftertouch is present and very delivering. The price is pleasant, good quality and functionality at this price is a rarity.
Cons
  • It's hard to find fault with this model. I can only note that there is no midi-in/out. Personally, I didn’t need it, I had enough USB for programs, but whoever needs it will have to get out. The volume on some instruments is slightly higher than on others, so when you switch, you already remember what you should do more quietly. Unfortunately there is no line out.
