Review on Synthesizer Roland GO:KEYS GO-61K red by Darina Basile ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very pleased with this purchase, will recommend it to everyone!

Go Key sound great! We immediately turn off the sound signal when you press the TOUCH SOUND menu buttons to "Off". Another of its applications, interactive karaoke with the ability to play while playing midi and kar files, the sound is very realistic, such as MIDI Voyager Karaoke for android, etc. Pairing with mobile devices via BLUETOOTH is smooth, without delay. Loop Mix is ​​not usual, but if you figure it out, it's not bad, there is also a built-in simple sequencer (overlaying your played melodies in layers) I liked it. I came up with a pedal from a Yamaha synthesizer, the connector is the same. There are a lot more sounds in the Reaper program than in the menu, a lot has been transferred from the Juno DS and D50. It is possible to turn it into a self-playing game with auto accompaniment, more than 5 thousand styles. Install the One Man Band v11.0 program, it is not demanding on computers, any netbook or tablet will do, there is a version for Windows tablets and iPad. (the program can be downloaded from a well-known resource). Connect the tablet to the synthesizer via bluetooth midi or USB cable. In the midi output program, specify Go:KEYS. : Preferens - midi Ports - midi in and midi out Go:KEYS, so that he himself synthesizes the sound at the output, his sound, I repeat, is realistic. And Go:key gets auto accompaniment with over 5000 rhythms from the korg pa series to the latest tyros and roland pits (. sty, . pst format). The program implements an interface for the touchscreen of the device. Quick change of tools in this program on the screen.

Pros
  • This synth is small, light and has a magical sound, the keys are standard. The sounds of the synthesizer instruments are very juicy, bright and realistic, unlike the Yamaha PSR 300 and 400 (Roland has 128 polyphony, though). Some sounds are carried over from the old Roland D30-50 series (hello 80s). Legendary patches, for example "Staccato heaven" "№37-Stacc Heaven" , Fantasia D50, etc. At first it was a little unusual to play on elastic keys, then I stopped noticing it, now I even like it. Auto accompaniment via Windows or iOS tablet with One Man Band via bluetooth, freedom from wires.
Cons
  • The sound through the built-in speakers is not as rich as it turned out later through the headphones and music speakers. center. Although you can listen. Through the speakers of music. center, through a combo for keyboards or headphones, bass and treble are just super. This is common in professional instruments. The music stand cannot be purchased, only ordered as a spare part for the Piano GO.
