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…

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.

The product is good, there are only a few minor flaws.

I took the tool, "felt" it in the cabin and studied it very well before buying. I'll be honest, for my money it suits my tasks quite well. Ofcomurse, there are also disadvantages here, from the point of view ofcomncert performance. such as switching octaves in several, not one click (through the menu, etc. ), the lack of a split function (already mentioned). I must say right away that I am a professional jazz musician. From the point of view of pianism, this instrument is certainly not suitable

Pros
  • a good working tool for a session musician for this price: nice keyboard very good piano tone, as well as standard excellent other Rolandian sounds very compact and lightweight
Cons
  • there is no keyboard split (bass / piano split), line out connector - mini jack, you have to buy good adapters for normal sound through an amp at a concert and turnips (I knew about all this before buying, I am writing more for those who may not always be attentive)

I³'m satisfied with the product, it³'s well made and the price is also satisfying.

It felt like more was planned than done. There are a bit less effects and settings than you would expect from a Roland synthesizer. * (if you do not turn off the velocity sensitivity, you have to hit them mercilessly, and when you try to press a white key between black ones, there is a problem at all). * (an external program for setting operation parameters suggests itself, it is written, but there is no support for this model). * (too many Latin Americans available). The tool has very…

Pros
  • Bluetooth support (audio input and Midi-in/out), MicroUSB connector reduces the cost of switching with a PC or Apple gadgets. There is an audio input. Compact and lightweight. There are a number of unique features (ScratchX language for external control).
Cons
  • 1 The keys are very tight (*); 2 Not all instruments are normally compatible with polyphony or repeated pressing of the same key; There is no support for multi-layer sounds, but there are two-layer ones in sets; 3 Inconvenient menu (*); 4 Few (*) normal rhythms/styles. For some styles, minors/majors do not set to your liking. 5 Not compatible with Piano Partner 2. 6 Color unopposed red.

Good product for me, I was satisfied with the price.

The instrument was bought as a second instrument for the Roland FP-30 for training a child on vacation in the countryside. Chose quite a long time between Yamaha, Casio and Roland. The key conditions were - minimum dimensions, minimum weight, 61 keys, more or less normal instruments (so that they do not sound like Chinese toys for 1000), more or less normal keyboard (it is clear that they are not hammers, but ordinary buttons, otherwise it will weigh like a kettlebell and a child of 9 years…

Pros
  • 1. Compact and lightweight tool (4 kg!). 2. Price. 3. Acceptable sound. 4. Sufficient functionality. 5. Large set of samples. 6. Bluetooth (Audio and MIDI). 7. Polyphony 128 voices.
Cons
  • 0. No built-in metronome. This is the most inconvenient! 1. No pedal included. 2. No Damper resonances (available in Go:Piano) 3. The audio engine is generally simpler than in the FP-30 (a conditional drawback, because different categories). 4. There is no stand for notes in the kit (there are holes in the case for it, Go:Piano is included in the kit). The native stand is completely inhumane, but I did not find a compatible Tao. I'll have to buy some copy of Yamakhovskaya and modify it with a file. 5. Piano samples are rustic. 6. Missing 6.3mm headphone jack. 7. It is not convenient to change samples during the performance. 8. Not supported by PianoPartner2.

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

My second synthesizer (the first Yamaha PSR-e373 stayed for a week and changed to this one) - but I had to immediately listen to the advice of the elders This device was recommended by a familiar keyboardist, but I didn't pay much attention to the Internet, and the budget is already different compared to the target one. But! After buying Yamaha, I realized that the choice was not correct. I watched video reviews, read articles, and already remembering my past experience, I went to the store to…

Pros
  • + Design + Sound (characteristics and quantity) + Build quality, materials + Bluetooth + Keys + Size + Weight
Cons
  • - Control buttons - Mix Loop - No music stand included -+ Mini jack output -+ Access to sound bank

The perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

Its pros: Great tool for practice. Compact, battery powered, nice keyboard. The speakers are normal, even the volume is with a margin, if you study at home. There was a yamaha reface cp - you can’t compare either the build quality or the speakers - they barely sound like on a phone, and even with an overload at max volume. You can take it anywhere, without dependence on the network and amplifier with speakers. Pitch and modulation on tape tracks and the same tapes are pampering, I don’t know ho

Perfect product for any user!

Compared to real synthesizers for the same price (for example, the CASIO 6200 that I had before), the set of internal functions of Roland GO-61: Keys is frankly small. In fact, Roland is a set of musical instruments + Loop Mix function, which is more suitable for demonstrating the construction of instrumental compositions (like, click here, there will be a bass, click here, there will be a beat). My two-year-old daughter liked it, but from this Loop Mix function I use only drums instead of a…

Pros
  • 1. Compactness, 2. Comfortable keys, 3. Available presets sound nice, 4. Catchy catchy design, 5. Simple operation
Cons
  • 1. The line output is made in 3.5 mm format (traditionally 6.3 mm jack). 2. There is not enough full-fledged division of the keyboard into 2 instruments. The declared Chord function in the Loop Mix mode, which was supposed to partially solve the problem, does not allow building full-fledged accompaniment chord sequences in about half of the styles (for example, somewhere it does not allow using major chords, but somewhere minor).
