Dude, THANK YOU so much. It's crazy that Roland released these keyboards with zero promotion and even more frustratingly, ZERO support videos. They sound great and have so much potential but there's almost no info on them online.

Welcome! Yes indeed, they just silently sneaked them upon us :) They really have the potential to become popular if people know they exist!

Brilliant, thanks for sharing this!

Great stuff, did not know u could change the startup scene! Re Chord Seq - the Zoom button allows u to put in more than one chord in a measure, upto 1 chord per beat.

Oh really, I will check that out, figured it was only for readability....😅 The global effects are, but I think a patch can still have it's own effects, I don't hear them change when a second patch/layer is added.

From what I can determine on the owners manual, each single tone can have only one effect active (mfx). Then the scene can have one total effect active plus reverb. So, essentially 2 effects plus reverb altogether. I'd like to see this tested and confirmed if possible.

could you make a complete sound test by category ? and explain the scene and favorite mode ? how to modify and save sounds in order for live performance ? thanks ?

A complete sound demo has already been done by someone else: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pYei2qaRgJbOcrA.html The sounds are exactly the same on the 5. Maybe if I have the time I can make the videos you requested, thanks for the suggestion!

How can i change the time mode for an effect? E.g. the 70s Suitcase Piano sound has set as default the FX "EP -> Tremolo" with tremolo speed "1/4". So it is synced to the BPM. But when i select the FX "EP -> Tremolo" on my own, I have just an absolute value in Hz for the speed. I cannot find out how to change time controlled effects to sync. In the total FX section there is a parameter for that, but not for the tone effects.

Thanks for the vid. On my GoGkeys3, I have noticed a bug I think. When I want to rename a midi recording, it corrupts the file and it only displays the first two bars of the song, and the song is lost. Another thing I would LOVE to see in a future firmware update would be the possibility to set 5 custom instruments for EACH scene, instead of a single global setting. That would make the instrument much more usable live.

Can the GK3/5 USB Host a midi controller (like the FP-E50 can).... ie to use knob/fader to send midi CCs to affect/adjust the current sound?

As far as I know the USB connector(s, the 5 has 2, one dedicated to the cloud adapter) is only for the cloud adapter and an USB mem stick. I dare not try any other stuff I must admit... 😬

Thank you so much for this, very well done. I'm glad you didn't do it too slowly because we can always repeat something. My main question is if you want to choose a sound and you know the # can't you just type the # in? Like if i'm on stage and i want to switch between organ and sax sound do i have to go to the menu, tab back and forth and then scroll through all the options to find the right sax sound? I think you said there are 5 "presets" you can assign sounds to but that's not very many if you are playing a large variety of cover songs, you know what i mean?

@Patric1976

Thank you! Yes I understand. No, you have to scroll the heck out of the scrollwheal. I would have loved a quicker way also.

So it just has 1 MIDI channel to record right? There is no possibility of recording a 16 Midi tracks' project as with a workstation, unless you record the different tracks in audio. Still nice that it can record 1 Midi track and multiple audio tracks too

Because of the cost of production. You get a fullfledged zencore synth engine in this thing for $500, even import of waveform expansions (!) from the Fantom series. I will get one to use live, compose in Zenbeats, transfer the same patches to the go keys 5. Really unique to be able to do this.
