These videos really dive into the details but clarify why the details matter, and which details matter more than others. My new P-125 is going to keep me going through a long time of learning.

yeah same! I found the videos helpful and finally decided, but i still watch them! Its just something about his voice, the style of the video, the information... I dont really know, theres just something about hearing him talk about the alesis and learn more about it thats so interesting and fun and calming to watch. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Great content! I can`t wait for the Alesis Prestige Artist review, hoping that will have improved keybed - overall the specs look really promising for the price range..

I have a question for you, James. I need an 88 key keyboard, with as full weighted action (as I learned on a Cable upright many long decades ago). I could really care less about the tones the keyboard has, as it's primarily for a signal generator for my DAW. I do have a few requirements: 1. Fully weighted action 2. Duplex MIDI via USB 3. Speakers disabled when connected to USB That pretty much covers it. As I said, the internal sounds mean nothing, really, as I have quite a few decent tone generators in my DAW. I also have a nice 61 key synth for custom sounds. I do need the cost to be as low as possible, as funds are tight these days. I'm also not picky about the brand, although I certainly don't want junk. Do you have any suggestions?

Hi there. What are some of the digital pianos with the best internal speaker system? I need something simple with internal speakers but I don't want it to sound bad.

Hi man do u know if the recital 88 (one model below this one) has the same problem with the black keys?

Great review (as always) James. I picked up the Alesis Recital Grand three months ago. Though a newer model, unfortunately some of the flaws you point out on the Recital Pro (and even more) remain with the Recital Grand. It’s put me off on their products. Back to Yamaha now, where I should have remained.

what song did you play in 14:22? sounds so peaceful

Can you program this piano on the pc? Programming might be the wrong word; what i mean is download and add additional voices for example a drum kit, which i would like to have on a digital piano. Help would be greatly appreciated :)

Hi, My wife and I love your videos!!! We just purchased the Alesis recital pro and had to send it back 3 times because the organ feature had barely any volume on the left side of the keyboard on all three piano's we received. All the other voices do have decent volume on the left side of the keyboard including the pipe organ, but not the organ. Could you please tell me which is the best 88 key electric piano for under $500.00? Thank you so much!!! Stephen

I would personally love a very simple digital piano that's done well with only a few features. Great point!

Do you know if Alesis Recital Grand has the same issues? I compared the sound with other models and I know is not the best but is good enough to learn?

What keyboard would you recommend around $400? I’ve played piano on and off for a few years and I want to get back into it.

I was thinking on buy this keyboard and I was pretty sure about it. What would it be better: Donner keyboard or Casio Cdp-s100? thanks a lot

Have you been able to transpose octaves? It's the only key-function that doesn't work on my Recital. Best regards!

Would love to see a comparison video between this and the iNovus and the Donner

The reason nobody has done the "single piano sound but good" is that the sound engine part is the cheapest part to add and have more sounds etc. It's the constuction that costs, and since they have to build it anyway, they'd rather just throw some more sounds in there too. Using just one sound wouldn't make it any cheaper for them. They only restrict or add sounds to artificially segment models for different prices - not because it actually has any effect on their margins.

I've had this for about 3 months and i still really like it for the price bracket. I switched from a beat up acoustic piano, though, so maybe my bar was not set very high...

I heard that most people are spending stimulus checks on clothing. Not me, I decided I wanted a keyboard with 88 weighted keys. I have a Kuwai keyboard probably 20 years old and it's so hard to enjoy playing with less keys that are plastic with no weight. I've wanted to upgrade for years and just never took the leap.

I think you have been incredibly generous with your time and effort with this item. I used one of these at a rehearsal since it was available and set up at the studio. I could tell within 5 minutes that this springy action would irritative my forearms with continued use. It is horrible action for developing piano technique and also not good for organ style playing. It reminds me of some of the budget low end models of Lowrey and Wurlitzer spinets from the 1960's

I’m torn between this and a better Yamaha digital piano, mainly because I just don’t want to invest the money on something that I won’t necessarily be playing 5 years from now… but I suppose spending on something decent is more incentive to play

Excellent demonstration of the shortcomings of this piano. I agree, these really are fatal flaws.

that was really helpful!

Hey - I am only the beginner on piano, but I have one question - is this really thet bad? iNovus and Donner are not available in my country (Poland). Yamaha P-45 sounds better than Alesis, it has better action on keys but it costs 100 dollars more - in Poland for such a young fella like me it's too expensive. Also my main purpose for buying piano is that I need to start singing and playing the piano at the same time cause i need to learn to sing "clearer" if you know what I mean. It would also be nice to start learning how to play chords, songs etc. on this instrument in the future. Maybe to record something but hey - there's a lot of nice vst's and then I will probably use Alesis as a MIDI Controller if I will be looking for a better sound. Alesis speaker system also have more watts (20 watts if I'm correct) than speaker system in the Yamaha P-45 - hearing the piano correctly during singing is freaking important cause for next couple of months I will mostly use this instrument without headphones (I don't like to wear them during singing) or computer (Plugins eat up my CPU terribly, I want to buy a Mac in the future but not now, maybe next year). So despite the price it's also why I wanna buy Alesis Recital Pro. Am I really doing a bad thing? Tell me please. Cheers!

@ThePianoforever

3 жыл бұрын

Sorry, but I can't recommend the Alesis.

For beginners, the even greater danger than that they will be unhappy with a poorly-regulated instrument is that they won't know the instrument is the problem. Normally, a beginner should attribute shortcomings to technique, not tools. It would be easy for a beginner trying to learn, for example, to play three-note chords together to conclude that he or she just doesn't have a feel for the instrument and give up. It's true that beginners won't immediately appreciate all the nuances of a really fine instrument, but the idea that one can learn on any old thing is a real mistake, and a formula for killing a person's joy in playing before it even develops. A beginner has enough to learn without also having to compensate for a poorly-crafted instrument.

They probably keep the digital samples mediocre so people have a reason to spend another $1000 on a higher quality set of samples. It keeps the flagship prices high.

The dilemma for beginners is usually “do I buy the absolute cheap beginner stuff like the alessis pro or do I save up just a tiny bit more for a better one”. Like, would it make sense to wait and save a bit more for something like the typical recommendations (yamaha p45, p125, roland counterparts, etc.)? I ask this because, in the long run, starting out with the cheaper ones and then upgrading to the typical recommendations turn out to be more expensive than getting just one. A person will probably outgrow that quickly. Not to mention, the bad habits and other things that you cant learn with cheaper ones. As you can tell, Im overthinking this lol.

Yet another honest and unbiased review, James. Thanks for showing us that, even if you could mitigate the line signal by making it balanced, the action is truly shoddy. Sorry you've stuck yourself with this dud.

I’ve been waiting 7 months for Alesis product support to return my numerous attempts to reach them.

with pianos and sustain pedals, about 90% of the time, if you insert the pedal while the system is on, it inverts the polarity. So if you're having that issue, try toggling the "on" state back to off before inserting the pedal.

@ThePianoforever

3 жыл бұрын

Also, if the pedal is being held down while the instrument is turned on, the polarity will be reversed.

I missed the gram weights. Wished you can continue to use the gram weights on all future digital pianos, because it's very difficult, if not rare, to see video reviews where gram weights are used to measure how light or heavy the hammer actions they are in digital pianos. If you do a video montage of all of your digital pianos in the studio, where it's just putting gram weights on the white and black keys, I bet you will get a lot of attention.

Alesis has become an enigma to me. I bought an Alesis DG-8 (digital grand) many years ago because of the "Q-Card" library and the ability to program a card with a great deal of instruments. Oddly, the Q-Cards remain hard to find and expensive when you do. So someone is using them out there. In any case, that is my only experience with Alesis and keyboards as they seem to be concentrating more on percussion and recording these days. While I would not say it has the best sound or flexibility of functions, it has served me for many years and at least I know that when I sell it, I can get back my purchase price and then some as the prices have held all this time.

It's almost as if there's no gradual velocity. It sounds ok... Great for a beginner. The cheaper modules can't seem to get it away from the "honk" in their sampling. Thanks for your review... I was curious about this.
