You guys make a fun video to listen to. I really liked the softer passages you played with long sustain. I’d love to have a recording of something like that to relax to.

The hammer attack on the Nautilus sounds cool. Thanks for pointing that out. Another test I've recently discovered? Hold a quietly played low note open with the sostenuto pedal until it's no longer audible. Then sharply play a higher pizzicato note or chord and see if the undamped low string can be heard afterward. On an acoustic piano, this occurs whenever the higher note is an overtone of the low note. Some of the higher end keyboards also manage this, and getting this to sound right really shows that a manufacturer is not cutting corners.

Thanks for the great insights! Really interesting - will check this out :)

Fantastic quality, which microphone can I use to capture sound directly from the speakers?

Thanks for the video! Everything is subjective, but the Gewa's sounds failed to impress. Your performance with the Casio made me want to go out and buy it. You two had so much fun noodling around, it really was inspiring!

Nice demo with an impressive row of keyboard amps in the background. But how about keyboard/synth amps for practice and small gigs? Any alternatives to the ubiquitous Roland KC amps? Could I use a neutral sounding guitar amp, or should I rather go for an active PA speaker?

I will be getting the Korg Nautilus 61 from you :)

Always wanted to visit the world of elves! 😂

I thought you'd be comparing Thomann digital pianos. Boy, was I ever disappointed. There in bold stands the name THOMANN, and there's nothing to show for it. I know Thomann pianos and keyboards may need to withstand the compare-and-contrast test, but what would be a better place to give us a sample, at least? I have a Thomann digital piano, but the COVID-19 epidemic put the project in mothballs. Oh, well... it's back to the closet.
