The folks over at Roland are putting out incredible products all the time and new for this year are the awesome Go:Piano and Go:Keys!

These travel friendly 61 key boards definitely punch above their weight with great quality sound patches, weighted keys, arranging options, recording functions, and the option for battery power.

Man, hands down the best review of the Go Keys I've seen. I've been back and forth between the Go Piano and the Go Keys but now I'm certain I'm getting the Go Keys. You showed the features and not just played it, I value that. Thanks!

[vincentryanborres]

I like the Go Keys how you demoed the loop and your funky jazzy vibe. All the best man!

Just picked up a used Keys, such an amazing little keyboard. Love it. Great review!

[BarryWarne]

I like the Go Keys. Great new update on this type. Lots of utility

When Elton John had the in-home concert in 04 the quarantine he was playing a Roland 61 key piano just like fire piano I was so excited!

The looping button of the Go Keys is the gamechagner for us

Exemplary!!! I will be purchasing the Go Keys because it will get the job done and then some, for a way too cheap price, amazingly enough. The only big turnoff for these two products is that they are calling them "entry level" keyboards, which I totally disagree with. They are way better than any entry keyboard I have ever seen, and for the price, I almost thought it was too good to be true. Plus, that red color is amazing!!! Thank you so much for the amazing demo!!!

These keyboards are the best I've seen in the budget range. Look ideal for rehearsals at people's houses. I'd love to take my 88-key Nord Stage 3 to every gig, but I haven't got Lou Ferrigno as my roadie! You say the GO-PIANO has a slightly better sound - I guess it has organs, electric pianos but fewer sounds than Go Keys. Does it have piano plus pad sounds? I love the tacky 1980s (look in an endearing sort of way) of the GO Keys keyboard though. The sampling feature looks fun, but not something I'd necessarily be looking for. Thanks for the video -very informative!

The keys feels really really good, planning to get a second hand for midi music production. It is so optimized, doesnt feel too heavy or light, feels natural playing all drum kits, synth, keys on it

[TipTut]

Hi! I hope you can anwser my question! You mentioned that the KEYS & the PIANO had semi-weighted keys, do they both feel exactly the same to play? Thankyou!

[vanity]

I prefer the go piano especially for someone who’s trying to learn the piano itself. All that extra stuff just sounds a bit too much besides I like to hear the piano sound by itself. That just sounds like someone who gets bored fast and wanna play around with sounds. Thanks for showing us the difference. I will be purchasing the Roland go piano for my daughter for Christmas, once she masters that, then I will upgrade her to a full size 88 key piano with full weight keys and a more upscale version piano. But for now thank you for this. I’ve made my decision

Hi, nice review! I'm thinking of buying the GO:KEYS to use in my band, however I was wondering about the output and how it sounds connected to a PA/digital mixer? I noticed the ouput is on 1/8 rather than a 1/4 jack. Have you tried connecting the output to powered speakers and/or a digital mixer, and what was the sound quality like? Were there any audio artifacts? Also, can the speakers be switched off when it's connected to external speakers?

[Silajala]

Great review, thank you. Can anyone tell me if I could just use the Go Piano (not the Keys) with Garage Band and access all the synth sounds on there?

[gpeioarngo]

Well done review, useable informations for me. thank you.

[Sky-oncy]

Thank you for a great review, stork is bringing mine today 😀

[youmorgana]

I’d love to learn how to play but I would prefer the go keys because I think I would get bored only with the piano. I’ve been mixing beats on an app. Is the go keys a good starting point?

[martinegger]

Can it switch off the adjust or function sound while choosing styles? It would be cool...

[calebnelsenmusic]

The output jack is 3.5mm can I use a 3.5 to XLR in order to put the go keys through my PA?

[ProDigit]

Best review of these GO things.
Would you say the Go Piano has better quality piano sounds over the Go Keys?

[julietpang]

I'm seriously considering either of the two. I'm using it for street/smaller stage performances. Given an RCA headphones output, should i be concerned with impedence issues pumping this into a speaker? Thanks for the great review. Subscribed!
