Hello. About "Chord Of Canada" pad tone at 4:56, 🥰we can have it on MC-101, MC-707, Jupiter X, Juno X, Fantom and Fantom-0. To get the same sound as on the Go:Keys 3 & 5, you must :
1. select the Zencore "ChordOfCnada" tone. It is tone #90 in PR-D bank or D bank on all the synths listed above.
2. Edit the tone to disable partials 3 and 4 (On Fantom, turn off the partials 3 and 4 and on others synths, set the OSC3 and 4 level the 0).😀

Finally ! Roland does it right for an entry level keyboard . . . Looking forward for more!

This is the perfect keyboard for my 7-year-old granddaughter. For now, she's playing on my Yamaha, but very soon, she needs her own keyboard, and this is the one. Thanks for the review.

[xelonix_]

Thanks for reviewing this mates. I’ve been eye-ing this for the last month

[rcjp]

I always now look out for Andy's demos; so much infectious enthusiasm for the musical possibilities of new products.

[komalthecoolk]

Wow. If I had this 10 years ago I would be so motivated to learn the keyboard. The sounds on my old Yamaha were really "toyish"

[JoelStephen]

This keyboard design and sound are so dope. Coming from using yamahas for years.

[nhdyz]

Finally a starter keyboard with a pitch wheel. AND it's Roland !!

[mrdavies]

Really great new series of products! Cheers Roland! Thanks Jack & Andy!

[matthewwolf]

Love your ever bright and positive spirit, Jack. Truly.

Bought my nord from Andertons, fully in love with it. The Roland looks similar and sounds nice, im a beginner too so completely out of my depth with electro, the roland would have suited me. Understanding the nord for beginners is a challenge but im getting there.

[kylesimbwa]

dude, everytime he shouts out Ozzy or The Maltese Falcon, i do a little "woohoo". So satisfying! And Tay Tay too!

[maximilienb]

Good update, essentially for the soundbank and the look. And what about the speakers ?. Now its time for the go-piano update with just a pha-4 action in 61 or 73 note….😊

[ChrstnSmrvllMsc]

Uhh, the "silly thing" at the end? LOVE it!

[mrtyreus]

You're shooting yourself in the foot by calling this a beginner keyboard. It might not be a pro pianists gig rig, but it might be for the professional composer looking for a small keyboard with authentic sounds and MIDI capability to be inspired by and compose on the go.

[TonyCrenshawsLatte]

Things have changed a lot since my childhood Casio keyboard days! :D

[ZionGuySupreme]

@17:00 shocked at the functionality through Bluetooth. Loading from the cloud with pretty much an ever growing catalogue of sounds. If Roland is doing that with the Go keys.. I can only imagine what they're gonna do with their samplers.. The next SP404 is gonna be crazy!!!!

[abrahammartinez]

Really cool keyboard! Although I would love if more keyboard companies would make their keyboards playable by standing - considering the lightweight/form factor! It would make the market more competitively priced.

[apislapis]

I'm not a beginner but it's the affordability aspect of having Zen Core synths from the Fantom for not much cash that I find interesting. I don't need to dive deep into the sounds. I want something that I can tweak quickly & layer before the idea goes out my head. The chord facility is pretty neat too. I have enough Joanna sounds, organs & elec pianos already with my Casios & Yamahas. Loving the turquoise Go Keys 3. The splash of colour will add to my red Casio CT-S1 and red Korg Monologue. It's a nice change from the black or grey synths. Many thanks.

[centurio]

The red one is more Nordsy for Jack of course... The SoundCloud stuff is really great, that you can find a style for a specific song and are then able to load it very quickly by using your phone. Unreal, so this must be the best arranger-keyboard on the planet and it looks cool too and can also be used as a Zencore-soundbank for music production. I've been looking for a machine like this to use with my DAW too.
