![]() I run them into an older Mackie 1202 VLZ mixer, not the greatest high end piece of gear sonically speaking, but has great build quality, is super reliable and definitely does the job. Expect to pay around $1600-1900 for a new pair. For its class-weight/price/sound I think they are the best thing going. People go out and spend 2-3K on a keyboard like the Yamaha Motif 8, plug into a Berinnger or Roland KB amp and wonder why it sounds like s.t I would spend more dough on the sound system personally.Ĭurrently I use for my stuff the EV SXA 360s active speakers. I've tried probably every conceivable amp and speaker combination over the years to best try to optimize the sound of my keyboard/DP. For gigging, the "keyboard amp" is the most convenient but also sacrifices on sound quality. Both live or at your home/studio.Īctive PA type speakers I think are the best way to go. Has already mentioned, you really want to hear the DP in Stereo if possible. I just wrote this on another thread today: The inverter's worth £80 alone! Quite happy with that. Got the stagepas 300, the suitcase thing, stands and pole mounts, and a 12v battery, charger, and ac inverter all for £400. This involved taking a hacksaw to the pa stands, but I'm never gonna use them at full height, so saved a bit of weight. I have the speakers right behind my head, at head height (sitting), for lush stereo. It's also nice to have a pretty decent mixer, and it sounds good to run bass through the mix as well. The yamaha controls my dynamic range so much better, and cleaner, than the keyboard amps. I had endless problems with their horrible response, which always pushed high notes WAY too loud. I had assumed that roland's amps would sound top notch, but no such thing. The first thing I noticed is that the top half of my roland rd300sx piano sounds SO MUCH better with the pa than with my old roland kc150 keyboard amps. Really happy with the stagepas 300, played three gigs now, all bass and piano duo, nothing too noisy. But to my ears, good studio monitors deliver the best and most accurate dynamic range for digital pianos and VI. The speakers are not protected or grilled like a keyboard amp and finding cases that fit these monitors is going to be a challenge when i take them out for a live test. But again, these are studio monitors, mainly designed to do mixing with a flat sound spectrum. I also use a Mackie 1202 mixer to hook everything into and tweak the EQ which offers other possibilities to produce the best sound. The KRK's have produced the best live digital piano samples and various SoundFonts in GarageBand. I also want to experiment with a 10-12" sub for additional bass punch. The bass is quite good without distortion at louds volumes. It really depends on what type of gigs you are doing, the type of music, size of the room and the reproduction of the sound quality of the keyboard.Īs I mentioned in a previous thread, I picked up 2 KRK Rokit 8 powered monitors, 160 watts. ![]() ![]() They seem to produce a good live sound running a pair in stereo for keyboards. On October 30th, 2017, an orchestral remix of the track was uploaded by user Tommy Lapointe Blondin, gaining over 272,000 views.I heard some good reviews about the Roland Cube amps. Several popular remixes appeared on YouTube after "Tales From the Citadel." A Trap remix of the track posted by Trap City on September 13th, 2017, gained over 32 million views (shown below, left). A piano cover of the track posted by ThePandaTooth on May 8th, 2017, gained over 1.7 million views (shown below, right). The theme saw some popularity prior to the airing of "Tales From the Citadel." An extended cut of the song posted by YouTuber Server on April 17th, 2017 gained over 10 million views (shown below, left). It became much more popular after it was used in the Season 3 episode "Tales From the Citadel," which aired September 10th, 2017 (shown below, right). The episode aired April 7th, 2014 (shown below, left). The song saw a slight surge in popularity when it was used in the Season 1 Rick and Morty episode "Close Rick-counters of the Rick Kind" as the theme for Evil Morty. ![]()
