Thank you for all your kind words my Korg friends!
Just so you know, the recording chain was not elaborate by any means. I just recorded the Kronos direct to the iPad 2 via Alesis I/O in stereo. I used NO external effects of any kind.

The Kronos pianos sound amazing to my ears and since I own several high end boards and have done my own comparison, I can honestly say that Korg is among the elite in terms of capturing realism and playability!

Here are a couple of my other taste test videos for you to check out and compare for yourselves.

Wow.. as I said on the YT comments I can only assume the dislike on the Korg one was a mistake...

In the Nord video you make it look so easy, but I know it's not!

Is that a Joemeek SC2 or VC1 I see there in your rack?

"Ding, fries are done!"

Good hands. I can't play that long without grabbing 42 jacked-up blues licks!

Play the piano live, at volume and it really comes into its own. I reckon it outshines everything available in a gig situation

This is beautiful!! Why doesn't my Kronos piano sound that good . . Oh wait, I know, it actually does, my problem -- lack of talent and inability to stay out of the cracks. More practice, more practice!!

Lol, would Korg come one time with a new module to buy: Playing Skills of Jordan Rudess to import in my Kronos (or better: in my brains and/or fingers).
