YOUNG CHANG UPRIGHT PIANO U121 SERIES

To describe its sounds with words, I'd say it's in between the lightness and softness of a Petrof or Gaveau and the slamming sound of a Samik. Looks like it takes too much place in a room such as a bedroom or WC - lol! But it doesn't even nearly influence the sound - just a problem of Japanese designers who wouldn't bother with design. What I like less (but certainly lacks importance) is the square -way too squary- shape. Everything: its versatile sound, beautiful appearance, comfortable feeling, and more than all, it's very sturdy. What are the pros and cons of this product? How heavy you hit the key, how the strings are (with more or less oxydation), for the rest I find them rather pleasant to play. Regarding Sustain ? it all depends on several parameters.

What about the sound on the entire range? And sustain? 'The less slack there is, the most precise the pedal will be' (Master Yoda, be gone!) lol. Once again, you'll have to set the brackets properly and let no slack in between them. I found the sustain pedal to be surprisingly precise. The right pedal releases the strings, allowing them to ring entirely. lol, no actually it allows to add a felt band in between the hammers and strings, which completely erases the transients and chokes most of the timbre. Three pedals features, the left one gets all the hammers closer by half their original distance from the strings, some people opt for changing sounds (which it does as the sounds have less transients), but I'd also say it allows to play faster for masterclasses. Velocity and sensibility are very precise, each key pressed is palpable. Heavy as it is, they clearly didn't refrain on the wood armature, cast iron sound board, strudy mechanism - all at a very good level. While it's made in a factory, it still remains well manufactured and rather well premade. I'd say it's pretty versatile as far as contexts go.ĭoes its finishing seem well-made? Does it look sturdy? How do you judge its touching? And its pedals? By the way, even with a high velocity the sound keeps the same timbre, without distorting. As for live, I'd say it should suit as the hammer mechanism takes heavy playing very well. I think its sound mostly suits recording pop, middle-of-the-road music and so on.
