Some digital pianos have semi-weighted or fully-weighted keys which make the likeness to playing an acoustic piano less or more realistic. Soft playing (where the keyboard is extra sensitive to changes in your touch) or hard playing (where the keyboard is more forgiving of slight changes in the impact of your touch) can be selected.Īnother way the keyboard responds to your touch is through the weight of the keys. The quality of the keyboard’s sensitivity to your touch can usually be changed in order to create a fuller or lesser range of dynamics. Your touch on the keys is what communicates how the sound of each note should be triggered electronically. Keyboard is where you connect with the piano. Here are the parts to the standard digital piano: Keyboard This makes stage pianos easier to transport on tours.” - Wikipedia.

Unlike digital pianos designed for home use, they do not have a fixed stand or fixed sustain pedals. “Stage pianos often have a heavier, more robust body, which is better able to withstand the stress of heavy touring. You can easily use headphones as a practising option but for listening aloud you need to have a small keyboard amplifier and a cable to join between.įurther reason to use stage pianos for gigging is aptly described by Wikipedia: The lack of speakers onboard is great on stage or in the recording studio, particularly if you play and sing at the same time, but it's tricky for practising at home because without a PA system how will you broadcast the sound of the piano? If there are speakers on the piano they will 'bleed’ into any microphones that may be on stage for vocals or other instruments, so this is avoided by excluding them. The stage piano often lacks onboard speakers so that the audio from the piano doesn’t interfere with the stage sound.
