Difference between a Piano and a Keyboard
Posted by fijrinroysh on August 2, 2009
Well, piano’s have more keys for starters….it is something like 17 more keys or something…..
Piano’s have more pedals which are more efficient (if you buy sustain jacks for keyboards, when you release the pedal it stops abruptly, whereas on a piano it stops gentally….)
Piano’s sound and feel soooo much nicer to play – the sounds is so much more amazing and even with the digital sampling technolgy on keyboards these days which is great, but nothing beats the real thing.
usually a keyboard is a synthesizer (meaning it comes with a few instrument sounds prerecorded) and a piano will be the instrument with 88 keys and uses levers and hammers to strike a string that then vibrates back and forth to create the sound and pitch Keyboard’s are electric, pianos aren’t
keyboard’s will do for beginners, as you don’t need as many keys and don’t use the pedal yet and stuff, but piano’s are definately a whole world better!!!!
Good luck with learning the piano/keyboard, hope I was of any help!!!
