The electric piano is quite young compared to its acoustic brother - the piano. They have appeared quite recently. Indeed, as its name suggests, the main condition for its operation is the presence of an electric current, the invention of which took place in the 19th century, and active use became possible only in the 20th century. While keyboard instruments have been known to mankind for many centuries. For the first time, inventors began experimenting with electricity in music in the twenties of the last century.

When choosing an electronic piano, you need to decide on a budget, tasks. For example, do we need a portable tool, or a stationary one. Do you mainly need the sound of the piano itself, or would it be nice to have in your stock a dozen popular timbres. As a rule, modern electronic pianos, in addition to its main timbre, also have on board the sounds of strings, organs, electric pianos, double bass or bass guitar. One of the most important parameters is polyphony. This parameter is responsible for the simultaneous sounding of multiple piano notes. If you are playing a complex piece, not only the notes currently played but also the sounds played on the pedal are taken into account. Therefore, the larger this parameter, the more difficult the piece can be played, and the more professional (and expensive) the instrument. It is also important to decide on the type of mechanics. If you want an instrument that is as close as possible to an acoustic one, you need to pay attention to the mechanics. For a naturalistic playing with all the nuances, you need to take an instrument with an 88-key hammer action. The instrument response is customizable, as a rule, there are several options for the keyboard sensitivity curves. Some models have training functions, as well as auto accompaniment and sequencer for recording your performance. You need to decide which functions you need.

Digital keyboards with acoustic piano sound are available in several formats. It can be an imitation of an acoustic piano, with a wooden body, three built-in pedals. Also, instruments are released in portable synthesizer format. The first option is more suitable for a stationary instrument, the second is suitable for concert musicians, fits in a case and is relatively light in weight. Tools often have a versatile function. This means that the manufacturers have provided an extension in the form of a separately purchased stand with three built-in pedals, so if you need portability on the one hand, on the other the functionality of an acoustic instrument is an option for you. Any digital instrument has a MIDI connection function. This means that with a computer, you can easily connect to your libraries, allowing you to play any timbres using the mechanics of your instrument.
