Taking sample sounds from the EX Concert Grand piano, the Kawai specialists recorded a range of samples of this instrument and transferred them directly into the KDP90 model, making the digital version be as accurate and expressive as the real instrument.
When Four Hands are Better Than Two
With the Kawai KDP90 digital piano, you can go beyond performing solo. How about playing in a piano duet? You can do it in 4 hands with any companion. Once you select a special mode, the keyboard gets divided into 2 independent keyboards, 44-key sections each.

Budget-Friendly Solution for Beginning Musicians
The Korg has accumulated a truly vast experience in building various musical instruments, but the brand has become recognizable mostly for their pianos. Not so long ago the company has introduced the B1SP model, designed to exceed all of your expectations.
For starters, the instrument is furnished with exclusive Korg’s Natural Weighted Hammer keyboard action, which provides a gradual transition from heavy touch in the lower regions to the lighter touch in the higher registers. Thus, this instrument will allow any beginner to quickly adapt to the professional feel and sensitivity of keys since the dynamic response of the keyboard is very similar to that of the traditional piano.
The maximum polyphony is 120 voices, which is equivalent to 120 different notes that the keyboard of this musical instrument can produce at one time. The piano has eight distinct, expressive, highly detailed, and realistic sounds, including 3 variations of the acoustic piano, 2 flavors of the electric piano, 2 organ sounds, and a harpsichord. There are two built-in effects, such as reverb and chorus, where the former allows you to gradually reduce the intensity of sound, and the latter one allows you to recreate the choral sounding.
Poweful Crisp and Clear Sound
Despite being so compact and incredibly lightweight, the B1SP digital piano boasts a full-range speaker system, powerful sound amplifiers, passive radiator, and servo-assisted Motional Feedback Technology. The sound amplification system features 2 amplifiers with the power of 9 watts each, which reproduce powerful deep sound with rich resonance. The Motional Feedback technology featured in the integrated speaker system minimizes the distortion of low frequencies as well as enables an incredibly accurate transmission of every single sound. In addition, the MFB innovation reinforces the low-end response, thereby making the low frequencies much more pronounced, delivers full-range fidelity, and can even reduce the effects of poor room acoustics.
Piano For Two
For your ultimate benefit and convenience, the manufacturer introduced an active mode called "the Partner". This useful function splits the piano keyboard into two parts with the same pitch range, which allows you to play the piano in duet, study any melody together with the teacher, or even teach your kid some good tunes. In comparison with its predecessor, this model features an improved music stand with the expanded width and enlarged size to accommodate more music pages and bigger music books. Such stand will allow you to keep the books up to 10 mm thick, while the page retention pocket will keep the pages from turning accidentally during the play.
Correct Any Wrong Note On the Go
For any musician, accurate performance is very important. For this reason, professionals use headphones in-ear monitors, developed specifically for such purposes. They can be connected to any music device or microphone to transmit the crisp and clear sound without distortions. If you get accidentally out of tune or hit the wrong note, you will not only immediately hear the mistake but will also be able to correct the wrong note in the online mode. The ergonomic and excellent fit of the earbuds and their great passive noise isolation make them comfortable enough for long wearing sessions.

What is a Digital Piano?
A digital piano is an electronic instrument that is fully capable of replacing a traditional acoustic piano. Thanks to the weighted or semi-weighted keyboard infused with hammer action technology, the keys boast superb playability, realistic feel, and enhanced sensitivity. .Just like in the conventional pianos, the natural weighting of keys recreates a varying degree of touch sensitivity, from heavier to lighter in the lower and higher registers. The high-quality digital pianos from the leading manufacturers are capable of reproducing the sounds of the world’s best classical instruments. The cutting-edge sound technology enables the most accurate and realistic reproduction of sound. Thus, the digital piano offers an impressive playability and performance of a real acoustic instrument, yet with smaller dimensions, weight, and price of a digital analog.
In our review, we have selected the best models of digital pianos available on the market from top world producers that offer a truly fantastic value for the price. We believe, that anyone from a beginning musician to a professional music veteran will absolutely enjoy playing on this high-end innovative musical equipment.
If you are infatuated with music and know how to play not only percussion but also string instruments, then you can easily master ukuleles, which in turn can complement the evening rest at the campfire with pleasant live tunes. Well, for guitarists to improve their professional skills it might be worthwhile to purchase a new model of modern electric guitars.
What Features to Compare
The Number of Keys
The size of the digital piano keyboard is one of the main features that can affect the quality of your practice and performance. The full-sized keyboard should have 88 keys that cover the conventional range of all seven octaves. The model with a full keyboard will allow real professionals to reproduce any musical composition without running out of keys. There are options available with fewer keys, coming all the way down to as little as 25-key piano to a more popular model with 61 keys. Perhaps, kids could start learning to play the piano on small-range instruments. Yet, sooner or later you will have to update the instrument even for your little musical enthusiast.
Key Material
The texture and feel of the key surface are also important. In some individual models, the manufacturers imitated the material of best in the world keyboards featured on the classical instruments. If you intend to practice for long hours, the keys can get slippery which would ultimately affect your performance. Hence, you may wish to consider if the keys have a special coating that absorbs moisture or prevents slippage, which is most suitable and beneficial for long play. Go for the models, that look and feel almost as good as the world’s best classical grand pianos.
Key Weighting
The keys have the same weight, feel, and sensitivity as the acoustic instrument. The key action mechanism of the digital keyboard must also be able to simulate the response of the acoustic instrument. Due to this, the keyboard of the digital instrument should be furnished with a weighted hammer-action technology that simulates the workings of the authentic hammer & string mechanism. Traditionally, when pressing a key on the acoustic piano, you set into action the hammers that hit the strings, thus producing a real acoustic piano sound. In the digital version, the built-in sensors and hammer-action technology imitate the touch and feel of the traditional mechanism. Note, that better quality models offer fully-weighted keys with incredible touch sensitivity when the sound intensity depends on the strength of your stroke. Although more pricey than semi-weighted keyboards, they will help you enjoy superior playing experience and performance.
Maximum Polyphony
The piano polyphony denotes the maximum number of notes the instrument is capable of producing at a time. Generally speaking, the more notes, the more professional the instrument is. The piano polyphony can range from as low as 1 note and all the way up to incredible 256-note polyphony (probably, just a clever marketing gimmick).
Sound and Amplification Systems
In a digital piano, the sound and amplification systems are one of the most important things to consider, since they ultimately determine how authentically your instrument will sound as well as affect the quality of your performance and music you play.
How to:
FAQ:
Q: Why do I need to care about polyphony?
A: For instance, a kids’ piano with a minimum possible polyphony of 1 will not be able to produce a three-note chord. Chances are, you will hear only one of them. If you are a newbie in music and like doing your math, you may wonder how is it possible that the piano with 88 keys in total can produce more notes than that? Why would it even make any sense to press all the keys at the same time? Hint: that’s definitely not the way it works. Just remember that digital pianos just like the acoustic analog are usually furnished with one or few pedals. Thus, any player has a possibility to sustain quite an impressive run up of notes with the help of a pedal. 64-note polyphony may prematurely cut off the sound of the older notes or not play the new ones. Hence, 128-note polyphony range is advisable.
Q: Which piano should I better get a real acoustic one or a digital replica?
A: There is no single answer to this question, as there are individual preferences, financial or other constraints, and a bunch of other factors that can all influence your decision. However, we can help you make up your mind by pointing out some pros and cons to digital and acoustic pianos.
- The most important one is a Cost Factor. Digital piano offers a lot more than an ordinary acoustic instrument and at the same time is a lot more affordable. A decent average acoustic piano may come at around 3K, while more refined brands may offer entry level instruments from 10K and above. On the other hand, you may get a substantially cheaper digital alternative at a bargain price of1K (or even lower) without sacrificing on sound, feel, or performance.
- Think about a world of possibilities that such digital instrument can offer. What an average acoustic piano does best is it feels and sounds exactly like a mid-range acoustic piano. As for the digital piano, it can not only feel and sound like the world’s best classical grand piano, but also reproduce a range of other sounds, including various flavors of other acoustic or electric pianos, strings, organs, or even a harpsichord.
- What if you become more active, creative, and productive at the night time? Trust me, your neighbors (or let alone family members) will not be pleased if your inspiration strikes in the middle of the night and you feel that overwhelming urge to speak the language of music or express yourself with the help of your instrument. Even if you mute the sound of your acoustic piano with the help of the pedal, it might still be loud and reverberating enough to disturb the peaceful and quiet sleep of your family members. On the contrary, the digital piano not only allows you to control the volume without compromising the sound quality but also connect your headphones and become the only witness of your performance. With a digital piano, you are free to play the night away till the wake of dawn!
- If you have not settled down yet, plan to reallocate in the future, and hence cannot afford to purchase too bulky and heavy objects and put the roots down just yet, and still, you are desperately willing to purchase yourself a quality instrument, then portable and space-saving digital piano will be a very wise investment.
Q: How long can a digital piano last?
A: We all know that if properly maintained the acoustic pianos are built to last for ages. This could be the family inheritance that is passed down from one generation to the next. However, if you haven’t been lucky enough to inherit such musical instrument from your grandparents you are free to start the tradition yourself with one of the digital pianos from our review. With good care and no heavy abuse, these high-quality models from top world manufacturers are certainly designed to last for many decades to come.
Q: Does a digital piano require any maintenance?
A: As we all know, the acoustic piano needs special care and maintenance. To sound at its best, there is a number of maintenance procedures to improve or restore the sound and appearance of the instrument, including tuning, voicing, regulation, restoration, and rebuilding. Fortunately, the digital piano requires none of them. Unless you have a small kid, who loves banging the keys on every suitable occasion and eventually destroys some of them, no repairs should be needed.
The only thing you need to do is to protect the keyboard from dust and cover it with a key lid. Use a clean, damp, soft cloth to clean the keyboard. You may even apply some alcohol to wipe the keys if you remove excess moisture afterward with a dry cloth.
