Although digital pianos and traditional pianos each have their own advantages, digital pianos have advantages over traditional pianos in the following ways.
1. Tone: Digital pianos can achieve a high level of tone at a much lower budget, as any average digital piano can contain more than one set of high-level piano tones, whereas traditional pianos require a high cost to get the raw materials perfectly tuned to produce the same tone and require a lot of maintenance.
2. Convenience: digital pianos are more adaptable to modern everyday life. It is possible to import the music played into a computer or other device for subsequent processing via a MIDI interface, which is not possible with a traditional piano. Digital pianos can also be used with headphones, which makes it possible to practice without disturbing others. Digital pianos are lighter and more mobile than traditional pianos.
3. Feel: Digital pianos can achieve the characteristic strummer feel of a fine grand piano through a special mechanism that creates a gap with upright pianos in the same price range.
Understanding the advantages of digital pianos compared to traditional pianos, it becomes clear how to choose the better digital pianos.
1. Tone: Make sure that the digital piano you choose includes a good enough tone and a greater number of them. Ensure that the digital piano you choose meets the tonal requirements for playing and practising.
2. Convenience: Consider the needs of your living environment and whether you need to export your music to other devices for post-processing. If there are other people in the practice environment, make sure that the digital piano you have chosen has a headphone jack. If you need to move the digital piano frequently, check the size and weight of the product.
3. Feel: If you are a beginner, you will not require a particularly good feel for the keys and will mainly be in the familiarisation and learning phase. If you are an advanced learner, ensure the keys are designed to fit your needs.
