Before purchasing digital keyboards or pianos, it is important to consider which specific model is most suitable for your needs. It can be a costly mistake to buy any type of digital piano online without even looking at it. Random shopping should be avoided when it comes to digital keyboards.

The instrument you choose will depend on your skill level. It also depends on whether you are still a beginner or already capable of playing the digital piano to some extent. If you are already at a decent level, you may prefer a full 88-key digital piano. However, if you are just starting out, a simpler and more compact digital keyboard or piano may be more suitable.

If you want to be able to create new electronic sounds and replicate the various instruments of a whole band, then digital keyboards are more likely to meet your requirements. Digital pianos are the automatic choice if you want to feel and sound like you are playing a real acoustic piano. For a more authentic sound, you should choose a model that has Touch Response. This feature ensures that, similar to traditional pianos, the volume is adjusted according to the pressure applied by your fingertips.

There is also the question of portability – will your new keyboard or piano stay in one place or do you need to move it around? Different models vary greatly in size. So choose the appropriate digital piano or keyboard to suit your lifestyle. It would be helpful to determine in advance whether features such as a metronome, transposing function, or automatic functions will ever be used, as many models offer a variety of options. Having a built-in system that can teach you how to play a digital piano from scratch would be ideal.

Polyphony and voice harmony are both important features on digital keyboards if you are creating complex music where multiple sounds and voices are required simultaneously. Also, consider the recording capability that is needed. A beginner may be satisfied with a simple 2-track recording, but others may require a full 16-track facility. Additionally, consider the desired electronic compatibility. Some models can be connected to computers, external microphones, amplifiers, and a range of other instruments or devices. Do you want internet connectivity to download sound files and upload music from your digital keyboard?

Lastly, there is the question of which brand to purchase. Opting for a reputable brand provides the reassurance of their longstanding expertise, reputation, and strong warranties. The Casio range offers everything from simple beginners’ keyboards to higher-priced instruments. Yamaha, Roland, Casio, and Kawai manufacture high-spec digital keyboards used by professional musicians. Each brand has a distinct sound and feel to their digital pianos, so it’s always best to try them out before making a purchase decision.
