I also have to mention that I also practiced on an acoustic upright for 8 years before I went to the university. So, yes, you can find yourself a better digital and play Bach in the night. Honestly, the difference between my digial grand and an acoustic grand is far less than between her acoustic upright and an acoustic grand! But she also had a digital, a Casio again. My former teacher had an acoustic upright which I really hated, for many reasons. the present digital may have to stay along with me for yet a few years until I can afford the upgrade. So I don't care much about the loudspeakers anyway. But I need the headphone option, I cannot have an acoustic where I live and that's that. Its action is exactly as an acoustic Yamaha grand (I have played on many of those) but the sound is of course not exactly the same as it is sampled. I am considering switching my nice piano to a hybrid piano, a Yamaha AvantGrand N1 which I think is very nice.
So next lesson was in her home instead, on her private acoustic upright and it worked just fine. I played a Nocturne on it but both me and my teacher agreed that it was a hopeless idea to try to play Beethoven's Appassionata on it, which is my major project right now. I went to a lesson recently where the only piano provided was a low budget Casio and it was absolutely horrible. Personally I don't like the Casios at all. It has a good action similar to an acoustic grand - yes, there is a slight difference to an acoustic, but not more than that I can easily adapt to an acoustic. I have a high-end digital (Yamaha Clavinova, digital baby grand) and I play classical music on it all the time. if you where instead of me, would you buy something like Kawai VPC1 or Roland RD800, aiming to practice mass of hours of classical music on it, or would you just make more efforts to spend more time with yours acoustic piano, and keep the digital piano for non classical music. do you think that there is a digital piano that can replace the real thing?Ģ. I can even play jazz on a digital piano and feel OK about that If an acoustic piano is not available at the moment, I can also practise solfege and harmony and nights with it, I definitely still think it is a very usefull instrument.īut at the end, I'm coming here with those thoughts, to ask you, experienced and advanced classical pianist, what do you think about al that?ġ. Keep the digital piano for popular music and progressive rock, that's what it built for.ĥ. Maybe my Casio is really OK for a digital Piano, maybe it would be a waste of money to buy a more advanced digital piano that pretend to be more realistic, and eventually won't feel like a real one anyway.Ĥ. I have to devote more time to my acoustic piano.ģ. Forget about the dream of playing bach and chopin at nights with headphones.Ģ.
#PLAYABLE VIRTUAL PIANO UPGRADE#
My teacher saying no digital piano can give you the experience of a real one, not even close, he says even the most expansive and high end digital piano can't give you that.Īt the begining I tought maybe to upgrade for a better digital piano but after a some research on digital pianos that's what I'm starting to think:ġ. I have to mention that at least half of the time I practice on my upright acoustic piano, and before I bought my Casio I practiced only on my acoustic piano for eight years. Now I had progressed some more and I'm starting to feel again that Pianoteq sound is Odd and the action is also Odd. Than after a year of progress I started to feel something odd with the sound, so I bought Pianoteq and that kept me feeling OK with my Casio for a period. When I bought my digital piano I had a dream to practise classical pieces at the nights with headphones. As my classical piano technique continues to progress, I starting to fill that I can't really play classical music on my digital piano, especially not Bach.
