I'm just beginning to learn to play the piano, so it's time to buy one.
I'd like to buy a digital piano, but there are zillions of them out there... so I'm not sure where to start looking... can someone suggest a couple??
Here is what I'm looking for:
1) I want the keys to feel the same as a real piano (size, action, weight, etc)... what is the difference between "full weighted" and "graded" keys?
2) I want to have the 3 basic piano pedals
3) Since I do some basic recording (using GuitarPro), I'd like a USB output from the keyboard.
4) I'd like lots of synth sounds (strings, horns, maybe a built in drum machine, etc) to help with recording... I presume that there is a big difference between keyboards on the sound quality here... comments?
5) a full 88 keys would be nice
7) I'd like to keep it under $750 or so
Any suggestions?
thanks!
