How does an electronic piano work?

Electronic pianos work similarly to analog synthesizers in that they generate their tones through oscillators, whereas electric pianos are mechanical, their sound being electrified by a pickup and then amplified through an internal or external amplifier.

Is a digital piano good for beginners?

While it's impossible to entirely simulate the experience of playing on an acoustic piano, there's nothing wrong with starting on a digital piano for beginners. In fact, a quality digital piano would be much better than an old out-of-tune acoustic piano with sticky or broken keys!

Do digital pianos feel like real pianos?

Producing near-genuine sounds is great, but is a digital piano as good as a real piano in terms of feel? Well, for the most part, yes. This of course depends on the quality and specs of a particular digital piano, but many brands manufacture their products with weighted or semi-weighted keys.

What is the difference between a digital piano and a digital keyboard?

Digital pianos, as their name implies, are designed specifically to have the sound and feel of acoustic pianos — and sometimes to look like them as well. Digital keyboards, on the other hand, typically offer a wider range of sounds, but rarely have the feel or look of an acoustic piano.
