Usually, the key and key keyboards have unweighted action, but the key keyboards have weighted action.
Keyboard action can be of various types — synth un-weighted , weighted, graded hammer action. You can learn about the various types of piano action here. Even within the weighted action, there can be variations, with the more expensive pianos having a more authentic action. Piano manufacturers are constantly trying to give you the best piano sound and the most authentic key touch on their digital keyboard instruments.
And though they have progressed a lot over the years, many pianists feel that it is still not perfect. However, with some of the most expensive digital pianos, you may have little to complain about.
They have started using the same action as found in acoustic pianos, and also use wooden keys. I know it can be confusing, and the Yamaha site also does not do a great job about making it easier to understand these terms. The GHS action is well-suited for the beginner pianist. Yamaha Pianos with GHS action have fully weighted keys, and although the action is not like the one on real acoustic pianos, the action is heavier and much better than what you find on arranger keyboards.
This mechanism provides greater accuracy and is easier to play repetitive passages faster, that is required by the experienced players.
Here, the keys are made of wood and its texture resembles the wooden keys found on top grand concert pianos. Piano teachers usually recommend graded, weighted touch keys, as on the acoustic pianos, to build proper piano playing technique. The graded hammer standard GHS action does offer such a keyboard touch. So within the same series of digital pianos, some models may have GHS action whereas some others may have GH or GH3 action depending on the price.
A beginner may not appreciate the difference between graded hammer action and weighted action, and it may not affect his playing for quite some time. This collection of pianos represents some of most trusted slabs and uprights on the market, and the hammer action behind them is a big reason why. Our Notable Casio Piano Reviews :. I also like the fact that. Like all digital pianos, the user is meant to get a simulated feeling of playing on an acoustic piano.
And the PX-S does that job quite well. On top of that, hammer response is featured here, alongside key-off simulation too. What this means is that you now have a digital piano thats reacting to your very own playing dynamics! Yamaha is another company that has great engineering. Yamaha has more experience—since they have a long tradition of grand pianos—that they have been able to develop digital hammer systems that are well liked by the public.
Overall, to get a better understanding of Graded Hammer Action , check out the short video created by Yamaha below:. This key action is much more ideal for beginners that want and need a graded and weighted feel to the keys so that they can begin to get an idea for what it must feel like to play on an acoustic piano.
The Yamaha P has replaced the Yamaha P , and continues to be a great digital piano for beginners looking to learn how to play the piano. Overall, this is a very nice digital piano that I think is great for a variety of customers, including:.
Be it GH or GHE, this is a premium weighted action that provides intermediate and advanced players with top notch accuracy when it comes to repetitive passages.
Our Notable Yamaha Piano Reviews :. The next step up in Yamaha key action is the Graded Hammer 3—and this is considered to be a bit of a higher standard. This action, beyond just having graded keys, also features a 3-sensor configuration to help better give the pianist the expressive feeling of playing on an acoustic piano. But the YDP is a special piano beyond just its key action.
Taking over for the YDP a popular digital piano in its own right , the YDP comes with three very impressive grand piano sounds. This will allow you to not just pick sounds or control the volume, but record what you play onto the app, split the keyboard in half, or layer one sound onto another.
The options are endless, and what I really like about it is that, when you use the app, everything you want to do is accessible via the click of a button, rather than trying to for example layer sounds by pushing the Voice button on the YDP and then holding down two of the keys in the second octave.
Lastly, Natural Wood keyboard refers to keys that are all cut from the same hunk of wood well, the white keys at least to completely replicate the feel of a grand piano. This keyboard actually has the same overall structure as the GH3 keyboard, but you get the special bonus of having your white keys made of wood, just like an acoustic piano.
The Yamaha P is a fantastic digital piano for so many reasons. For starters, as mentioned before, this piano features the NWX key action. On top of that, the piano sounds are wonderful. You can also use the P with the Smart Pianist app, allowing you to control the piano via your iPhone or iPad.
Connecting to your P via a USB cable and camera connector kit, the app also is a great teaching tool thanks to a feature called Chord Chart. Chord Chart analyzes songs you love that are already in your library and creates chord symbols that pop up on your screen.
What this does is allow you to play along to your favorite song, facilitating the learning experience while also having fun.
