digital piano
Synthesized piano substitute
A digital piano is an electronic keyboard instrument designed to replicate the sound and feel of an acoustic piano.
Unlike synthesizers, digital pianos prioritize realistic piano tones and weighted keys that simulate hammer action.
They're popular for home practice, studio recording, and situations where a traditional piano is impractical: She bought a digital piano for her apartment because the neighbors would complain about an upright.
