DP-26 : For this price - unmatchable

5 years ago

I am learning piano and have chosen this instrument as my main and was very surprised.

- Case and assembly qualities are perfect. Everything is smooth and solid

- Keys are soft on touch and feel like a real piano. Hammer-action mechanism makes them bounce on release, like on a real one.

- Built-in piano samples are good. GrandPiano 1 is beautiful, but GrandPiano 2 is littly inaccurate if you play quietly.

- USB-MIDI interface works without problems. No need for special drivers and can hotplug instrument without restarting Ableton/Cubase.

- Speakers are pretty powerfull. I think one can go on stage without external speakers.

Cons? Maybe heavy... but it's because of hammer-action keys so nothing special.

For such price you get literally infinite value, it's cheaper than most smartphones

P.S. Little tip. When you will setup this keyboard, I recommend you to read manual and set touch sensitivity on 2.
