Stage pianos for beginners

If you often travel from A to B with your weighted 88 keys and a compact digital piano seems too bulky, a stage piano is the right choice. If you take an overview, you will quickly notice that wood looks and high-gloss finishes are not on the checklist, nor are built-in speaker systems. Instead, beginners and professionals alike should make sure that their stage piano is as light as possible and therefore portable, as well as robust and durable. Things can get a little tougher in the hectic everyday life on stage. One or two scratches are inevitable. The large selection of different sounds and presets should also be pre-programmed for beginners. Common stage pianos such as the Kawai MP-7 SE but also the Korg SV-1 88 already have various grand piano sounds and a versatile selection of electric pianos (Fender Rhodes, Wurlitzer piano, etc.), organ sounds (Hammond) as well as one or two synthesizer and string sound. The built-in range of effects (phaser, flanger, rotary speaker and various amp models) round off the sound selection. pitch and modulation wheels as well as the practical split and layer functions are also included in the entry-level price segment between € 1,300 and € 1,500.
