What to Consider When Buying a Digital Piano
Portability
One of the biggest considerations to take into account is deciding whether you just need something to play at home or an instrument that can head to the practice space or stage. Options like the Yamaha Arius YDP-184 and Kawai KDP110 Digital Pianos offer both sturdy construction and a solid emulation of sitting at a real piano, while picks like Roland RD-2000 and Korg SV-1 Vintage Stage Pianos are, well, made for the stage and lugging in and out of venues.
Number of Keys, Key Sensitivity/Response
As a rule of thumb, if you want to get as close as possible to emulating an actual acoustic piano, you need 88 keys, and you need them to be weighted. You're not going to get a perfect simulation of the feel and response of a real piano key (at least until technology makes it possible), but weighted keys and a hammer effect will get you a good bit of the way towards the real deal.
Some well-reviewed options for beginners and seasoned players alike include the Casio Privia PX-160 and Roland FP-30.
Built-In Modes and Onboard Effects
Worried you might be bored with just one sound in one instrument? A digital piano with multiple voicings is the cure. Most digital pianos come with at least a few different onboard options (organ, '80s synth, etc.), but some in particular are built to offer tonal textural flexibility. Nord built its name on powerful piano, organ, and synth engines all in one package, and their Stage 3 Compact and Stage 2 HA (Hammer Action) are popular choices.
