Another week, another song in the music section. I’m pleased with my overall progress, but I’m getting tired of my crappy keyboard. The other day I played on a real piano and the experience was completely different. Keys that have weight and are velocity sensitive transform the experience from button pushing to being truly expressive. Additionally, real pianos sound remarkably like… real pianos… instead of shitty sounding samples.
Yeah, I totally agree… even ‘electric pianos’ that simulate the touch, feel, and sound of a real piano fall far short of the real thing. When I have space for one, I will have one.
