Piano Quizzes Online & Trivia

How is it F can someone explain Im not really new to this i still need help ???

It’s not surprising that digital pianos and keyboards are similar but different. A digital piano was designed to feel, look, and sound like a traditional piano and to give the player a more authentic playing experience. Digital pianos were also designed to be portable, have digital effects, and computer connectivity. They are available in standard, upright and stage type pianos. In contrast, keyboards were not designed to imitate or look like real pianos. Instead, a keyboard is much lighter in weight and focuses on creating many different “electronically devised and synthesized sounds”.

This is a bit of an odd question and I’m not sure I understand what is being asked. Most grand pianos have 88 keys, spanning 7 and 1/3 octaves. Keyboards with 76 keys are available for purchase and these span about 6 1/3 octaves. Therefore, there would be no reason to have to play two keyboards, as long as you’re playing one with 88 keys. If you’re playing on a keyboard with 76 keys, chances are you won’t miss the bass and treble octaves because they are located at the far left and far right of the piano.

You can purchase a keyboard with 32 keys on Amazon.com for $22.99. A keyboard this small is really best for children. Otherwise, keyboards will range from about $50 to $800 for various size keyboards, depending on the number of keys and the size of the keys. Some keyboards don’t have “normal” size keys, rather they have “mini” size keys. More expensive keyboards will have full-sized hammer-action keys in order to provide a more authentic playing experience. A keyboard for a professional musician can cost several thousands of dollars.

A keyboard can be plugged into a guitar amplifier but I believe most experts will advise you not to do so because most guitar amps are designed specifically for guitars and not for keyboards. For example, a guitar amp is not designed to handle low frequencies and as a result if you’re not careful, you can destroy the speakers. Also most guitar amps will not handle high frequencies either and so the sound will be a bit dull. But, if you research the type of amp (open or closed backs), its frequencies, amps, etc., and if you really know what you’re doing, it is possible.

What I find fascinating is that a keyboard “with extensive polyphonic capabilities and sufficient instrument voices can mimic an entire orchestra”. In other words, a keyboard with these features can sound like many different instruments all at once. How is this possible? The keyboard is equipped with different MIDI channels, each channel independently assigned to a different instrument. MIDI is an abbreviation for Musical Instrument Digital Interface. Polyphony means the “number of actual notes a keyboard can simultaneously generate”. I’m not sure how it all works but it is based on what I suspect is fairly sophisticated and complex electronics.

People use sheet music to play the piano. Each note on the sheet music is a key on the piano. Each key should be held for a certain amount of time depending on the type of note is on the music sheet. Some notes are played together at the same time. If the notes are in a vertical line together on the sheet music, then those notes will be played at the same time. On the piano, the main note is called middle C. This key is in the very center of the keys. Then there are other lettered keys around middle C. These are the white keys. There are also black keys called sharps. Sometimes, these are played with the white keys.

F Ab Cb Some would even go so far as to want to answer F Ab B (not one the choices above). Theoretically, this would be incorrect, since Ab to B is not a 3rd interval.
