Yes it does. This is how it handles MIDI and connections to the computer. It is underneath the piano.

I think you have to make sure that it is plugged in somewhere underneath the piano . Its not very loud and it pops out so easy from under there. My son did not care after awhile he just keep singing and entertaining us,lol.

Yes, it does. However I'd like to add while it is touch sensitive, I was lead to believe they are weighted somehow, but it is not at all like a real piano. More of a dampening, the key feels like it is going through foam or something to make you hit light or hard for the correct tone loudness. More difficult to get a light or heavy struck note. I'm no musician, but was disappointed by the touch sensitivity mechanism. For the price, if your not a pro, it is a good value though. Display is also too small for my old eyes.

Nightingale sums it up nicely; I use my keyboard the same way. Useful for carrying around, sitting under a tree somewhere, testing out theory, little chords, ditties, whatever. But no, it cannot replace a real piano -- and not just because of the sound or limited keyboard. Those keys are about half the size of real piano keys. For the size and price, you can't expect it to sound like the real thing. It does an adequate job and would make a great TOY for a kid, but it cannot replace the real thing.NOTE TO Susan Prior -- where did you find a case for transporting it? I'm in the process of MAKING one from scratch because I didn't think cases were available for something this size. Nightingale sums it up nicely; I use my keyboard the same way.

Probably not, unless your upright piano is an older style that still has a music desk with a full piece of wood backing that your music rests against. You need the vertical piece of wood to clamp it onto.

I do not use it to tune a complete piano. I use it to tune certain notes and I find that I have to tune the top and bottom octaves by ear. It does not work well there. Just to "touch up" certain strings, it works great.

The keys action is very different to a "real" piano. It takes a while to master it for expression. Depending on your use it might work.I use it for practice only. If you need to practice and them play a "real" piano afterward I would not advise it. The sounds are great if you use headphones.

I have my speakers in my studio where its virtually dust free. But I guess it should work on the piano as its a very good weave and quite thick too. Sound is amazing thru this fabric. No loss.

That's what I bought it for. So far have only used sheet music on it so can't answer how much weight it can handle. The depth depends on how your digital piano is sloped with the controls. I would buy it and just see how it fits.

Yes. It really just requires some minimal assembly. After that, just turn on the power and start playing. It doesn't have a lot of the features that you would typically find on a keyboard. It it more like playing an acoustic piano. You don't even need to learn how to change to the different instruments if you don't want to. I'd highly recommend it for someone wanting to learn to play the piano without all the bells and whistles of an electronic keyboard.

I play acoustic piano. On gigs, I use it to play bass/drums rhythm tracks and it does well. I plan to get another and chain them for a fuller sound, but one has been enough for me so far.

I use it in my solo shows, piano and sr-18. I use two pedals, one fill one start/stop. I match up the patterns to my songlist and make note of the bpm on my ipad.

I have mine in a keyboard case and have to take it out. I don't think it would work in any type of case. Recommend putting a rubber band around it. I have mine hooked up to a power cord when playing and secure the cord with velcrow to the stand for extra security.

I believe the clip part of it would open up enough to clip on the music rack of a grand piano. As for spinet/studio pianos...don't think you would have aaa place to mount the light to...BUT, if that is the piano style you have, you could buy a small piece of ply would that is 1/4 inch thick to clip the light to...obviously the board should be as large or larger than the height of the sheet music/music books you play from.

The piano isn't really true piano tuned. If you're asking if it is true tuned middle "c" then the answer is no. It's a toy not real piano sound.

It is "music wire" and should be fine on a piano for the higher notes that do not have wrapped strings. It should also be fine for multiple string notes as long as the wire diameter is correct.
