DP-6 Digital Piano by Gear4music + Accessory Pack

Product Information

You’re getting the small details of a piano. Except with the DP-6, it’s paired with the convenience of digital. That means being able to simply plug in your headphones and practise in total silence. Because no one else has to hear it – you can get more practice in. Though if you do want to get heard, there’s two built-in speakers to deliver stereo sound. Most models normally have key ranging from 76 to 88. A beginner will possibly need 76 keys. However, a more advanced player should opt for the 88-key digital pianos. An acoustic piano usually has 88 keys. Sustain Pedal Perfect for the modern musician, the DP-6 comes complete with a wide range of connectivity options. With USB to host you can connect to your computer and use it as a MIDI controller, giving you access to a whole range of technology to continue your creativity. With the line in, your piano becomes more than an instrument. You can even take advantage of its high-quality speakers and play an external sound source from them to enjoy. Or, you can increase your volume by connecting to an amplifier, interface, or mixer with the line out. Expand your playing

There are few types of digital pianos which buyers can choose from. The models vary in terms of their features, the quality of music that they produce, the kinds of music that they are best suited for and the amount of the player’s experience. The main types of digital pianos are: Upright Digital PianoSomething that’s often overlooked which you’ll definitely have to consider is the warranty of the instrument. The longer the warranty period the better. However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers. Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided. The Yamaha brand of digital piano has usually been one of the most effective out there, and many found that with this P-45 they were getting everything that was possibly needed right from the get-go. It’s a strong and effective piano, one that provides as many as 10 stereo-sampled voices to give you a brilliant extra level of input. Digital piano is an alternative to traditional acoustic pianos, much like the electric guitar is to acoustic guitars. However, where electric guitars also sound different, digital pianos sound exactly like their ancestors. There have been numerous concerts where digital pianos have been used instead of acoustic versions.

Gear4music have teamed up with some of the best manufacturers from around the world to develop our own line of music equipment. Our goal is to provide our customers with a wide choice of high quality, sensibly priced musical instruments. Alongside these audio connectors is a USB port. This enables you to send MIDI messages from the DP10 to your computer and vice-versa and means you could use the DP10 as a master keyboard in a studio. We'd like to have seen old-school MIDI ports as well as - or instead of - a USB port. MIDI ports are ubiquitous and would have enabled the DP10 to control other keyboards and synthesizers. The tools to develop your playing further are all here. Which includes a metronome, letting you practice different time signatures and keep your timing sharp. Because as any musician can tell you – if it’s not in time, it won’t sound like music! Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty Playing on any piano different to yours can be a bit difficult. As you continue practicing, the notes start playing unconsciously as you commit each sound to muscle memory. For that, you need to make sure you’ve bought the right piano.Few things can be more frustrating than buying something that does not fit into the space that you need it to. Before starting your search, you should measure the area that you want to place it. Digital pianos aim to reproduce the sound of an acoustic grand. Acoustic pianos come in varying levels of quality and can produce vastly different tones. A high quality digital piano can be nearly indistinguishable from a concert grand, whereas a cheap acoustic will normally sound far worse than a digital piano. Many would argue that there is no way a compact keyboard or tabletop piano such as the DP-6 can compare to a full-sized keyboard. This is exactly why we are reviewing this piano today, as it claims to be able to compete in the big leagues with some of the most expensive pianos out there (the Steinway D-274). The stage pianos can be hooked up to external speakers, amps and a wide range of electronic accessories that are geared towards live performances. If you are putting on a live show and you wish to make it a spectacle, then stage pianos are the best choice. Workstation

This is a really well built piano, and I think it looks simple but elegant. I like the clean and sharp lines of the control panel, and everything looks really stylish and modern. It would look great in the home and wouldn’t take up too much space – which is exactly what every digital piano maker is trying to accomplish these days. LIGHTWEIGHT AND STYLISH – The matte surface shows texture without losing fashion. The piano body (not including the wooden stand) weighs only 10.5kg/23lbs and is 25% thinner than the old versions. If nothing else - learning to play piano should be fun. That’s why the DP-6 makes it easier to learn your favourite songs too. A transposing function lets you can take a song you want to learn and move it into an easier to play key.

Included Accessories

It isn’t too heavy and could easily be carried upstairs by a couple of people and assembled in a bedroom. Sometimes it’s the little things which help motivate us to practice, and the fact that you could wake up every morning, pop your headphones in and play without disturbing anyone could make all the difference. The stereo headphone and line outputs on the DP-6 make playing on headphones a pleasure, as well as providing a professional sound for stage use. MIDI in and out and USB out connections enable connection to PC or Mac computers, permitting use of the DP-6 as a master PC keyboard or a sound module. With so many pianos players out there and an equally large number of ways to learn the piano, it is no surprise that a new piano model comes out every now and then. Each new model boasts more features, better sound, and of course, more class.

If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered If you want to play on the stage, then you might have to look into a machine classifying itself as a stage piano. Even if it does not have the exact description, ensure that you get a model that is able to connect to a high quality amp. If you want to get into the production of music then a piano or synthesizer that’s full of varying sounds, USB and MIDI connectivity, and a bunch of mixing and editing features will probably be your ideal choice. Things like key action and speaker quality won’t be of great importance to you. You will not even need a piano with a full 88 keys. VERSATILE FUNCTIONALITY – The 1.3 inch display with multi-function direct buttons makes this keyboard easy to use. Supports microphones for karaoke or practice, and even has a dual-tone mode for combining two voices together. The user will also have the option of hooking up to the computer. A digital piano has a MIDI interface that means the player can connect the piano to his computer or other MIDI devices and then take advantage of numerous music programs that allow the musician to compose the digital music. Considerations before buyingBut at the price range, that is not something to complain about considering that you get the sound and feel of a grand piano at a fraction of the cost. If you’re looking to invest in a quality piece of piano hardware without breaking your bank, the DP-6 can be the perfect choice for you. Setting the piano up is simple; just plug in the power cord, press the power button on the left, and start playing!
