Yamaha GHS (Yamaha P45, P125 and DGX670): The DDP-80 action feels heavier than the dual sensor GHS action in these Yamahas; as far as which one feels better or is more realistic? I’d have to have them side by side to say for sure, but they are both very good actions. I do have to admit though that the Yamaha GHS is of a noticeably higher build quality (it’s super solid)

Do the legs/does the stand come attached? I want to know if the legs can be screwed off and I can store it without the legs when its not in use. We're in 'home keyboard' territory here and the Piaggero is Yamaha's attempt to corner every need, offering sufficient piano performance with enough variety of sound and a keyboard action for those looking to get into broader keyboard/organ/synth playing, too.This is REALLY where the DDP-80 gets super unique AND super interesting; once again, just like an acoustic piano – the DDP-80 has ONE sound – PIANO. It doesn’t have grand piano, bright piano, mellow piano, electric piano, strings, etc – just PIANO. So for people who just want to play piano, this is kind of cool; you don’t have 20, 60 or 800 sounds to distract you from your piano playing. And since there is only one sound, that pretty much tells you that, just like an acoustic piano, there are no layering features or splitting features on the DDP-80. This is played on an 88-note keyboard with a progressive hammer action, so the low-end keys feel a little heavier than the top-end ones, as you’d find on a real grand piano. Finally, there are two downward-firing built-in speakers that are powered by a 2 x 20W amplifier. Roland FP-10 digital piano review: Performance & verdict

headphone port, 1/4″ (summed mono) line out port, USB to host port, generic 1/4″ sustain pedal input, proprietary triple pedal input ( portable triple pedal unit is included!) This product comes with a MIDI USB interface. You can input the MIDI signal of the piano into the computer, and then get the filtered sound you want on the music editing software of the computer, but this sound cannot be played from the speaker of the piano. Donner's choice to go with just the 1 piano sound and very minimal controls makes it clear who their target audience is. Roland PHA4 (Roland FP-10, FP-30x): I think it has a similar weight, but since this is only a dual sensor, the Roland triple sensor action with escapement, will still be a much more realistic action Moving down from the keyboard itself, each of the four legs, and the pedal housing are all made of metal. With that said, they are all coated in a layer of paint which matches the wood stain of the keyboard itself, and the legs have some extra wood grain style textures in them to keep up the look. In the end, unless its user is some form of wood purist, the DDP-80’s all-wooden facade looks beautiful and will easily become a talking point of any space it is displayed within.There's been an upswell in home pianos, all trying to get the balance right between price, size and weight and features. 'Faking' a piano feel on a keyboard isn't easy, and all the big names have their own take on how to do it best. And the sound of your new keyboard is as much dependant on the amp and speakers on board as it is the quality of the sampling and sound source used.
