Zoom recital in 3 months! I'll buy the Beer.
Just don't pull a Toobin...so to speak.

I think there are 2 reasons for lack of life and dynamics:I plugged it into my main HiFi here last night and was a bit underwhelmed from what I expected. Yes, I could get as much volume as I desired but without going all subjective it just seemed to lack life and dynamics? That was just using the analog/headphone output into my Marantz AV7703. I also have a Peavey guitar amp in storage that I may drag out just for grins.
Yeah, and you could play this one. Start with 1' 57'' - I'm Sure you can do this right nowZoom recital in 3 months! I'll buy the Beer.

FYI, I am a music teacher and am happy to offer suggestions if you have particular questions. I don't have the tech background to contribute to many discussions on here, so happy to help when/where I can!Bought myself a Yamaha NP-12 keyboard this week. Never played any instrument before, except for dabbling as a kid.
Always wanted to but never put together the time. It will be interesting to see if I can put much together at my age.
I wouldn't count on this, see and listen:[..] In this respect, the piano is much more difficult than the violin, even though, for a child, the opposite may be true. It doesn't do any good to look down at the fingerboard of a violin. There aren't any keys or markings, so you learn by looking at the music and building up a motor memory of where the fingers should position themselves. And, most importantly, there's only one line of music to follow.
Maybe the problem isn't your amplification. It's just a 200$ keyboard after all.I plugged it into my main HiFi here last night and was a bit underwhelmed from what I expected.

You can indeed learn a lot through the youtubes but instructional video isn't so good at telling you what your doing wrong or making suggestions that might work better with the individual. And instructional videos aren't good at asking you things and adapting the lessons accordingly.Sal, youtube can be your friend. One can learn how to do almost anything... or so my son tells me.
Sounds good to me Ray.Or, knowing Sal personally, a little bit, maybe Chico Marx surrounded by the ladies...
Yea, I'm all over youtube. Only problem so far is it's got so much available, it's hard to pick one to follow with zero experienceSal, youtube can be your friend. One can learn how to do almost anything... or so my son tells me.
Don't start with Liszt.
Not quite my style.Maybe you'll become fond of J.S. Bach.
Excellent hobby @Sal1950 I'm curious why you didn't buy a synth or keyboard with electronic sounds and more effects.
Doodski, cause I have no idea WTF I'm doing. LOLMaybe the problem isn't your amplification. It's just a 200$ keyboard after all.
How did you choose that make and model?
A good sound can help encourage you to practice.
in this price range, this Yami was supposed to be voiced from their TOTL grand piano and most reviewers complimented it on it's lifelike sound.
Yeah, I know the feeling.Doodski, cause I have no idea WTF I'm doing. LOL
No body does it like The Killer.

You lost me there, only seems like more complications? First I got to learn the keyboard, where my fingers go and how to find the notes, etc. Don't get how more voices make any of the any easier?Something with strings, trumpet and other voices will be much easier to wank away on and get results fast.
