Frequently Asked Questions
The velocity response is adequate for learning but lacks the subtlety and dynamic range of a higher-end digital piano; it's a trade-off for the budget-friendly price.
Yes, the USB to Host functionality makes MIDI recording straightforward using compatible software, but you’ll need a separate audio interface for recording the sounds.
While the app enhances the learning experience with interactive lessons, the keyboard functions perfectly well without it; it's a supplemental tool, not a requirement.
