The Important stuff

1985. Keyboard — Keyboard refers to electronic keyboards used for playing, composing, and performing music, ranging from simple digital keyboards to advanced synthesizer-based instruments. On SynthForSale, keyboards include instruments designed for studio production, live performance, and home use, often featuring velocity-sensitive keys, built-in sounds, MIDI connectivity, and integration with computers and other hardware. They are commonly used across electronic, pop, ambient, film, and experimental music, and can function as standalone instruments or as controllers for software and modular setups.. Portable — Portable keyboards and pianos are lightweight, compact instruments designed for easy transport without sacrificing playability. They deliver a wide range of sounds, built-in features, and practice tools, making them popular with beginners, students, and travelling musicians. Many models include battery operation, onboard speakers, and connectivity options, so you can play anywhere — at home, on stage, or on the move. Despite their smaller size, portable instruments often feature weighted or touch-sensitive keys for expressive playing. Perfect for learning, rehearsing, or performing, portable keyboards and pianos combine convenience with versatility.. Stereo — Stereo is a two-channel sound format that uses separate left and right signals to create a sense of width and space. It is used to place sounds across the listening field, making music feel more immersive and detailed. For example, a stereo synth or effect can spread a pad or texture across both channels, giving a track greater depth and separation compared to a mono signal. .
