Digital is sound generation and processing based on digital signal processing rather than analogue circuitry. It is used for precise control, stable tuning, patch memory, and complex sound design that would be difficult to achieve with purely analogue systems. For example, a digital instrument might be used to create detailed evolving textures or realistic emulations while storing and recalling complete sound setups instantly.
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.
A sequencer is a tool used to record, arrange, and play back musical events in a defined order. It allows notes, rhythms, and parameter changes to be programmed step by step or recorded in real time, creating structured patterns and loops. Sequencers are used to keep multiple instruments in sync, build evolving arrangements, and automate movement within a sound. For example, a sequencer might be used to create a repeating bass pattern while gradually changing filter or modulation values to add variation over time.
A synthesizer is an electronic instrument that generates and shapes sound using oscillators, filters, envelopes, and modulation sources. It allows sounds to be created from scratch, altered in real time, and controlled through keys, sequencers, or external controllers. Synthesizers are used to produce everything from basses and leads to pads, textures, and experimental sound design in both studio production and live performance.
