Is it a good recorder for acoustic piano? I'm looking for a recorder to playback pieces, not for publishing, just for learning.

If you just need something to listen to then it might be useful. Most of the use as been for lectures at school in my case. For your purposes, I wonder if there are programs that convert the recording into musical notes like how Dragon does dictation into written words, have one that does music sheets from the recording or shows music graphics on tghe computer from the recording.

I haven't actually recorded piano music without singing, but it works fine for accompanied singing. However, you must transfer the recording to a computer with a good speaker system. The speakers in the recorder are, to be generous, almost useless.

This recorder has several recording modes and I have found them to be very, very good. I'm sure if you selected the right mode for your environment you would be pleased with the results.

I really don't know. I'm not a musician by any means but it really does an excellent job of recording conversations. As a comment, I certainly don't think it would do any harm in buying it. You can always use it.

I haven't used it for that purpose, however, it has picked up music in the background of my recordings very clearly. I would keep the recorder at a bit of a distance from the piano, since having it very close tends to "fuzz" the recording a bit.

I owned one that i'm using for a classroom lectures for one semester already and all i can say is it's has a very clear reception 25 ft from the teacher.

Good day Ed.. Songwriter is fun and productive to use if you need to print out quality sheet music, use MIDI device and saveaudio files for the money $$ it's really hard to beat. If you need to compare Finale $$$ go to Finale's websiteand look at product compare information. Also, use your manual and online instructions for the best results.Enjoy, Joseph

i am not sure of specifics but what i record into the recorder sounds as good as the original. the mic pick up is amazing for recording a piano from across the room. i consider piano recording as the holy grail of recording, very hard to get it right but this recorder does a great job!! i have also recorded albums, cassettes and even an old 8-track and they have all sounded very good!!

If you plan to transition to a real acoustic piano, I would go with something with weighted keys, something like Casio's Privia PX-130. Otherwise, I imagine you will become very frustrated.

Hey Jonathan, this is an awesome mic. No recorder needed. But if your recording from far away a recorder would be best. I do a lot of interviews with mine and it works great.

I would definitely say "No." Read my review of the NP-30. If you are just learning correct hand technique on the piano, you'll find yourself under- or -overreaching for keys if you try to transition to an acoustic piano. If you can swing the extra money, the best "real piano" experience on a digital for the price, imo, is the yamaha YDP 140.

OFF TOPIC, but I have really gotten unexpected value from the voice recorder - I'm something of a community activist, attend board meetings etc. and find the recorder to be more than adequate to 'tape" meetings - I load the .wav files in Audacity and export as .mp3's - lose a little volume but very compact and portable after that.

My realization is that there is not substitute for continuos practice and music study. My experience with the Yamaha Education Suite (YES) has been limited, in part because whitout previous trainning it is difficult to take advantage of it. In summary, my opinion is that piano lessons are a requisite and the YES is a complement.

Yes. Everyday I record acoustically from my digital piano using four stereo channels, eight condenser microphones with different characteristics. One stereo track from large-diaphragm condenser mics is for vocals, but picks up piano selectively. I set equalization and use feedback to give my digital piano a super-Steinway sound. The TASCAM DP-24 is an excellent instrument for expressing your creativity. Phantom power can be selected to each of two banks of mics.

Hey, so I really like finale, it is a really great software. At first it was a little hard getting use to but it is getting easier now, I only really write for the piano so I haven't experimented the other settings, but I believe that it can write songs for guitar, violin, flute. And others, I'm not 100 percent, because I don't use those settings, but it is a great software.

I have not used this product to record as of yet. I used it to assist learning some choral music with previously recorded music that I transferred to SD. But now in curious and will test it out.

This takes a lot of practice ...so "No", if you just want to play some musics. Recorders are much much easier to play for everyone. Hope this helps.

the px100 is great as far as keyboard touch goes, and if you are a beginner I'd say it's fine to learn on. I would prefer an upright with good touch, generally yamaha or steinway only, but if you are looking between this keyboard and a crummy upright, I'd go with the keyboard. 3.5mm regular headphone jack X2-13 years as a competitive pianist

Yes. My husband is a trained sound engineer and musician, and I am a piano/vocalist. We are more than happy with this mic... would be perfect for voice over, or any need for quality recording. Try it! :)

It sounds just as good for $50 as it did on my electric. But hey! Just got the WET reverb yesterday. .. beautiful man.Biyang reverb will be fine with acoustic electric/electric till you get something better! Hope this helps!
