      wtf? It’s not gatekeeping. You can be a pianist and only be able to afford a keyboard, it just means you play the piano elsewhere like at school or some community centre. Piano is very different to keyboard, and if you can afford a very high end keyboard that has touch sensitivity etc then this argument makes no sense.

      @@kamrondames1226yes still cant play most dynamics and repeated notes technique is also hard if not impossible i tought. Also you dont need a pedal on a keyboard because the keyboard already sounds sustained (if thats the right word not native english speaker). I remember playing on a keyboard with a pedal and i didnt push the pedal once. My muscle memory also failed me somehow because it is just so different, there is no push back from the keys. I couldnt play any advanced stuf on it.
      Tbh i only refer to people being a pianist if they have a degree in it or at least on the same lvl as someone that has a degree otherwise someone can touch the piano once and call himself a pianist. I think the meaning of the word is up to interpretation but i still like to point out how different a keyboard to a piano really is.

      I have an acoustic piano and an electric piano. If the keys are weighted, and it's assembly includes the three pedals then I've always known them to be electric pianos. The electric piano only gets played when I need to practice with headphones. If the instrument has many voice options and only has an adapter for the sustain pedal then it's merely a keyboard. Real performing pianists perform on pianos. But, honestly I think only legitimate pianists would agree.

      Right! I was like ok, but isn’t that a little classist? A good keyboard is a lot cheaper than a grand piano, and many have petals and high sensitivity to mimic the quality of a piano, most people start of playing on a keyboard and learn on a keyboard, and are able to use those skills and transfer them to an actual piano when needed, they don’t all just “turn down the volume” lmfao. Yes, the experience is different, but we still call someone who plays electric violin a violinist despite the fact that it is easier. There are ways to be a keyboardist, depending on the style and technique you use to play, but if you learned pianist technique and you can do everything on an actual piano, my guy, you are just a pianist. Same with the midi controller player. Is andrew haung any less a trained pianist when he is using a midi controller vs a real piano? No! The instrument does not make the music, the musician makes the music, and I think some people need to remember that.

      It absolutely does make you not a pianist. People who play acoustic or electric pianos are pianists. People who play keyboards are no more pianists than people who play the church organ are pianists. They are different instruments, played differently mechanically and musically to achieve different effects. It's just idiotic snobbery from some pianists or insecurity from some keyboard players that framed acknowledge the differences as somehow implying one is better or more respectable than the other. They are equally valid. That doesn't make them the same thing.

    Truly, they are just merely tools to create beats, tunes that we love to hear. Playing any technical tools are hell, but in exchange for fine fine beats, is worth it. Its just that traditional pianos were the only option at that time that we human can use it to play beautiful rythms. But we should reminded that Bartolomeo Cristofori did not create the piano just for the existence of a tool to play tunes, but an oppurtuniy for new ideas. Indeed a great invention of its time.

    As a kid I played the organ, then synths in the eighties. When I started learning piano I was like, "What is this strange device that can't hold or bend a note and pushes back on my fingers?" After learning some boogie woogie riffs and playing for a weekend showing of Grease: "I can't move my left hand anymore! WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY LEFT HAND?!?"
    BTW, I now gig with both a weighted piano keybed and a synth. I play so hard that I still bleed after most every show, and I love it.

      a piano is a type of keyboard. the keyboard is a keyboard. piano is acoustic, while keyboards are electric.
      this is an issue of differing instruments. however, both can still be called pianist. just like how a person who plays a soprano flute can call themself a flutist or soprano flutist (to avoid confusion), it works the same way with keyboard players and pianists. think of marimbas, bells, vibraphones… they’re all forms of keyboards as well, but you wouldn’t call them keyboard players.

      A pianist is not only someone who knows how to play piano, but someone who plays it on an everyday basis and/or exclusively plays it. If you practice with a keyboard, you’re a keyboardist because that’s the instrument you own. If you practice with a piano, you’re a pianist.
      the weight of the keys would be too different, so a keyboardist would not do so great without practice or proper piano lessons. the keyboardist would need a lot of time to get used to the dynamics changing by pressing keys softer or harder as well because it's not as easy when you're not used to it.
      I am a pianist and I for the love of god cannot play the keyboard. The keys are too light and it causes me to make too many mistakes, and the songs I play are not accustomed for the keyboard.
      It’s not to say you can’t be both, though, but people are mixing the two up I feel.

    There are keyboards that are weighted (meaning the notes are as heavy as normal piano keys) and keyboards that are touch sensitive (meaning the harder/softer you press the keys the volume changes) and put these together on an 88 key keyboard, add some pedals, and that keyboard can do everything a piano can (except projection)
