Digital pianos are being used in studios... however the touch, no matter what the downweight, isn't the same as a piano ...nor does it reflect soft volume sensativity as well either. The Yamaha Silent Series is used in my area with great success... the touch is like a piano becase it IS the piano...check this out at your local dealer. The piano is fully digital (MIDI) and fully acoustic...the shank is stopped just before striking the string...and it sends the digital signal through fibar optic sensors... high tech stuff. :) Great for satisfying all. When the piano is slightly out of tune just put it in the digital mode and ENJOY. Ed Tomlinson
