Each wooden key pivots smoothly on a balance pin - the ends rising and falling to replicate the familiar 'seesaw' motion of an acoustic piano action. When pressed, the back of the key lifts, triggering a grade-weighted hammer to strike a pressure switch. The amount of force applied to this switch is then measured, and the corresponding note played with authentic tonal character and volume.<B>Extra-long key length, Extra-long pivot length</B>In addition to featuring extended, fully wooden keys, Grand Feel keyboard actions also boast some of the longest key pivot lengths - matching that of a Kawai grand piano.This extended key pivot length provides a more evenly balanced touch weight from the front to the rear of each key, allowing greater fluency and expressive control, while also minimizing the need to readjust one's technique when playing an acoustic grand piano.<B>88-key Graded Counterweights</B>In addition to grade-weighted hammers, the Grand Feel III action also features metal counterweights, attached beneath each key, and graded across the length of the keyboard.As with an acoustic piano, these additional weights help to balance the touch of the keyboard during pianissimo passages, while providing a feeling of greater substance and solidity when playing with force.<B>Triple sensor key detection</B>The Grand Feel III keyboard action also features an accurate triple-sensor key detection system for enhanced playing realism.The added third sensor improves responsiveness when playing the same key repeatedly, and unlike conventional two sensor keyboard actions found in many digital pianos, allows the sound of a single note to be gradually 'layered' without the previous tone being lost.In...
