Cheers Mark, that's kinda what I thought - that it had to be special MIDI files. I love the DGX, but this was one of the main features I bought it for - it being able to score any MIDI file and provide me with the music on board. I am tempted to swap it for the YDP 131 now that this feature isn't ac...

Cheers. Do you reckon there's different types of MIDI files? I think the DGX needs MIDI files which have chord fingering added to them, so it can do the lesson.

Paid £430 for it from a local store, with the 2 year warranty. Cheapest I saw it online was about £390 + £35 P&P, but I wasn't too sure about the company, with their 'if anything goes wrong send it back at your own cost' blurb on the website. Could probably have got it a wee bit cheaper from els...

Cheers Mark. The DGX620 does look great as I like the idea of weighted keys. I spoke to my local music shop today and the guy suggested the Yamaha NP30, as it's cheaper but has weight keys too.

Thanks Mark. I'm looking for something that will enable me to learn to play properly. I want to learn to play the piano, not a synthesizer, so want something that will give me the right feel for that. The Yamaha models you posted above look absolutely perfect, but are a bit expensive. Ultimately, I ...

This digital piano any good?

Hi all. I play the guitar, but now want to learn the piano. I don't have much of a budget for my first digital piano/keyboard. I was only wanting to spend around £200, but saw this at a local shop and was wondering if someone knew whether it's a bit dodgy. Intermusic is the make apparently. http://w...
