Which Keyboard Accessory Should You Own?

A keyboard stand, keyboard bag, and headphones are something that you need to consider when you buy a new digital piano keyboard.

An electronic keyboard stand gives you the convenience of “height adjustment”, which is important to maintain the right posture while playing.

A keyboard bag, on the other hand offers protection to your music keyboard from scratches and bumps. It also helps to easily carry around your portable keyboard, if needed.

Headphone is something which can be bought depending on what time of the day or night you are going to practice. If you think you would be disturbing some people around you, it is best to go in for headphones as your keyboard accessory. Adults, usually find it very helpful!

Power Adapter as a keyboard accessory is an absolute must, though you get one along with your new keyboard. But if you have misplaced one or if your current one is faulty, get it changed immediately. You will need a good power adapter to safely switch on your keyboard instrument.

As your keyboard skills become better, you will need some more of these, like the pedals which give you more control over your keyboard playing.

Finally, when you become an accomplished player, eventually you will end up owning almost all of these accessories. I am sure by then you will be getting paid for your skills and you would not mind making those investments.

 

 

 

Be Careful or You will Misplace them!

Of all things, it is the easiest to misplace your keyboard accessory!

Yes, that is a fact!

Maybe not at home, but definitely if you are playing on-stage, or playing in your school or with your friends!

The moment you take your digital piano keyboard and accessories out of your house, you risk misplacing the accessories.

That is why, it is a good practice to make a checklist of all the accessories you are carrying along with you, when you go out to perform and make sure that you come back with all of them.

You need to be extra careful after your first few performances as, in the excitement and euphoria, you will surely leave some of the accessories behind and come back. So be sure to carry a checklist!

Piano Accessories
