A keyboard is not a synthesizer itself, but it can be used to control a synthesizer. A synthesizer is an electronic instrument that generates sound through the manipulation of various factors such as frequency, phase, and envelope. It often includes a keyboard as a means of input, but it can also be controlled by other means like MIDI controllers or even your computer. The keyboard keys send note and velocity data to the synthesizer, which then creates the sound. So, while a keyboard is often part of a synthesizer, it is not the synthesizer itself.

Digital pianos use recorded sounds and advanced technology to replicate the sound of acoustic pianos as closely as possible. Some high-end digital pianos can sound very real, while others may sound less authentic. It mostly depends on the quality of the specific digital piano.

A piano’s lifespan can vary greatly depending on the type of piano, its quality, and how well it’s maintained. Upright pianos typically last between 40 to 70 years, while grand pianos can last even longer, often between 50 to 80 years. High-quality pianos that are well-maintained and used less frequently can last over a century. Conversely, low-quality pianos or those that are not well-maintained may only last 20 to 30 years.

Your digital piano might sound bad due to several reasons such as:
1. Incorrect setup: Ensure that your digital piano is set up correctly, with all cables properly connected and the power on.
2. Incorrect volume or equalizer settings: Check the volume and equalizer settings on both the piano and the amplifier or speaker system you’re using.
3. Faulty speakers or headphones: If you’re using external speakers or headphones, they might be faulty. Try connecting your piano to a different speaker or headphone system to see if the problem persists.
4. Dirty or damaged keys: Over time, the keys on your digital piano can become dirty or damaged, affecting the sound quality. Check the keys for any debris or damage and clean them if necessary.
5. Outdated software: If your digital piano has software that can be updated, it might be due for an update. Check

The best way to learn piano is what works best for you personally. Some people prefer self-teaching, while others prefer a more structured learning environment with a teacher or a course. Self-teaching can be a great option if you’re motivated, have a clear idea of what you want to learn, and are able to identify and correct your own mistakes. It can also be more flexible and cost-effective. On the other hand, having a teacher can provide structure, feedback, and motivation, and can be especially helpful for beginners or those who need more guidance. There are also many online courses and apps that can provide a middle ground between self-teaching and having a teacher.

Yes, it is possible to connect a Bluetooth device to a PA system, provided that the PA system has Bluetooth connectivity or an appropriate Bluetooth receiver is available. You would need to follow the general steps below:
1. Make sure the PA system is compatible with Bluetooth or has a Bluetooth receiver. This information should be available in the user manual or from the manufacturer’s website.
2. If the PA system does not have Bluetooth, purchase a compatible Bluetooth receiver that can connect to the PA system’s audio input.
3. Activate the Bluetooth pairing mode on both the PA system (or the Bluetooth receiver) and the Bluetooth device you want to connect. This process will vary depending on the specific models of your devices but usually involves pressing and holding a button or going through a menu on the device.

Music appreciation is subjective, and it’s impossible to objectively say that Bach is better than Beethoven or vice versa. Both composers have made significant contributions to music and have large and loyal fan bases. It’s best to explore their works and form your own opinion.
