Alo, with a keyboard (and MIDI), you can't raise the volume of a note after it's started playing - which you can do with any stringed or sind instrument. OK, you get a swell pedal on most church organs, but that raises the volume of everything.

MIDI doesn't even fully cover a real piano by fluffy (4.00 / 2) #35 Sun Apr 13, 2008 at 12:03:05 PM EST
The damper pedal is just on and off, rather than a continuous motion like on a real thing.  It doesn't matter most of the time but it's nice to be able to do a nice fizzly slow muting of the strings or whatever.  Same goes for the individual keys, as well.
