Korg Pa588 – During year 2008, Korg introduced Pa588, a cross-over of an arranger (the acclaimed Pa500) and a digital stage piano, with the 88-note graded-weighted RH3 keyboard, built-in speakers, and a piano sample. It came with piano stand included, and featured Pa-Series compatibility.
A digital piano is a type of electronic keyboard instrument designed to serve primarily as an alternative to the traditional acoustic piano, both in how it feels to play and in the sound it produces.

A typical, full-size organ manual consists of five octaves, or 61 keys. Piano keyboards, by contrast, normally have 88 keys; some electric pianos and digital pianos have fewer keys, such as 61 or 73 keys. Some smaller electronic organs may have manuals of four octaves or less (25, 49, 44, or even 37 keys).
The lowest pitch (frequency: 27.5 Hz) of an 88-key piano is equivalent to a sub contrabass in the range name.

While modern synthesizer keyboards commonly have either 61, 76 or 88 keys, small MIDI controllers are ...
Piano simulation: A common feature of the digital piano, stage piano, and high-end workstations that allows real-time simulation of a sampled piano sound. It provides various piano-related effects, such as room reverberation, sympathetic resonance , piano lid position (as on a grand piano), and settings to adjust the tuning and overall sound ...
KORG has since diversified into digital effects, tuners, recording equipment, electronic hand percussion, and software instruments.

An electric piano is a musical instrument that has a piano-style musical keyboard, where sound is produced by means of mechanical hammers striking metal strings or reeds or wire tines, which leads to vibrations which are then converted into electrical signals by pickups (either magnetic, electrostatic, or piezoelectric).
The pedal piano (or pedalier piano) [12] is a kind of piano that includes a pedalboard [13] There are two types of pedal piano: A pedal board integrated with a manual piano instrument, using the same strings and mechanism as the manual keyboard; An independent, pedal played piano with its own mechanics and strings, placed below a regular piano
