Abstract

The invention relates to a digital musical instrument, for example a piano or grand piano, comprising a computer, a keyboard connected with the computer, preferably a pedal, and a audio outlet, the computer being equipped with a RAM memory. For each key of the keyboard at least one starting sound is recorded in the Ram memory.
