is this actual string for pianos?

It is piano wire as in hard wire used in all sorts of applications. I supose it could be used for a note or two but I have no clue what note.
774913
This wire can be used for a Single note on some pianos. You have to measure the diameter of the wire and compare them. The lower notes have additional wire wrapped around them and this wire will not work unless you happen to have the means to perform the wrapping.

It is "music wire" and should be fine on a piano for the higher notes that do not have wrapped strings. It should also be fine for multiple string notes as long as the wire diameter is correct.

I don't see why this wouldn't work for pianos, because it's strength well exceeds the 33,000 psi pressure that is put on the piano harp itself. I am a piano technician and I think i will try this to save money. I read the specs and they match and exceed the same wire bought at higher prices calling themselves "piano/music wire". It's all made pretty much the same, the only difference would be the carbon and strength amounts. This one seems to be like it will work just fine. I will try it and update later.

Well, it is an electric piano, or what we call synthesizer. It have decent sounds of all kind, even though I never did tried the "piano" sound, I bet it should be awesome.

Not that I profess to be an expert, my guess is "satin". Whatever, it's a similar finish to both the piano and piano base and they match well.

As long as your piano has a 1/4" jack output, and your computer has a USB input, yes. I use this cable to connect a MicroKORG to a Mac. The downside is that it outputs to mono. However, I'm not sure if that's just because of my setup.

Yes, it is the full set, but we should all be reminded that with upscale sets of strings like this, the E String is typically a very good E string -- special and expensive wire. Usually when Reviewers rate these strings, special mention should be made regarding the appearance and tone of the E String. What? I hope I had abided by my own rule here, or this is tantamount to myself giving my own review a bad review.

No it won't.. its magnetic not magical :P Would have been an interesting sound that your searching for, had that not been the case.How else could you make a similar sound on a classical acoustic? Now that would be a fun challenge. How could you add a legit swell to one string and make it sustain as of ur not touching it?Air?

It should work, but the great thing about amazon is you can return the item if its not what you were looking for.-10 years of piano experience and a Major in Music

I am not a professional so please take it for what it is worth. I believe it has 101 sounds or more, I have the instrument packed away for the moment. I really p I've the piano sounds fantastic to me. I really am not qualified to give you the best advise pertainf this but all the instruments in the keyboard are close to what I know. Hope that helps, you probably better off soulistening to it yourself. If I get a chance to pull it out I will make a video of the sounds. Can't make promises .

I couldn't tell, as I only bought it to tune an old piano that I bought, It was fine for that. Sorry I could not be more helpful. Geoff

If it is on a stand (as opposed to the cabinet-type that is more like a real piano) it should work fine. If you have the cabinet-type, I don't know if it would have anything on the ends to keep it in place.

Hello Catherine (my Mom's name.. also spelled with a "C") Yes and No....... They are standard sized piano keys made of lite plastic.. They are "weighted" to "mimic" the "feel" of real keys.. there are 61 not 88... as this is a keyboard. It is missing some "octaves"... not an issue for general playing .. the unit has good "note" sound reproduction.. I bought it mainly for the CASIO song "learning system" witch is first rate I have a full sized "high end" YAMAHA digital piano...which is my main instrument ... but, they cost many, many times this Casio . A necessity ONLY if you want to be "serious player". REC III

Deana, it is weighted meaning that softly tapping produces a softer note than slamming/pounding (so to speak). The amount of pressure placed on the keys affects to volume of the sound being produced. However, it is, of course, not a real piano. It's electronically produced sound as opposed to a mallet striking a wire. But, yes, it plays like a real piano. The clicks and annoyances spoken of in other reviews are legit, but they don't bother me.

I bought this for playing piano, I would think this is loud enough. BTW, this metronome also has a blinking light at the set speed.

It does, but it's like a sewing machine pedal. It works, but it's crappy. Nothing like a real piano. I bought a separate one.

No. It's just a controller keyboard. It's made to be used with any midi sounds module or a computer running music software. There may be general midi sounds in your computer that you could trigger with the keyboard. This is all very complicated for a beginner. Yamaha and Casio make very good low cost pianos. Roland and Korg are also make great keyboards.

I am not sure because my real piano is out of tune but this one sounds OK to me

No there are not. There are not follow along songs and this is not a training keyboard. It is a piano replacement and the music that comes with it is not for beginners.
