Studiologic is a manufacturer of digital musical instruments like pianos, synthesizers, organs and more. The Studiologic Numa Compact 2 Digital Piano has the following characteristics:

• Digital piano with 88 semi-weighted keys (Weight that the keys of an acoustic piano have and that digital pianos try to imitate to equal the touch of the piano. The keys in the high register are heavier and in the high register less. This is different from the sensitivity on the keyboard which serves to regulate the volume of the note. But a weighted keyboard always has sensitivity in the keys) with Aftertouch function and hammer mechanics
• 128 notes of polyphony (Number of notes that can be played at once. This includes accompaniments that also consume notes. So if you play on top of an accompaniment more notes will be accumulated)
• 80 sounds (Different sounds of piano and other instruments)
• OLED quality display
• Central joystick control for more controls
• Dimming piano sounds that simulate virtual string resonance
• 2 programmable joystick controls
• Many effects with reverb, chorus
• Split function (dividing the keyboard into two different instruments)
• Sound equalization with Bass, Treble, Mastering controls
• USB midi (MIDI allows you to do such wonderful things as connect your keyboard to your computer, record a sound track and with certain programs click through what you’ve played to musical notes on a score. MIDI tracks store the information of the musical notes)
• Sustain pedal input (The sustain pedal of a piano or keyboard is used to keep the note playing even if you stop pressing the key) + input for another pedal. Not included
• Stereo line and headphone output
• 2 fairly powerful 10W speakers
• Feeder included
• Weight 7.1 kg and dimensions (L x W x H): 1270 x 230 x 110 mm

ARQ is fun and capable of good results. But before you get dazzled by its lights, consider if it’s the perfect fit for you, as it isn’t cheap. PROS: - Unique design. - Fun and productive pattern sequencer and looper. CONS: - Not cheap. - Menu system isn’t the most intuitive.

The stand is extremely stable, even with two keyboards, and, thanks to the fact of having double vertical arms in the X, also difficult to deform, thus allowing you to stay balanced even after several uses with heavy keyboards. The only flaw to report is the footprint. The clasp does not carry the holder perfectly closed and the secondary arm screws are very bulky, so once closed the keypad takes up a little more space than it could have occupy with a perfect and optimal closure.
