Keyboards and pianos produce similar sounds when played, but there are differences in the quality and tone of the sound. Keyboards use electronic technology to replicate the sound of a piano, while pianos produce sound acoustically through vibrating strings.

What is a touch sensitive piano keyboard?

If your keyboard is not touch sensitive, you don't have a piano. Digital pianos attempt, with widely varying degrees of success, to duplicate the sound and experience of playing acoustic pianos. When a key is struck more rapidly, the volume of the sound in an acoustic piano increases. With a lightly struck key, the sound can be extremely soft. The variability of volume or sound intensity in digital pianos is possible because of touch sensitive keyboards. This is not the same as 'weighted' keyboard. A weighted keyboard is an attempt to duplicate the tactile experience of depressing the keys of an acoustic piano. You can have touch sensitive keyboards that feel more like they are controlled by springs; this is not acceptable to most experienced piano players.

Why does a piano have 88 keys?

Not all pianos have 88 keys, although most modern pianos do. Pianos have roughly 88 keys because of the reach of the the player. Early pianos often had 85 keys. There was pressure to standardise on a number because composers wouldn't want to to write for keyboards if not all pianos could play them. Some modern keyboards have extra keys; usually these are hidden under a flap that can be raised if required - some jazz players like to have the extra bass notes. Having the extra notes also adds resonounce to other (conventional) bass notes.
