Keyboard amplifier
A keyboard amplifier is a powered electronic amplifier and loudspeaker in a wooden speaker cabinet used for amplification of electronic keyboard instruments. Keyboard amplifiers are distinct from other types of amplification systems such as guitar amplifiers due to the particular challenges associated with making keyboards sound louder on stage; namely, to provide solid low-frequency sound reproduction for the deep basslines which keyboards can play and crisp high-frequency sound for the high-register notes. Another difference between keyboard amplifiers and guitar/bass amplifiers is that keyboard amps are usually designed with a relatively flat frequency response and low distortion. In contrast, many guitar and bass amp designers purposely make their amplifiers modify the frequency response, typically to "roll off" very high frequencies, and most rock and blues guitar amps, and since the 1980s and 1990s, even many bass amps are designed to add distortion or overdrive to the instrument tone (for bass, this is called "fuzz bass"). Keyboard amplifiers differ from guitar amplifiers and bass amplifiers in that whereas guitar and bass amps are usually designed for use with one guitar at a time, keyboard amplifiers almost always have a mixer with inputs for two, three, or four keyboards, because many performers often use multiple keyboards. For example, a single player may perform with a stage piano, a keytar and a synthesizer keyboard. Each channel input typically has its own pre-amplifier and volume knob. Keyboards amps in the lower cost range and power output range may only provide equalization controls (for modifying the bass and treble response) for the overall mix. Higher-priced, higher power output keyboard amps designed for professionals may have equalizer controls for each channel. Keyboard amplifiers also differ from guitar amps and bass amps in that whereas many guitar and bass amplifier companies often sell standalone amplifier units (which contain a preamplifier and power amplifier) for use with one or more separate speaker enclosures, keyboard amplifiers are almost always combination (or "combo") amplifiers, so-named because they combine a preamplifier, power amplifier, full-range speaker, and a horn-loaded tweeter, all in a single wooden speaker cabinet. Two notable exceptions to the "low distortion" rule are keyboard amplifiers designed for the Hammond organ or clonewheel organs and amps used with electric pianos such as the Fender Rhodes. With organs used in blues or hard rock, performers often use the vintage Leslie speaker cabinet and modern recreations, which have a tube amplifier which is often turned up to add a warm, "growling" overdrive to the organ sound. With electric pianos used in a rock or funk band, natural tube overdrive is often added to the sound.

PowerBook G3 Series (Bronze Keyboard, Lombard)
The third generation of PowerBook G3 (Lombard) was introduced in May 1999. It was much slimmer and lighter than its predecessor and was the first New World ROM PowerBook. It had longer battery life, and as with the Wallstreet II the user could double the duration to 10 hours by substituting a second battery for the optical drive in the expansion bay. The keyboard was also improved and now featured translucent bronze-tinted plastics, which is the origin of the "bronze keyboard" nickname. The Lombard was the second PowerBook (the Wallstreet being the first) to use industry-standard ATA optical drives. This change meant that CD and DVD recorders designed for wintel machines could more easily be used in this computer, often at a price far less than those manufactured by Apple. It was also the first Apple laptop with a backlit Apple logo on the rear of the display. Internal hard drives for the Pismo, Lombard, and Wallstreet II can be used interchangeably. The expansion bay drives (DVD, CD, floppy, battery) are interchangeable on the Pismo and Lombard, but not on the Wallstreet. A DVD drive was optional on the 333 MHz model and standard on the 400 MHz version. The 400 MHz model included a hardware MPEG-2 decoder for DVD playback, while the 333 MHz model was left without (except for the PC card one used by Wallstreet). Further DVD playback optimizations enabled both models to play back DVDs without use of hardware assistance. This model introduced USB ports to the PowerBook line while retaining SCSI support and eliminating ADB entirely (although the keyboard and touchpad still used an ADB interface internally). Graphics were provided by a Rage LT Pro chipset on the PCI bus, to drive its 14.1-inch LCD at a maximum resolution of 1024768. Mac OS 8.6-10.3.9 are supported by Apple, but 10.4 is not, although OS X will not install (except for 10.0) if both RAM slots are not occupied with identical size RAM. The use of XPostFacto 4 allows users to upgrade to Tiger, and it runs quite well for an unsupported machine. More RAM (up to 512 MB), a greater hard drive (up to 128 GB), and CPU upgrades (up to a 433 MHz G4) are available for these PowerBooks.

Whats the difference between playing the keyboard and the piano?


If you learn the piano , you will easily play the keyboard; The reverse is not necessarily the case. You could learn on a weighted keyboard with a piano-feel action, but these cost more than a decent second-hand upright. Learn the piano

The Early Keyboard Collection
The keyboard instruments collected by Benton Fletcher include six English harpsichords from the second half of the eighteenth century. Two are from Burkat Shudi's workshop in Soho. One is a single manual model dated 1761 and the other is a double manual harpsichord, naming both Burkat Shudi and John Broadwood as makers, dated 1770. The later instrument is faced with amboyna burl wood and is among the most elaborate of late English harpsichords, featuring the Venetian swell patented by Shudi in the same year, a machine stop, six hand-stops and a pedal action, with five notes below FF. Three instruments from Kirckman in London include a single manual harpsichord by Jacob Kirckman of 1752, a simple instrument with only 2 sets of 8' strings, a double manual harpsichord by Jacob Kirckman of 1762 with "book-matched" walnut veneer panels, and a double manual instrument by Jacob and Abraham Kirckman of 1777. A Longman and Broderip, a single manual harpsichord, made by Thomas Culliford dated 1783, which was the first harpsichord acquired by Benton Fletcher, includes a buff stop and a pedal machine stop. An anonymous Italian harpsichord of about 1590 with original jacks and keyboard is unusual having only one string per note. It has two split accidentals allowing either chromatic or selected lower bass notes to be played with the front or back component of the "same" key.


The interior of the lid features a painting of Moses and Aaron in an Italianate landscape. There are two bentside spinets. One, by John Hancock, London, is of late eighteenth century origin, with a single curve to the bentside. The other is unsigned, appears to be English and may have been made in 1742. It features a wing-shaped bent-side with a double curve as well as elegant ebony accidentals with a central ivory strip. Three of the four virginals in his collection are Italian. The oldest and lightest, dated 1540 is by Marcus Siculus of Sicily.
It includes a well preserved parchment rose of extravagant tracery, and is decorated with bone studs and symmetrical floral decoration. A more robustly made virginals attributed to Vincentius Pratensis was made in the late 16th or early 17th century. An unusual virginals attributed to Giovanni Celestini, Venice, also of late 16th or early 17th century construction has two rather than one string per note and a false inner-outer case, which is the custom of some Italian makers to make a case that looks as if a delicate inner instrument is lying within a protective outer case when in fact it is all one. Benton Fletcher said that he found this instrument in a cellar in Florence where it was being used as a carpenter's workbench. A late example of virginals by Robert Hatley, London, 1664, opens to reveal an inside lid and drop-down front painted with figures in 17th century dress in landscape, with applied gilt papers.
There is an anonymous triple fretted German clavichord of late 17th or early 18th Century origin. A grand piano inscribed Americus Backers, London, of the late 1770s is possibly an 18th-century "fake"; the instrument is genuine but it was probably not made by Backers. There is also a square piano of eighteenth origin by Christopher Ganer, London. Instruments collected by Benton Fletcher and probably lost during the Luftwaffe raid on Holborn in 1941 include an early 16th-century Italian painted clavichord, and two grand pianos, one by Matthew and William Stodart of 1791 and the second by Kirckman of 1803. A 16th-century portable pipe organ and a larger pipe organ of 1754 by Merlin were also lost. A third spinet is described by Edgar Hunt.
If it was in the collection, it may have been lost then as well. In Fenton House there are four keyboard instruments acquired after the death of Benton Fletcher in 1944, which are now considered as part of the collection. There is an Ioannes Ruckers harpsichord of 1612 from Antwerp enlarged in England in the 18th century belonging to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, formerly housed in Windsor Castle, a square piano by John Broadwood of 1774, a grand piano by John Broadwood & Son, London, of 1805 and a clavichord by Arnold Dolmetsch, Haslemere, of 1925.

Spilled pepsi on my laptop computerKeyboard no longer worksUBS keyboard not recognized Is it worth saving?


It's a little late now. You've allowed the acid in the soda to do more and more damage. Remove all power from the laptop. Disassemble the area above the keyboard so you can remove the keyboard. Carefully disconnect the flat ribbon cable. Wash the keyboard in water and dry it thoroughly with a hair dryer. When it's 100% dry, re-assemble the laptop. Be very careful when re-connecting the ribbon cable. While you have it open, look for any sticky residue or any areas of the circuit board that look dull or discolored. If you find any, clean them with rubbing alcohol and a toothbrush. Be very gentle.

Problem With my keyboard .......................?
Try restarting your machine. If that does not work try updating the drivers for the keyboard or just uninstall them and let the system automatically detect and reinstall them. If it is a PS2 keyboard it, a restart would work. USB u might have to try reinstalling the keyboard driver.

My keyboard stalls when Im on search bar?
All of a sudden, a window would pop up and ask me to save my work.again and again, endlessly. I found out that. .Certain keys were permanently jammed. To cut the story short, it forced me to 'save' when certain combinations of keys were accidentally typed (reference to 'keyboard shortcuts'.) Solutions: I carefully observed my keyboard, took apart the offending (jammed) plastic keys, adjusted the metal bars beneath them, and then re-assembled the plastic keys. In addition to that, I use the 'Accessibility Options' to (almost) eliminate repeat keystrokes etc. This particular keyboard problem is very unique. Maybe you have this problem too. Or maybe not. If you do, I would suggest first using another keyboard first (burrow someone else's).and see. Also note, when it comes to keyboard problems - it is always a case of cause and effect. In my case the keyboard was the cause. In most cases (such as 'hanging'/ crashes), it is the 'effect'.

One of the keys on my keyboard got pulled and raised a little,Help please?
We have tried gluing keys back without much success but no glue seems to handle repetitive pounding over time. Replacing your Notebook PC keyboard if the one key distracts/disturbs you enough should not be that difficult and I have done a total of 3 on Dell Notebook PCs. First you buy your manufacturer's specific genuine keyboard, price varies but should be in $15 to $30 range with S&H. For Dell their Technical Support website is GREAT and actually has the Service Manuals available on-line with step by step instructions and blow up schematics. Basically one gently sticks a flat head screwdriver (padded to prevent scratches) in the side of the silver piece that runs along the top of the keyboard and gently prys it off. This exposes 2 screws holding down the keyboard and the most difficult part is separating the ribbon cable. Then one installs in reverse connecting the ribbon cable, etc, Hope the Above Info Helps.

How an I confirm my Bluetooth 3.0 Keyboard is encrypted?
I suspect you should assume your keyboard is not secure. Much depends on who is likely to be attacking you - prankster or nation state:While Bluetooth has its benefits, it is susceptible to denial of service attacks, eavesdropping, man-in-the-middle attacks, message modification, and resource misappropriation.These two questions on related StackExchanges give a good overview:Hopefully you can secure the environment in which the keyboard can broadcast. The WireShark tool maybe able to intercept the Bluetooth traffic. See Bluetooth Smart Wireshark Plugin for a guide. Also see Bluetooth Smart Security for more technical details.
