The weighted GHS action allows you to put a heavier touch on the lower end of the piano and a heavier touch on the upper end of the piano so that you can build a finger technique required when performing on an acoustic piano.

The USB Audio (WAV) Recording/Playback enables you to record performances or MIDI songs as uncompressed, CD-quality audio to a USB flash drive.
