Overview
reface CP Mini Stage Piano
Its design is living proof: The reface CP is a spiritual successor of the unique stage keyboards of the 70s. It brings emotional and powerful vintage sounds into today’s mobile world without any compromise regarding sound, playability or polyphony.
As a Combo Piano, the reface CP offers six classical keyboard sounds with excellent quality thanks to SCM (Spectral Component Modeling) and AWM2 sound generation. Carefully selected vintage effects increase the authenticity of the sounds even further, instantly evoking memories of legendary songs throughout the history of rock and pop – for example by Keane, U2, Genesis and Billy Joel.

Question: Can I use this as a sounds source for my Yamaha Piaggero keyboard, so I can use biger keys?
Answer
Thank you for your interest in the reface CP. The reface's specially-designed mini keys are extremely playable (unlike most minikeys) but if you need larger or more keys, yes, you can. If your keyboard has traditional MIDI IN and MIDI OUT connections, it can connect to the MIDI breakout cable included with the reface CP using standard MIDI cables.
If your keyboard has a Class-Compliant USB-to-Host connection rather than MIDI IN and MIDI OUT, you can use a USB-to-Host > MIDI converter, similar to this model from Kenton:

Or the mio4 from iConnectivity:

(Some pre-configuration of the converter using a computer may be required)
