You need so much more movement and speed, to get things done

about as much as drinking water your whole life would help you drink a beer faster

Genuinely watch professional piano players, seabass

Watch their entire body

Shoulders, arms, hands, legs, feet.

They are moving them.

A keyboard..you barely move, typing.

all your body knows in terms of muscle memory is "in this spot, there's A"

^

Oh no I'm mot doubting the skill gap lmao

so it doesn't carry over at all when there's no longer an alphabetical layout

Violin players have that same thing.

muscle memory isn't something that you grow and it gets stronger for EVERYTHING

A lot of people think it's just their arms, but in reality it's the enitre upper body lmao

it just gets stronger for that ONE thing youre training

Yeah. Muscle memory has to be trained for entirely new skills.

You can't just transfer your muscle memory, too something similar.

Well yeah the pianois fucking huge

That'd actually be BAD.

even if you use a small piano

it won't transfer over

If you tried to take your MM skills with a keyboard, and go to a piano it'd be hell.

You'd actually end up doing worse.

Small again big compared to a keyboard

literally you can program your qwerty keyboard to play piano

and you'll still be slow as ever

because new keys

And it's not as efficient I'd bet

idk i couldn't say

@Squeaks worse than someone that hadn't touched either? Ehhh idk Im kist saying the dexterity training from using a keyboard would certainly help as opposed to not having it at all.

Eeeehh..

it'd help but very little

It'd be minimal.

You'd get like, maybe a 1-2% boost, but you'd honestly have too try and re-learn things.

All the pianists I know, type using the weirdest poses

honestly typing on a keyboard is really bad for your hands

Two use their literal fingerprints.

so it might actually make it worse lol

Because their muscle memory becomes OVER RIDDEN.

They have a hard time typing on a keyboard

Because their minds equate it to a piano. So if anything, your reliance upon the muscle memory, is bad.
