Roland RD-08 88-key Digital Stage Piano

Deluxe sounds and quick navigation

If you’re like the keyboardists here at Musiekwereld, you love having tons of sounds at your disposal. Roland packed the RD-08 with a vast library of sounds courtesy of the ZEN-Core sound engine and SuperNATURAL technology. Fortunately, you don’t have to wade through a forest of confusing knobs and menus to access them. You get a range of legendary sounds, from acoustic and electronic pianos to organs and flutes. The RD-08 has a thoughtfully designed interface that keeps all the necessary controls within easy reach. It’s just as easy to dial up a new sound as it is to shape your tone and add extra effects on the fly. Need more sonic flexibility? You’re in luck, as the RD-08 also integrates with Apple MainStage to control soft synths over three zones.

Authentic grand piano playing feel

When you feel connected to your instrument, you’re going to perform better. It’s as simple as that. Roland knows this as well, which is why they outfitted the RD-08 with their acclaimed PHA-4 keybed. Professionals all over the world rave about the PHA-4’s natural playability and smooth, reliable action. The Ivory Feel finish behaves like traditional ebony and ivory keys, gradually breaking in over time. Play your RD-08 for long enough, and it’ll feel just like the well-used piano you first learned on. With the RD-08, you get the playing experience usually reserved for premium acoustic grand pianos.

Take the stage with confidence

Just because the RD-08 has a refined playing experience doesn’t mean it won’t take a beating. In fact, it quite easily handles the rigors of the road. The slim, streamlined design easily fits in the back of the van and is an absolute breeze to set up. This stage piano also comes equipped with an integrated speaker system, which is super convenient for everything from intimate venues to solo rehearsals. Whether you’re a regular on the local studio and club scene or you’re touring around the world — the Roland RD-08 is ready to rock!
