After the innovative Roland Go Piano, with integrated Amazon Alexa, Roland offers us its RD workhorse revisited for the needs of the modern musician.
RD-88, 88-key piano, with action PHA-4 Ivory Feel, guarantees the performer an increasingly natural feeling when playing a digital piano.
The instrument has been equipped with a very high quality sound bank managed by the same sound generator Zen Core which mounts its flagship synthesizer.
The new stamps SuperNATURAL they are able to pass from an open and bright character to a dark and woody one with simple changes of parameters that can be activated mediated slider e knob placed on the hob panel.
The instrument is very light compared to its predecessors. In fact, it weighs only 13,5 kg and on this version it mounts small speakers of 6 watts to channel.
Il Roland RD-88 has three zones that can be configured with internal sounds, or that can integrate and control soft synths from Apple MainStage. This allows you to intuitively recreate the tones of a recording or mix your favorite plugins with the RD-88's internal ones.
The only drawback that I was able to ascertain from the technical characteristics present on the Roland website is that the piano mounts a external power supply.
