Sumptuous sounds and slick navigation

Keyboardists appreciate having tons of sounds at their disposal, and the RD-88 EX doesn’t disappoint. Roland packed the RD-88 EX with more than 3,000 sounds courtesy of the ZEN-Core sound engine. Of course, the acclaimed SuperNATURAL acoustic and electric pianos are onboard, as is the SuperNATURAL Acoustic Piano 3 Expansion pack. Fortunately, you don’t have to wade through a forest of confusing knobs and menus to access the sounds you need in the heat of a gig. The instrument’s thoughtfully designed interface keeps all the necessary controls within easy reach. From acoustic and electronic pianos to organs and flutes, everything’s right at your fingertips. It’s just as easy to dial up a new sound as it is to shape your tone and add effects on the fly. Need more sonic flexibility? You’re in luck, as the RD-88 EX also integrates with Apple MainStage to control soft synths over three zones.

A poised 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-88 EX 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-88 EX for long enough, and it’ll feel just like the well-used piano you first learned on. With the RD-88 EX, you relish a playing experience usually reserved for high-ticket acoustic grand pianos. The key surfaces also wick away moisture during marathon gigs under hot stage lights, so you’ll always hit your mark, no matter how demanding and technical the musical passage.

Gig with confidence

Just because the RD-88 EX rewards musicians with 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 streamlined, roadworthy chassis 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. From local club gigs to major world tours, your RD-88 EX is ready to rock.
