While most electronic pianos in the past were created to simply solve problems with space availability, weight and headphone usage, today’s digital pianos are a vast improvement in many ways.  Authentic piano sound, gravity-based key actions and refined cabinetry are the hallmarks of every Roland Digital Piano we offer.  Roland Digital Pianos offer a wide array of benefits and vary from acoustic pianos and portable keyboards in many ways.
 
What Makes Roland Digital Pianos Different?
1
Roland digital pianos have 88 weighted keys to produce a digitally sampled Steinway Grand Piano sound and anywhere from 12 to 500 other musical instrument and midi sounds.		 5
Interactive digital pianos have large screens with educational lessons, recording & notation programs and theory training built in to enhance your learning and keep it fun.
2
The finest digital pianos utilize gravity-based key actions that authentically reproduce the touch, repetition and response of an acoustic piano without the help of springs.		 6
Pedals are mounted in fixed positions as part of the cabinet, again insuring proper and consistent body position for the pianist.
3
USB and/or MIDI connectivity allows for easy connections to MAC/PC platform computers, digital recording devices and memory sticks.		 7
Digital pianos weigh anywhere from 100 to 200 lbs. making them less than half the weight of an acoustic piano.
4
Digital pianos come in grand and upright piano cabinets that maintain a consistent, proper relationship between the keys and the hands and elbow angle of the pianist.		 8
Digital pianos have no tuning pins or strings so no tuning is required.  The biggest threat to digital pianos are power surges, which can be mitigated with the use of professional-grade surge protection.
