Roland RP401R 88-Key Digital Piano

Compact, attractive, and filled with Roland’s award-winning features, the RP401R is the ideal choice for a young family looking to bring a quality piano into their home. With its premium sound and touch, the affordable RP401R presents a solid musical foundation for children and adults as they learn to play. In addition, onboard rhythm accompaniments offer a fun way to build timing skills while experiencing a full ensemble sound that automatically follows chords played on the keyboard. Players can also enjoy the unique sound field of an acoustic piano during private practice sessions, thanks to the innovative Headphones 3D Ambience effect. Also included in the RP401R are many extras to engage young students and encourage regular practice, such as a wide selection of instrument tones beyond the piano and support for free Roland piano apps for the iPhone and iPad.

The RP401R features superior quality that easily outranks other instruments in its price class, providing a bedrock foundation that will last through many years of musical growth and piano enjoyment. Roland’s renowned SuperNATURAL Piano sound engine delivers the rich, expressive sound of an acoustic grand, offering an authentic piano experience that inspires young students to practice and learn. The newly developed PHA-4 Standard Keyboard inherits the functions, appearance, and Ivory Feel texture of keyboards found in our flagship instruments, and includes the very latest sensing technology to take full advantage of SuperNATURAL Piano’s enormous tonal range. The RP401R also has three integrated pedals like an acoustic grand, including a Progressive Damper Action pedal that offers continuous response for traditional playing techniques.
