Roland RD-08

The Roland RD-08 Stage Piano was designed for musicians who don't want to compromise on quality and mobility, combining the proven heritage of the RD series with state-of-the-art technology and design. Thanks to its compact construction and lightweight, it is the ideal companion for the active musician who values flexibility without sacrificing sound quality.

At the core of the keyboard lies Roland's proven SuperNATURAL Sound Engine, which offers an unparalleled dynamic range of acoustic and electric pianos. This engine, complemented by the ZEN-Core technology, provides access to an almost infinite world of sounds – from classic organs to vibrant strings to modern synthesizers. Thus, the instrument offers the right sounds for every music style and performance.

The intuitive interface of the RD-08 was specifically designed for live performance, ensuring easy navigation and quick access to the extensive features even in the most hectic moments. The PHA-4 keyboard with 88 weighted keys and ivory feel ensures an authentic playing experience that is second to none in terms of the nuances of an acoustic grand piano.

For those whose artistic demands grow, the manufacturer offers a simple solution to expand the instrument. With the RD-08 upgrade from the Roland Cloud, the piano can be enriched with a wealth of new sounds and features, including a completely new concert piano and enhanced integration options into digital work environments.

The RD-08 not only presents itself as a robust and reliable instrument for stage use but also as a creative partner in the studio. With its integrated stereo speaker system, which produces powerful, room-filling sound, it is equally suitable for use in smaller spaces or for practicing at home. It remains easy to transport and set up, making it an indispensable tool for musicians who value both quality and mobility.
