A measure of how excited people are about this product is the amount of coverage it’s generating across social media etc. 😂 Even Roland can’t be bothered to market it any further than their website. Assume it’s an early April Fool - perhaps it will morph into the new RD 3000. We can only hope.

It really does sound good. For £200 more, (as of March 2024 prices) and if I were in the market, the Roland Fantom 08 (from 2019, me thinks) could just be the one for me, Sample, Vocoder and Sequencer too! However, if you want straight out of the box playing with none of the aforementioned bells and whistles, this Roland RD-08 does seem like a great option.

@dare2win215 3 месяца назад

At one time i would have agreed with this, but after using a laptop and VSTs for my live rig (Kontakt, Keyscape, Keysuite, etc.), I can tell you thst sample libraries aren't suited for live situations; mono destroys them every time. With all of the tweaking required for them to fit into live situations, you may as well buy a keyboard that's already optimized. Even my Nord Piano 5 sounds murky unless heavily tweaked

@dare2win215 3 месяца назад

@@fahimdawer that's precisely what i did. But, try it before you abandon the idea (tastes are unique). I bought a MacBook Pro i9 32GB (Not powerful enough for large libraries. Go 64gb). The only things that sound okay out of the box are electric pianos, basses, guitars, & synths. Pianos had to be HEAVILY tweaked or they were totally unusable (usually far too much mid & the key-off articulations & artifacts, which sound so great in the studio, only muddle things on stage). The ONLY piano library I'd recommend for live use is the iOS version of Ravenscroft. It sits perfectly in a mix, while maintaining realism as a solo instrument. But, most Kontakt or UVI piano libraries... NOPE. & I love all of the for studio.

@eligaller9190 Месяц назад

I consider to buy rd08 to mimic a real piano because in my new apartment there is no place for a real physical piano and i can afford it. An alternative would be a nord piano 5 but it cost 3 times the price of the roland. I allready played this stage piano in my favourite music store in vienna. I didnt play the nord piano 5. Do you think there is a great difference in sound? My most important point is mimicing real piano, everything other is not really important. BTW: Adam fantastic presentation, Thanks

@Zoco101 3 месяца назад

Why not make a 76 key version? It would be the new most portable piano currently on sale in the world - excluding those which lack a graded weighted action of course. Anyway, something tells me that Roland is about to discontinue the RD-88. Bad news for some of us!

So apparently with this board, if want to have an USB audio interface capability to use with your computer (DAW or Live), you need to purchase a one-time lifetime key on Roland Cloud to get those features. Is this something we are really doing now? "System expansion with the RD-08 Upgrade." The RD-08 is primed to support your ambitions as future performance needs grow. Available with a one-time Lifetime Key purchase on Roland Cloud, the value-packed RD-08 Upgrade complements the factory feature set with a host of new additions. USB Expansion-Adds USB audio interface capabilities for working with music production software on computers. Just why? Folks are Kraft Music, can you help here?

@Auroramaya 3 месяца назад

Just going with Occam’s razor here, it sounds like a loopcloud type of thing. You don’t have to pay to use this as a midi controller with your DAW, but rather the ability to import Roland sounds to your DAW. But if my intuition is wrong and you’re right then I agree with you that that blows.

I hear a phaser on the Rhodes in the background music but it sounded like from the description that it only had chorus. Are all the sounds we’re hearing from the RD08? Is the phaser baked into the preset or can you select Chorus types, one of them being a phaser?

@kraftmusic 3 месяца назад

We have this unit out in our studio and I just checked this for you. The effects under the "chorus/delay" section include delays and a few flavors of chorus such as a Roland SDD-320, Boss CE-1, and the chorus circuit from a JUNO synth...but I'm not seeing any phasers or other effects. This is in addition to the amp modeling available on the electric pianos and the global reverb. Thanks for watching!

@TNKeys 3 месяца назад

I went through this device with Ed Diaz from Roland on a Face Time call and we found a quite elaborate effects section with multiple phasers. Script 90, Script 100 and a few more. The shift button was involved somehow. I was just watching his display cam. Glad it’s in there. Gotta have a Phaser for the Rhodes.

Roland RD-08 vs Yamaha CK-88 which is better?

@rizkipuruze 3 месяца назад

I bought CK88 last weeks. I wish I knew this rd-08 would come out before i bought it. Cuz, i like the zen core sounds with its thousands of sounds. Since i'm still new in keyboard world. Can't tell a lot which one is best. But for my reason to go with CK88, it can be connected to electric guitar & play along with my keyboard. The other thing is that it can be a full midi controller with all of its knobs and faders can be assigned to send midi to control your favorite VST plugins. That sold me to buy this gear.

@madness8556 3 месяца назад

CK88 by far! I say that as a very happy RD88 owner who would have bought a CK88 if I didn't already have the Roland.

@adamwhite5553 27 дней назад

Depends on the type of key action you want. The RD is quite a lot 'heavier' and more like a real piano. The CK is a compromise between piano and organ, it is fine but you may feel it is a bit light and the keys don't travel far enough for how you want to play piano

I can’t decide in your place but if I have to choose … I should go for the fp30x … especially if you want to study on a good keyboard. I have the RD88 and the FP30 (older model). The RD88 is imo to much “forte piano” (short decay) . The FP30 is totally different in piano sound and is more a home piano. But! The FP30x is an upgrade in more sounds and very interesting, this model has 2 outputs for live use … ok , a short opinion 😊 … I should say … try these in a local store

I like stage keyboard a lot so rd08 or rd88 is great for doing performance on stage. Fp30x more like for home entertainment.

Take a good look at the Yamaha DGX-670. I have owned the DGX-650 for over a decade, and I still love it. The 670 is even better. I think it's also a killer value for the money. I would advise against it if you plan to gig with it because it's very heavy, but if it's going to just stay in place in your house like mine does, it's great.

Can’t believe Roland has launched another RD with the same crappy user interface as the RD 88. That one has nice keys, but dialing in a sound is overly complicated, the knobs useless and storing in those banks not intuitive at all. The RD it’s staying in my closet as the Fantom 06 is doing everything so much better. Setlists, layering, all working well there. Both share that ignorant Roland absence of a class compliant USB audio interface, rendering it painful to have backing teacks coming from a modern iphone or ipad. Many questionable design choices, it really feels like innovation is zero, the company is purely milking that outdated hardware and decades old sounds, mixed with an obnoxious cloud concept to death..
