Wonderful! Thank you for sharing!

@djba 2 года назад

Thanks for the review. I don’t know if anyone else will find this interesting but I saw a couple of videos that show the tight integration between the RD-88 and Mainstage.

@ClintRobinsonMusic 2 года назад

Thanks for the video. This is the top of my shopping list right now 👍

@selftrue670 2 года назад

Ive been gigging with one for about 6 months. I love it top to bottom.

Just got the RD88 on sale for $1200! Can’t wait. Good review guys.

@a2roland Год назад

Thank you, where is it on sale for $1200 please?

@Rsonixtunes 8 месяцев назад

It was Sweetwater actually- they’re a bit lower now price wise and still more than worth it

I just pulled the trigger on this one. I hope it sounds as good when it arrives.

How does it compare to the fp60x ? I'm contemplating amongst the two of them ...

@franslengkeek 2 года назад

I agree with the findings of James Pavel Shawcross. I played it recent at Thomann Germany. It’s not a home practise piano but more an all in one stage keyboard. Not my favorite digital piano. Yamaha’s P515 price&quality is my favorite or Kawai. Real piano brands!

@qpianist5918 2 года назад

I have a feeling James Pavel doesn't like Roland product and perhaps his review on most of the Roland product kind of bias. I am a RD 88 user and so far I think it is a great stage piano.

where can you buy flight case for RD-88

@giuseppesanta8458 2 года назад

Hello. Do you think this piano can be used for learning the piano? Maybe the fp60x is better suited for learning. I also do mao, so it would be useful for my productions. Thank you for your answers. Regards.

Thank you. Pls compare rd88 vs fp30x just all acoustic piano sounds. No features.

@qpianist5918 2 года назад

RD88 is not in the same category as FP30x. If there is a comparison then perhaps FP60X

I don't think this has bluetooth but is it possible to get bluetooth connectivity? Thank u everyone

@mrtyreus0 2 года назад

Can't justify the weight and price of the Rd2000, but I've got the same sounds. Just wish the interface was a little easier to use in real time. Paired with my Spacestation V3 stereo amp it's the best not acoustic piano I've ever played. Someday I'll take full advantage of it's features...

@briankamisato9236 2 года назад

None of my hardware or software pianos sound good through my Spacestation amp. It does fill the room but a little harsh for my taste:::

@sobbsaroonie Год назад

Guys I played the rd88 at guitar center today. I'm in USA. I love the keyboard and action is finominal. I am disappointed with speakers as I want to maybe play nursing homes or jewelry stores around Christmas time and use the mic. I was messing around and hit the "key touch" button then I adjusted the "Velocity" from "Real" and incremented it up to 100 to 125. You literally get almost twice the volume out of those speakers its actually very loud but keys are very sensitive. But if you now lower the volume a bit it sounds pretty good with still more volume out of those speakers. My question " what the heck did I do?" It must set the key velocity like your slamming down on them when your really not. But is this a legit way to get more volume out of these speakers. Can you guys try this and let me know. I wonder also if this effects the mic volume as well I really want to get on of these puppies Thanks any advice appreciated. Thanks Mj.

@Rsonixtunes 8 месяцев назад

You turned up the velocity which makes even the softest keyboard touch go to 127. Navigate through the menu and just do a factory reset

@DeanHorak 2 года назад

How does it compare to the Yamaha P-515?

@Alan_Chapman 2 года назад

P-515 is basically a mid-tier Clavinova without the expensive cabinet and sound system. It’s more piano focused and intended for home practice. RD-88 is more comparable to something like an MX88. That’s got a very overlapping features and price point to this. Yamaha used to have a wider range of CP keyboards, but now they’re all considered top shelf stage keyboards from them so I wouldn’t compare them to this.

@plrooks 8 месяцев назад

How do you think the RD88 and CK88 compare?

@Rsonixtunes 8 месяцев назад

I liked the RD88 better - keybed and simplicity- supernatural piano and eps are terrific

@MinstrelTray 14 дней назад

CK88 is way better piano sounds are better

@madness8556 2 года назад

If only Roland included a large scroll wheel in order to much more easily get through those thousands of sounds and scenes!

@rolosaenz Год назад

+1 they missed that completely!! now i am between this or the Numa

@CHMCCOY1 2 года назад

Is the acoustic piano sound good enough for professional stage piano though? My only concern I really like everything else about this keyboard, but the ones iv played at guitar center have me laughing the piano sounds

@Rsonixtunes 8 месяцев назад

It’s Roland’s supernatural sound engine for pianos and eps… w editing, you can make it what you wish.

@MinstrelTray 14 дней назад

The piano sound is terrible lol

@Gearsandco Год назад

I love the RD88 but I'm starting to get bored of it even with the Roland cloud sounds added to it. I'm now in the market for a Kawai MP11se I know insanely expensive but worth it, and I would probably trade this RD88 to the Privia s6000.

@toomuchtoofast4533 Год назад

Hmm. Happens to all of us musicians I suppose. Have you really deep dived into the patch and scene creation? There are 3k sounds

@bateimidrashnetwork Год назад

Yeah, i got a real acoustic piano at home and it's only got like this one sound. No splits, no layers. Just aweful. And you can't save presets. This is 2023 guys 🙏🏽💪🏽👌🏽👌🏻

@Gearsandco Год назад

@@toomuchtoofast4533 yeah I downloaded 2 extra piano libraries from Roland Cloud

@Gearsandco Год назад

@@bateimidrashnetwork at least in a real acoustic Piano you tend to feel more connected though.

@Rsonixtunes 8 месяцев назад

Yeah you have to get into the scene creation. Each is comprised of 3 patches, even before dual mode and such. Keep the Rd88

Hey Ted, pronounce your last name in the next video. Not sure how to pronounce it

@new1st569 2 месяца назад

There are some complaints, that acoustic sounds of Roland RD88 are not like real and acoustic but artificial and synthetic. As you are specialist in piano, do you agree at that point? So named supernatual, consumers expect too much? Roland may know that their so called acoustic piano(even others) sounds are not so realistic, compared to Yamaha or others, then why don't they try to improve? Natural=real natural, but supernatural=beyond natural, so unnatural? So Rolands are EP biased?

@thepianotramp 2 года назад

Personally I found the navigation with all these "arrow" buttons outdated and not at all efficient. Terrible! And there is no app provided to be able to compensate this messy navigation. There is not possibility to add a music stand, not to say that at that price it is coming with a crappy plastic sustain pedal 😕 Come on Roland! It is supposed to be targeting professionals!

@qpianist5918 2 года назад

These are not important. Important is the sound and touch.
