The Roland RD-88 is a professional 88-key stage piano built for gigging musicians who need premium sound and effortless portability. Powered by Roland's ZEN-Core Synthesis System alongside dedicated SuperNATURAL Piano and E.Piano engines, it delivers over 3,000 tones organized into 400 easily accessible scenes — from expressive acoustic grands and classic electric pianos to iconic legacy Roland synth sounds. The PHA-4 Standard weighted keyboard with escapement and ivory-feel keys provides a natural, responsive playing experience that translates every nuance of your performance. Three independent zones allow for versatile layering, splitting, and external control, with seamless Apple MainStage integration for expanded live setups. A built-in stereo speaker system with dedicated tweeters lets you practice or perform without external amplification, while standard 1/4" outputs, USB audio/MIDI, a mic input, and a line input keep you connected to any stage or studio rig. At just 13.5 kg, the RD-88 is one of the most portable full-size stage pianos in its class, proving that professional tone and road-ready convenience don't have to be a compromise.
