ROLAND RD-88EX

STAGE PIANO PERFECTION
The RD-88 EX delivers a premium RD stage piano experience with expanded sounds and supreme playability. Perform at the highest level with SuperNATURAL and ZEN-Core engines and our expressive PHA-4 hammer-action keyboard. Freely combine internal sounds with computer-based virtual instruments. And perform anywhere with the portable design and room-filling stereo speaker system.

RD POWER
The RD-88 EX embodies all the qualities that have made RD pianos the stage standard since 1986. Infused with Roland’s industry-leading technologies and versatile controller features, this inspiring instrument is primed for every professional playing situation.

SUPERNATURAL MAGIC
The RD-88 EX is filled with rich, characterful pianos powered by our acclaimed SuperNATURAL technology. Multiple expressive grand pianos are at your fingers, including the recently developed SuperNATURAL Acoustic Piano 3 Expansion. Classic EPs are also on hand, with stunningly accurate recreations of vintage icons from the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s.

ZEN-CORE VERSATILITY
The RD-88 EX also includes over 3000 non-piano sounds, letting you tackle all types of gigs with just one keyboard. Tap into organs, synths, strings, brass, world sounds, and more from the historic Roland library, fuelLed by the same ZEN-Core engine found in our flagship synthesizers.

SMOOTH WORKFLOW
With the efficient RD panel layout, you can quickly call up sound categories, save setups in Scenes, and jump to your main piano voice with a single touch. Multi-function controls provide hands-on access to volume levels and many other parameters. A large effect selection is also available, ready to enhance sounds with everything from basic studio coloUr to intense over-the-top processing.

CREATIVE ZONES
The RD-88 EX features three zones for creating layers and splits with internal or external sounds—or both together. With the built-in USB audio/MIDI interface and dedicated control profile for Apple MainStage, it’s easy to weave virtual instruments and studio tracks into your stage performances.

MAGNIFICENT TOUCH
The RD-88 EX offers supreme playability honed with five decades of Roland piano development. The PHA-4 88-note keyboard features weighted hammer action and Ivory Feel keys for an authentic grand feel, realised with an innovative design that reduces the instrument’s weight without compromising the feel or performance.

GRAB AND GO
With its light and rugged build, the RD-88 EX is easy to carry wherever you want to play. Built-in stereo speakers project rich, room-filling sound, eliminating the need for an external amplifier for home practice, rehearsals, and performances in small venues. Visit the Accessories tab to check out pedals, stands, and other gear to support your RD experience.

UPGRADE YOUR ORIGINAL RD-88
The RD-88 EX Upgrade available on Roland Cloud will equip an original RD-88 model with EX specs, including the SuperNATURAL Acoustic Piano 3 Expansion title.

Roland digital pianos and keyboards are covered by a 5 year manufacturer warranty.

Although we are not authorised to determine if any repair is covered under warranty, if the item was purchased through World of Music, then we are often the best people to facilitate the claim for you and will do so as timely as possible. Warranty does not apply to cosmetic damage or faults that are a result of user neglect. Although your mate is really handy with a soldering iron, any product modification or home repair will also result in a void warranty.

Quite often, something perceived as a fault is as simple as a faulty cable or power issue so we always suggest checking over Frequently Asked Questions on the manufacturer website first. It can be a helpful approach to getting to the bottom of a problem and save you a lot of time in getting your gear back up and running!

Roland products ship via courier from either our Melbourne store or Roland’s warehouse in Sydney; fully insured for your peace of mind. Orders require a signature on delivery and we suggest using an address where someone will be present for the speediest delivery time. For delivery attempts with no one present to sign, your order will be taken to the courier depot and a card will be left for you to organise redelivery.
