If the stage is your second home, your lower back has probably filed a formal complaint by now. For decades, getting world-class piano sound meant lugging around a slab of metal heavy enough to anchor a boat.
The Roland RD-88 EX flips the script, packing the legendary "RD" pedigree — the gold standard for stage pianos since 1986 — into a streamlined, travel-friendly chassis. It’s a sonic powerhouse that bridges the gap between studio-grade sound and the rugged portability required for the road.
Uncompromised Touch and Feel
There’s nothing worse than a digital piano that feels like a toy calculator under your fingers. You need resistance, nuance, and keys that fight back just a little. Roland understands that the connection between player and instrument is sacred, which is why the RD-88 EX doesn't skimp on tactile details. It offers an authentic grand piano touch that lets you dig in for a fortissimo or feather a delicate ballad with equal precision.
PHA-4 Standard Keyboard: This isn’t a flimsy synth action; it’s a fully weighted, hammer-action keybed with escapement that faithfully replicates the mechanical click and feel of an acoustic grand.
Ivory Feel Keys: These keys feature a moisture-absorbing texture that replicates real ivory and ebony, providing a secure grip even during intense performances.
Rugged Durability: Designed for the demands of touring, this keybed is both refined and tough, delivering reliable performance night after night.
A Sonic Universe at Your Fingertips
Ready to play right out of the box, this piano comes armed with the SuperNATURAL Acoustic Piano 3 Expansion. This gives you a premium, concert-ready grand that will cut through the densest mixes. But it doesn't stop there. With the ZEN-Core engine under the hood, you have a sprawling library of over 3,000 sounds at your disposal. Go from a gritty jazz organ to a shimmering synth pad in the blink of an eye.
SuperNATURAL & ZEN-Core Engines: Combine the detailed realism of modeled acoustic pianos with the limitless synthesis power of Roland’s flagship synths for a palette that covers every genre imaginable.
SuperNATURAL Acoustic Piano 3 Expansion: Included as a factory standard, this expansion offers a rich, complex new concert piano tone that highlights the instrument's advanced processing power.
Zone Mixing: Layer and split the keyboard into three distinct zones. You can stack the RD-88 EX’s internal sounds or blend them with external soft synths to create massive, complex textures.
The Ultimate Gigging Command Center
Let’s be honest: menu-diving during a live set is a total buzzkill. The RD-88 EX is designed to keep your focus on the music, not buried in an LCD screen. Its dashboard is intuitive and direct, with dedicated controls for the functions you actually need mid-song. It also plays nicely with your computer. If your rig relies on Apple MainStage, this keyboard integrates so seamlessly it feels like an extension of your laptop, letting you control virtual instruments without touching a mouse.
Integrated Stereo Speakers: This pro board stands out with built-in stereo speakers that deliver surprisingly clear and punchy sound. Ideal for hotel room practice, backstage warm-ups, or acoustic rehearsals without needing an amp.
Apple MainStage Integration: A dedicated control profile lets you easily map software synths and parameters to the keyboard's knobs and wheels, simplifying your hybrid hardware/software setup.
Lightweight Design: Weighing under 30 lbs (13.5 kg), it’s portable enough for compact cars and tight stages, making setup and teardown hassle-free.
So, What's the Final Score?
The Roland RD-88 EX is a rare find: a professional-grade stage piano that delivers on both portability and quality. It bridges the gap between digital convenience and physical feel, offering an organic playing experience with a nearly endless sound library. If you're tired of compromising between great sound and easy transport, the RD-88 EX is the road-ready companion you've been looking for.

You will Love this one
This is a beautiful system. I have had the Yamaha DGX670 and a big fan, I have had the FP50, currently FP60x but the RD-88EX has them beat. The sounds are great, so far. I have not had the chance to go through all of course. I will give my biggest con now as it is important. The majority of the vide...
