A Modern Furniture Piano Designed for Home and Progress
The Roland RP-701 DR (dark rosewood finish) fits within the spirit of Roland furniture pianos: a sober and elegant aesthetic, immediate usability, and genuinely useful everyday functions. Inspired by the brand's higher-end lines, it targets both the beginner who wants to start on solid ground and the returning pianist seeking serious touch, credible sound, and up-to-date connectivity without unnecessary complexity.
Keyboard Design
With its PHA-4 Standard 88-key weighted keyboard, the RP-701 emphasizes control: the escapement enhances the release sensation and precision in piano playing, while the "Ivory Feel" coating provides a pleasant grip, especially appreciated during long sessions. The velocity sensitivity translates your intentions (pianissimo, accents, intermediate nuances) with finesse. Regarding expressiveness, the 3 integrated pedals enhance realism, with a sustain pedal featuring Progressive Damper Action to practice half-pedaling and resonance transitions.
Sound Quality
The sound engine is based on SuperNATURAL Piano, renowned for its musical response and dynamic behavior: timbre variations depending on attack, management of resonances (strings, dampers), and playing details such as release noise. The RP-701 is not limited to piano sounds: it offers 324 tones to vary styles and enrich practice. The maximum polyphony of 256 voices (double) secures passages rich in sustain and layering while maintaining clarity. Finally, the 2 x 12 W amplification provides balanced projection for a living room, and the Headphones 3D Ambience effect enhances spatial sensation when using headphones, ideal for long playing sessions without fatigue.
