Roland DP990F Digital Piano

Roland Digital Piano – DP990F

The Roland DP-990F digital piano carries a new aspect of acoustic-piano realism to the digital domain through Roland’s groundbreaking SuperNATURAL Piano technology onboard. The Roland’s SuperNATURAL Piano technology links the gaps with absolutely smooth and natural three-dimensional sound and response.

Three key elements are spectacularly improved: velocity response, note decay, and key-range behavior. DP990F includes the “Twin Piano” function which allows you to split the keyboard left and right into two regions, each with its own middle “C” and damper pedal. Two players wearing headphones can then play completely separately without hearing one another a powerful application for “partner” lessons or piano labs. The DP990F is prepared with Roland’s highly praised PHA II keyboard with Escapement. The keyboard yields a heavier touch in the lower range and lighter touch in the upper, giving lighter resistance for pianissimo passages and stronger resistance for fortissimo. The Roland DP990F astonishes with its sleek, modern-furniture-like design, featuring a solid, soft-close safety lid that can be used as a music rest when opened and as a flat surface when closed.
