Japanese-made high-quality RH3 keybed

The stylish ST-SV1 stand (sold separately) completes a great-looking setup on stage or in room.

30 high-quality sounds
The D1 contains a total of 30 richly expressive sounds which include not only a variety of piano sounds to cover genres such as classical, jazz, and pop, but also electric piano, organ, and clavi sounds that will be useful on stage, and even sounds such as vibraphone, acoustic guitar, and strings. In order to achieve a playing feel that’s amazingly close to that of an acoustic piano, the sound switches between four piano samples depending on the dynamics of performance. From a delicate touch to dynamic fortissimo, the sound responds realistically to playing. The overall piano sound is enjoyable to play and delivers an authentic experience. The electric piano sounds reproduce not only the tonal differences in response to playing touch but also the key-off noise. Six variations are built in, covering sounds often used in the popular music of the ’60s and ’70s as well as tones that are treasured in soul music. Six versatile organ sounds are also provided, ranging from sounds used in rock or jazz to solemn pipe organ tones.

Faithful reproduction of acoustic piano resonance
The Concert Piano, Grand Piano and Jazz Piano sounds reproduce damper resonance, realistically simulating the spacious resonance produced by the sympathetic vibration of the strings when hold down the damper pedal of an acoustic piano. The D1 also simulates the decay of the sound when take finger off a key and the way in which playing technique affects the string resonance, responding to staccato or legato in a natural way that further enhances the expressiveness of performance
