Introduction:
Hi everyone, and welcome to our sneak peek of Roland's new RD2000EX. This stage piano comes with dual onboard sound processors, built-in DI for direct XLR outputs, and versatile submix capabilities. It offers deep dog control with assignable sliders and knobs, allowing you to create hundreds of presets with up to 8 zones simultaneously. For those seeking an authentic Hammond experience, the sliders transform into drawbars for a realistic AB3 emulation with a Leslie speaker.

Familiar Yet Enhanced:
While the RD2000EX looks identical to its predecessor, the RD2000, the real magic lies under the hood. Initially, we questioned the lack of hardware changes, but after playing it, the improvements became clear. The RD2000EX features two expansion packs of newly modeled pianos, leveraging advancements in Roland's V Piano sound engine. This results in the most authentic and versatile collection of pro-level acoustic piano tones ever assembled on a physical instrument.

Key Features:

APHA 50 Action:
The RD2000EX retains the robust APHA 50 action from the original RD2000. This action provides excellent repetition speed, texture, and sensing, ensuring a responsive and satisfying playing experience.

New Piano Tones:
The two expansion packs offer a fundamental rewrite of the V Piano algorithm, delivering organic and warm tones with exceptional fidelity.
The first expansion card features the German concert grand, modeled after a Hamburg Steinway concert grand.
The second expansion card starts with an upright piano, reminiscent of a Steinway K52, offering a wide range of character and subtlety.

Supernatural Sounds:
In addition to the new piano tones, the RD2000EX includes a variety of supernatural sounds, including electric pianos and other instruments, ensuring versatility for any musical style.

Real-World Application:
The RD2000EX is perfect for any producer, promoter, or festival organizer needing a reliable and highly detailed piano sound on stage. Its robust build and incredible nuance make it the go-to stage piano for live performances. For owners of the original RD2000, upgrading to the new system and expansion packs is a worthwhile investment, especially for those focused on acoustic piano sounds in live settings or home production setups.
