The renowned RD quality
Used by all types of musicians, from weekend warriors to touring pros, Roland RD pianos have been the instrument of choice for stage musicians since 1986. The RD-08 brings this acclaimed quality within reach in a budget-friendly instrument with basic RD features, with the option to enhance its performance further whenever you feel the need.

Premium pianos, and more.
Featuring Roland's SuperNATURAL technology, the RD-08 is packed with dynamic and characterful acoustic and electric piano sounds that offer limitless expressiveness in live and studio settings. You also have a wide range of organs, synths, strings, and other sounds suited to all musical styles, powered by the same ZEN-Core engine found in our top-of-the-line synthesizers.

Incredible playability
Drawing on over four decades of Roland piano technology, the RD-08 delivers the best playability in its class. The 88-key PHA-4 keyboard features weighted hammer action and Ivory Feel keys, providing a grand piano-like playing experience. Our latest advancements have allowed us to lighten the keyboard without compromising on feel and performance.

Play with peace of mind
Like all RD pianos, the streamlined interface of the RD-08 keeps you focused on playing and creating. Premium buttons provide quick access to sound selection, transposition, and other functions, while four multifunction rotary knobs are assigned to layer settings, effects, EQ, and other parameters. All your settings can be saved in Scene memories, ready to be recalled with a single touch during performances.
