A great stage piano needs sounds that are authentic and have character. The RD-88 features updated SuperNATURAL pianos and electric pianos that can go from sparkle to grit with a few knob twists.

Controls are clearly marked and in reach. This allows you to quickly find your favorite sounds, add effects, or shape the tonal balance to suit the venue.

Integrate Soft Synths

The RD-88 has three zones that can be configured with internal sounds, or you can integrate and control soft synths from Apple MainStage. This makes it simple to duplicate the sound of a track live, or mix favorite soft synths with the RD-88's own palette of sounds.
