The RD-08 gives you legendary Roland RD piano performance in a slim, efficient keyboard that's easy to carry. Our most affordable RD yet delivers uncompromising sound and playability for professional gigs, backed by an intuitive interface for quick navigation in the heat of battle. And with its upgradeable design, you can add even more sounds and features as your needs evolve.
Recognized RD service.
Roland RD pianos have been the leading choice for performing musicians since 1986, used by everyone from weekend warriors to professional touring musicians. The RD-08 makes this acclaimed legacy available in a budget-friendly instrument with core RD features, along with an upgrade path to expand the instrument's reach when the time is right for you.
First-class pianos - and much more.
Powered by Roland's SuperNATURAL technology, the RD-08 is packed with dynamic, characterful acoustic and electric pianos for limitless expression on stage and in the studio. You also get a wide selection of organs, synths, strings, and other sounds to tackle any musical style, powered by the same ZEN-Core sound engine found in our latest flagship synthesizers.
Excellent playability.
The RD-08 offers best-in-class playability, built on over four decades of Roland piano development. The PHA-4 88-note keyboard features weighted hammer action and Ivory Feel keys for an authentic grand feel, realized with innovative design elements that reduce the instrument's weight without compromising feel or performance.
Play with confidence.
Like all RD pianos, the RD-08's efficient panel keeps you focused on playing and creating. Top-level buttons provide quick access to sound selection, transposition, and other functions, while four multi-function buttons provide convenient control over layers, effects, EQ, and more. All of your customizations can be saved in scene memories for one-touch recall while you play.
Ready for it all.
The RD-08 is an ideal stage piano for active musicians. Its light weight and streamlined dimensions make it easy to move, while its sturdy construction can withstand years of hard use. Built-in stereo speakers project rich, room-filling sound, eliminating the need for an external amplifier when practicing at home, playing at rehearsals, and performing in small venues.
System expansion with RD-08 Upgrade.
The RD-08 is ready to support your ambitions as your future performance needs grow. The valuable RD-08 Upgrade is available with a one-time purchase of a Lifetime Key on Roland Cloud and complements the factory feature set with a host of new additions.
