Product Information

but it is an open question as to whether that "smart" aspect has any relevance to controlling software pianos, or if it's only applicable to triggering the piano's internal sound. Some of these things are the excellent PHA-4 Standard key action, more built-in sounds, onboard Bluetooth connectivity as well as the Piano Partner 2 app which considerably expands the FP-10’s capabilities. You may wonder how it is possible to have 32, 64, or even 128 notes playing at the same time, if there are only 88 keys and we never play them all at once.

The speakers and integrated amplifier have also been carefully tuned for precise reproduction of every tonal detail. Tablet owners can also use the "Piano Partner 2" companion app with the FP-10, providing access to additional sounds (such as a Wurlitzer), extended parameter settings (442Hz tuning, for example), and a library of songs, scores, and learning tips to assist the budding pianist. But the chart is vague, and I think USB audio may be referring to recording audio onto a USB flash drive (which would be USB-to-device), as opposed to communicating audio and MIDI both over USB to an attached computer (which would be USB-to-Host).The FP-10 also ships with a music rest and basic footswitch pedal that we would recommend upgrading to the Roland DP-10 damper pedal with half-pedalling capability.

They have also said to let them know of any other issues you might come across as feedback from this forum is very important for them. Plus, with Bluetooth and MIDI connectivity, you can connect with a world of Digital Audio Workstations (DAW) and apps ranging from Apple GarageBand to Roland’s Piano Partner 2*. Hi, just want to drop a message about your great review of the FP-10, I got it in 2019 on a Roland special day in Canada, at first I was going for the Yamaha P45 but as I try the feel of the keys, I prefer much the FP-10. The Roland FP-10 has two 6-watt speakers (4 ½” – 12 cm), which is not a lot by any means, but enough for personal monitoring and performing in a home setting. There are four buttons on the top of the console which are ON/OFF, Volume up, Volume down and Function.

That said, we are hearing more tonal variety out of the S1100, and a slightly greater dynamic range.

With fast key repetition and high-resolution sensing, the PHA-4 faithfully translates into sound the subtlest differences in tone from different playing styles and dynamics. The Roland Worldwide Social Network keeps you connected to the latest products, exciting events, and much more. Please note: Although the sustain socket is advertised as being continuous, this keyboard will not output continuous midi signal if you connect an expression pedal into the sustain socket. What's more, the white keys are finished with a moisture absorbing material which provides a comfortable playing experience - even in hot environments.Boasting the acclaimed SuperNATURAL sound engine, Roland take the lead with innovative modelling technology. The only downside to this review is that I wish I could have bought the Roland FP-10 15 years ago when I used to go on the road and gig! Note: The headphone amp on the FP-10 is a bit weak, so if you intend to use headphones with a relatively high impedance ( > 40 ohms), you might need an external headphone amp to achieve optimal audio quality/volume levels. Can you please tell me if i can connect the fp10 via cable adaptor with my android tablet and use the flowkey or simply piano apps? So you can connect your iPad, for example, select the sheet music for a song you want to learn, prop the iPad on the music rest and away you go.
