Roland LX-9 CH Digital Piano (Black)

General

The Roland LX Series is the cream of the crop when it comes to digital pianos that look like traditional acoustic uprights, and here, you're looking at the flagship: the LX-9. Unlike its flat and compact counterparts, this digital piano is designed to be the centrepiece in the living room, and as you might expect, it's filled to the rafters with the latest technology.

The Sound of the Roland LX-9

Roland has equipped the LX-9 with a physical modelling sound engine, which goes a few steps further than your standard sample-based engine. Based on parameters such as string length, string tension, damping and resonance, the built-in Piano Reality Modelling engine simulates sound with convincing realism and without any compromises, resulting in a digital piano sound that's virtually indistinguishable from the sound of acoustic pianos.

Other Highlights

In addition to traditional piano sound, the Roland LX-9 offers up E-pianos, a harpsichord, a vibraphone, a choir, strings, organs and more, for a total of 324 different on-board sounds. Add that to the technically unlimited polyphony, the built-in Roland Piano App support and the various inputs and outputs, and you've got everything you would want from a high-end digital upright and then some.
