VIMA piano sound — based on Roland’s decades of world-leading research in acoustic-piano analysis and digital-piano technology
The RK-300 incorporates Roland’s finest 88-note stereo sampled grand piano sound, offering incredible realism from powerful low-range notes to brilliant highs. Due to meticulous sampling of all 88 notes of a world-famous acoustic grand piano, the RK-300 reproduces every sound and resonant characteristic with clarity, detail, and authenticity. With the Piano Designer function, you can adjust delicate sound characters such as the open / close degree of the piano lid, string resonance, etc. Up to 128 voices can play simultaneously, ensuring the natural resonance of strings when using the damper pedal extensively.
The continuous pedals react your pedaling techniques and emotional expressions
The RK-300’s damper and soft pedals can detect the slightest and most delicate pedaling work. Piano-pedaling techniques such as positional depth are authentically reproduced with the RK-300.

Natural-feeling key touch with expressive control
The RK-300 is outfitted with Roland’s acclaimed PHAII keyboard, which realizes the natural touch of a grand piano exclusively with the weight of hammers (no springs are used). The keys sink quietly and smoothly when pressed
lightly, and provide slight resistance when pressed more forcefully. Even the grand-piano keyboard's unique “let off” feeling is faithfully reproduced.
Avariety of lesson-oriented features are also onboard
RK-300's convenient lesson-assist features (metronome, recorder, Twin Piano, etc…) can help students master the piano.

Let's play your favorite songs backed by MP3 or audio CD
The RK-300 comes with a popular and widely varied song library on the bundled CD-ROM (stored as music data). With music data, you can change key and tempo, and you can mute or solo each part separately (right hand, left hand, backing) for play-along practice. The RK-300 can also play audio data such as MP3 files*1 from USB Flash Memory and other media; audio CDs can be played via USB CD drive. With audio data, you can change key and tempo,
while the Center Cancel feature lets you minimize the melody part so you can play along. You can be a soloist with your favorite CD, for example.
