Roland ph4 concert action in RD800


Nicky

Recommended Posts

I played a Roland RD800 the last few days as backline. I really enjoyed the action. My understanding is that it has the "ph4 concert" action. This differs form the "ph4 standard" found in the newer RD88. I think the the ph4 concert has been replaced by the ph50 as Roland's premium action (found in the RD2000)...but I think I actually prefer this older action in the RD800. Does anyone know what other Roland digital pianos this action can be found in? Thanks!

I played the RD800 for a week+ straight in the pit orchestra for a HS show (their equipment) and found it pretty decent as well. While the action on the RD2000 I found fatiguing and a bit sluggish when you need to play fast, notey stuff. I would look for other Roland models released around the same time (January 15, 2014) with the same spec stated action to compare to.

 

Check DP-90Se and HP506

Thanks...was thinking more of a stage piano, like the fp series...could it be that this action was only in the RD800? (in terms of a portable keyboard )
