The ultimate RD experience.
The RD-2000 EX delivers the ultimate RD experience, fusing Roland’s top piano technologies with a rich array of modern creative tools. This powerful and inspiring instrument is the most complete stage piano solution available, offering dual sound engines, two pre-installed V-Piano Expansions, premium playability, and advanced controller features for professional performers.
The RD-2000 EX represents the pinnacle of the Roland RD legacy, packing 50 years of piano development knowledge into a no-compromise instrument tailored for today’s performers. Two independent engines put our very best sounds at your fingertips, supported by a refined hammer-action keyboard for unmatched playability. Advanced controller features are also included, letting you manipulate sounds and integrate software and hardware synths via an intuitive, hands-on workflow.
The RD-2000 EX features a sound engine powered by V-Piano technology, our acclaimed modeling approach that realizes the complex sound and interactive feel of an acoustic piano in astonishing detail. High-speed DSP eliminates the roadblocks of systems based solely on samples, providing natural response, unlimited expression, and full polyphony. There’s a wide selection of ready-to-play presets, and it’s possible to go much further if you want. With the onboard Piano Designer tools, you can adjust the tuning of individual notes, personalize tonal details, and craft unique instruments not possible in the physical world.
In addition to the core V-Piano instrument, the RD-2000 EX extends your creative range with two V-Piano Expansion titles. Ideal for both solo work and ensemble performances, the German Concert expansion offers a versatile new voice inspired by famous concert-class grand pianos. The newly developed Essential Upright expansion brings a more intimate sonic flavor with the distinctive tones and unique spatial quality of a high-end upright piano.
The RD-2000 EX offers a diverse selection of iconic electric pianos powered by Roland’s renowned SuperNATURAL engine. You also get an authentic recreation of the RD-1000—the breakthrough instrument that began the RD story in 1986—along with the MKS-20, a classic sound module heard on countless hits from the mid-’80s forward. Several vintage-style effects provide distinctive color, including spot-on recreations of the BOSS CE-1 Chorus Ensemble pedal and Roland SDD-320 Dimension D studio rack unit.
