Pianos are usually tuned to a modified version of the system called equal temperament. Fine piano tuning requires an assessment of the vibration interaction among notes, which is different for every piano, thus in practice requiring slightly different pitches from any theoretical standard. The meaning of the term 'in tune', in the context of piano tuning, is not simply a particular fixed set of pitches. Piano tuning is the act of adjusting the tension of the strings of an acoustic piano so that the musical intervals between strings are in tune. As I mentioned earlier, although we are not an authorized Roland or Yamaha piano dealer, we do recommend many brands and models of new digital pianos, including Roland & Yamaha if they fit your needs and your budget, and will direct you to an authorized source in the US that you can work with and save money."Piano tuner" redirects here.

This blog is to give info to the public so they can better determine which piano product, service, or information may be right for that individual.

The content and reviews that I publish for the public are my personal opinions based on my experience for many years as a professional musician, piano instructor, and piano consultant. Check those pianos out at the following review link: Roland MP-200, Roland RCP-800 ReviewĬontent Disclaimer: All my reviews are independent of any others on the internet and are done with much research, time, energy, and personal experience on my part with a big variety of instruments. The same is true for the Roland RCP-800 and Roland MP-200. So if you prefer a more rounded, mellower piano tone, there are definitely better options.

This is just the personality of this model as well as the new RP701 that I mentioned, but is not the case with most regular acoustic pianos or with other digital pianos such as Kawai, Yamaha, or Casio. The harder you press the keys down the more brassy and metallic the piano sound gets, regardless of which piano tone you choose. Also the piano sound on the Roland models tends to be somewhat brassy and twangy particularly when playing the keys a bit harder with more expression. Personally I prefer the slightly lighter piano key actions to reduce hand and finger fatigue when playing, especially for beginners but even for seasoned players because that's how real piano key actions feel.they are lighter. It is important to note the Roland RP500 plastic key action is somewhat firm (heavier) when pressing down the keys (takes more finger force) as compared to other key actions from regular acoustic pianos as well as major brand digital pianos including Kawai and Casio.
