Roland RP701-CB Digital Piano in Contemporary Black Finish

A Great Piano for the Whole Family

If you’re choosing a piano for family use, the Roland RP701 offers an ideal combination of sound quality, playability, and value. Authentic tone and keyboard feel are essential when learning to play, and this affordable digital piano delivers both. Roland’s SuperNATURAL Piano technology provides a bright, expressive sound, while the highly responsive PHA-4 Standard keyboard recreates the natural feel of an acoustic piano.

The RP701 is also designed to be easy for anyone to use, even younger beginners. Clear icons and a clean, uncluttered control panel keep the focus on playing rather than navigating complicated menus or manuals. Built-in Bluetooth connectivity lets you stream music from your smartphone and explore a wide range of music apps, adding variety and motivation to practice sessions.

Powerful onboard speakers fill the room with rich piano sound, while Headphones 3D Ambience creates an immersive experience when practising privately. With its elegant cabinet design, the RP701 also brings the refined look of a traditional piano to your home.

Whether your children are just beginning their musical journey or you’re returning to the piano yourself, the RP701 offers the sound, feel, and style for everyone in the family to enjoy.

Authentic Grand Piano Feel

If you’re accustomed to playing on your teacher’s acoustic piano, the RP701 will feel instantly familiar. This digital instrument recreates not only the detailed sound of every note but also the natural response to your touch and playing dynamics. Roland’s powerful SuperNATURAL sound engine captures the subtle changes in tone and resonance you’d expect from an acoustic grand piano.

The realistic sound is complemented by the PHA-4 Standard keyboard, which features escapement and Ivory Feel key surfaces for a natural touch, including the subtle “click” sensation when a key is played. A Progressive Damper Action pedal is also included, allowing players to practise authentic half-pedalling techniques just as they would on an acoustic instrument.

Simple Controls, Instant Enjoyment

The RP701 is designed to be straightforward and easy to use, with clear controls and friendly icons that allow younger players to access essential features without assistance. Everything you need is within easy reach, including over 300 onboard songs, a built-in metronome for practice, recording functions, and convenient app connectivity.

Sit down and enjoy full, powerful sound from the piano’s twin speakers, perfect for filling the room with music. When you’d prefer to practise without distractions, simply slide the keyboard lid to conceal the control panel, connect a pair of headphones, and immerse yourself in Headphones 3D Ambience, which recreates the rich, spacious sound of an acoustic piano.

Stylish Design for the Modern Home

If you appreciate the classic look of an acoustic piano, the RP701 offers a design that will feel right at home. Inspired by the award-winning styling of Roland’s premium LX and HP series, the elegant cabinet combines graceful curves with clean lines, complemented by slim front legs that enhance its refined appearance.

Available in four attractive finishes, the RP701 suits a wide range of interior styles. Choose the warm, understated look of dark rosewood, or the lighter oak finish, which pairs natural wood grain with stylish greige accents. For a more classic statement, the piano is also offered in striking white or modern black.

Enhance Learning with Apps and Bluetooth

Modern digital features help keep the whole family engaged and motivated to play. With Bluetooth audio, you can connect a smartphone or tablet and stream music directly through the RP701’s speakers or headphones, making it easy to play along with your favourite songs and artists.

Bluetooth MIDI also opens the door to a wide range of online learning platforms, including services such as Skoove, helping players develop their skills at their own pace. You can also use the Roland Piano App, which provides interactive exercises, recording and evaluation tools, and a One Week Master programme designed to steadily expand your song repertoire.
