There are also more than 1100 ensemble sounds on board for covering any musical style.

Offering the most extensive controller features of any RD-series piano to date, the RD2000 is ideal for commanding a large stage or studio setup. A newly designed interface offers a massive range of control with Scene memories, LED knobs and sliders, eight internal/external zones, and more.
Via the builtin USB audio/MIDI interface, it’s easy to integrate computer based software instruments.

In addition to main stereo outputs on XLR and 1⁄4inch jacks, there’s also an assignable stereo sub output for flexible sound routing on stage.
