Developed simultaneously with the flagship RD-700SX, the RD-300SX
provides the same stunning 88-note multi sampled piano found in the
flagship, plus 128-voice polyphonic performance, and expanded sound
sets. Its feature set is pure heavyweight, but physically the RD-300SX
is one of the lightest 88-note pianos in its class - a comfort to
transport from gig to gig.

No-Compromise Sound and Feel
With Roland's most powerful sound engine at its core, the RD-300SX
delivers heavyweight specs in lightweight body. Sharing much in common
with its high-end sibling, the RD-700SX, the RD-300SX offers 128-voice
polyphony, 88-note individually sampled grand piano waveforms, and
hundreds of additional sounds and rhythms - from jazz to techno.
Compact Progressive Hammer-Action
The RD-300SX features Roland's Compact Progressive Hammer-Action
keyboard, which simulates a real grand piano by providing a heavier
touch in the lower octaves that gets increasingly lighter in the upper
range. This keyboard has many of the same design elements as Roland's
acclaimed Progressive Hammer-Action Keyboard, but its keyboard-action
mechanism is much more compact and lightweight.
Simple Navigation
Players will appreciate the RD-300SX's ease of operation and convenient
hands-on controls. Dedicated buttons and knobs are provided for instant
access to the piano sound, EQ settings, and dual/split keyboard setups.
No searching through menus or submenus to find the most common
functions; everything you need is within quick reach. Thanks to the
handy Setup mode, you can quickly store and recall parameter changes
with the touch of a button. A pitch bend/modulation lever has been
added for expressive control. Operation is clean and streamlined so you
can focus on playing, not programming.
High-Quality Effects
For subtle sweetening or complete transformation, the RD-300SX offers a
wide lineup of 78 multi-effect types to choose from, plus independent
effects such as reverb, 2-band digital EQ, and Sound Control. Add
sparkle to your grand piano sound, deep-fry an electric piano, add
depth and spatial movement to strings - the choices are vast.
Lightweight, Compact
It has an impressive, heavy-duty body (with sophisticated black brushed
metal finish) but the RD-300SX is actually one of the lightest 88-note
piano in its class. At less than 35 pounds (15.5kg), it's ultra easy to
transport - yet built tough enough for the rigors of the road.
USB MIDI
Connect the RD-300SX to computers via USB port for one-cable MIDI
communication. Standard MIDI in/out ports connectors are provided as
well. Master, slave, or solo - the RD-300SX can be played as a
standalone instrument, driven from other MIDI gear, or used as the
master controller for an entire MIDI setup.
