Roland F110 SB Digital Piano Satin Black

The F110 is the lastest addition to Roland’s popular compact digital-piano range. Sitting squarely inbetween the FP4 and the DP990, the F110 is a stylish and compact piano, pictured here finished in Satin Black. The sturdy and attractive wooden cabinet measures just 30cm depth, allowing the F-110 to fit easily into bedrooms or any other room with restricted space. A folding-lid covers and protects the keys when closed, and serves as a music stand when open. Unlike some lower priced Roland pianos, the F-110 comes complete with it's stand which houses 3-pedals, set out as you'd find on an acoustic piano.

The keyboard on the Roland F-110 is an 88-key Progressive Hammer Action “PHA alpha II” keyboard, as found on the much more expensive Roland pianos. This gives you the authentic feel of an acoustic grand, with a weightier touch in the lower registers and a lighter touch at the higher notes. The position of the pedals is also smoothly detected, causing the sound to be shaped in response to the depth to which a pedal is pushed. Again, this gives the player a much more natural response, leading to a more expressive playing experience.

Among the other high quality onboard sounds, the sound generator on the F110 produces Roland’s finest 88-key concert grand-piano sound. Each individual note has been individually multi-sampled giving the Roland F110 one of the most realistic grand piano sounds on a keyboard in this price range. Along with this is an onboard metronome, song recorder, 3 band digital equaliser and a reverb as well as split key and twin piano keyboard modes. The built in speakers produce a rich, warm tone and there's also a standard headphone socket for silent practice, MIDI in/out for computer connectivity and a stereo line out for recording or plumbing into a live PA system.

In summary the Roland F110 provides the following benefits :-

Modern cabinet design – ideal if space is an issue or if you just want something a little more contemporary
Multi-sampled piano sound - each note uses sound recorded from a quality acoustic grand piano, giving the player an expressive sound for an authentic performance
Natural key touch – the Progressive hammer action keyboard gives a natural, acoustic piano touch
Three pedals – Damper/sostenuto/soft – these replicate accurately those of a grand piano
Built-in metronome – ideal for practising your timing
Stylish folding lid – also doubles as a full-length music rest. Ideal for pieces with lots of page turns.
Attractive, modern finishes – available in either satin white or satin black.

When it comes to choosing a digital piano it is important to know which features on your shopping list are “must have” and which “nice but not essential” ones you can get away without paying extra for. The Roland F110 sits somewhere between the RP101 and the DP990 in that it features elements from both.

The F110 has the same keyboard action as the RP101 whereas the more expensive DP990 includes the escapement mechanism. I must admit the Roland F110 looks a lot better than the RP101 mimicking that contemporary styled cabinet of the DP990. The F110 also has a better sound engine than the RP101 as it utilises Roland’s newer chipset which includes over 300 authentic sounds.

The three track recording featured on the F110 is also a bonus and at around a thousand pounds, it's easy to see that you really can find a piano with extensive features at a sensible price. Come and check out the Roland F110 Digital Piano now at the Nevada Music Warehouse.
