Roland’s Next-generation Flagship FP Digital Piano

The Roland FP-90X is the flagship of the latest generation of the company’s award-winning FP series digital pianos, and it benefits from decades of cutting-edge technological development to bring you a refined acoustic grand piano playing experience at home, onstage, or in the studio. Roland’s acclaimed PureAcoustic Piano Modeling sound engine with limitless polyphony delivers stunningly authentic sound and response. Your fingers will savor the sumptuous touch of Roland’s PHA-50 keyboard with Escapement and Ebony/Ivory Feel keys, as the FP-90X’s onboard speaker system fills the room with a rich, powerful sound that’s ideal for home playing and intimate live performances. Enhance your music with sounds curated from Roland’s flagship instruments, and shape them to perfection with the built-in effects engine. The FP-90X also boasts educational features such as Dual, Split, and Twin Piano keyboard modes and dual headphone outputs with breathtaking Headphones Acoustic Projection technology, as well as generous connectivity with audio and MIDI via Bluetooth and USB, for wireless streaming to and from your smart device and integration with your computer-based DAW setup.

Roland’s acclaimed PureAcoustic Piano Modeling sound engine

Not many digital pianos get as close to sounding and feeling like an acoustic instrument as Roland’s FP-90X. With its PureAcoustic Piano Modeling sound engine, you get an intimate and customizable connection with your keyboard. Each note can be shaped to respond to your touch and dynamics with the tone and harmonic accuracy you desire. The PureAcoustic Piano Modeling engine features limitless polyphony; the FP-90X is equipped with a robust 256-note polyphony for non-piano voices. Drawing upon Roland’s rich sonic legacy, the FP-90X’s PureAcoustic Piano Modeling sound engine gives you authentic pianos and electric pianos that can take you from pristine sparkle to funky grit — plus a curated selection of premium acoustic and electronic sounds from Roland’s historic legacy.

PHA-50 keyboard with Escapement

Roland’s premium 88-note PHA-50 keyboard combines wood and molded materials for superior feel and durability, enhancing the sensation that you’re playing a fine acoustic grand piano. With authentic hammer action and Escapement, the FP-90X keyboard communicates every nuance of expression in your playing. Whether you’re playing hard or barely tickling the keys, you’re in control on a responsive keyboard that reacts to every nuance of your touch and technique. Roland’s top-of-the-line action, the PHA-50 incorporates Escapement (also called let-off), which provides the subtle “notch” you feel when you press the keys of a grand piano very softly. A feature of grand pianos not found on uprights, Escapement allows you to quickly repeat notes without fully releasing the key. Lastly, simulated Ebony and Ivory Feel key surfaces wick away moisture from your fingers for a supremely comfortable and authentic acoustic grand piano playing experience.

Powerful built-in speaker system fills the room with full, rich sound

You don’t need to worry about carting around or hooking up an external sound system when you’re playing your Roland FP-90X. That’s because Roland outfitted this instrument with a powerful multi-amped stereo speaker system. The speakers are strategically integrated into the FP-90X chassis, so you and your listeners are enveloped in the lush soundscape of your performance. Small touches matter, and at Sweetwater, we particularly appreciate how the FP-90X’s onboard 3-band equalizer easily adjusts its sound to fit the venue.

Plays like a real acoustic grand. Speakers are horrible. Keys are the best in the industry second to none

Roland nailed it when they were trying to emulate a real grand piano. The sound and feel are so excellent that unless you play it like an acoustic you won't get the right sound. Upon start up I played it and couldn't believe that a combination of 50 watt speakers could sound that bad........they do. I've been to this dance with Roland before and simply plugged $100 Mackie speakers into the headphones and BOOM there was the sound I was looking for. Beautiful and classical on the high end. Nice deep sound (if you pluck it) on the low end. As is always the case the 70s suitcase is PHat and awesome to play blues or R&B with. Know what you're buying here or you'll regret it. If your a piano purist that insists on a great keybed. Look no further. It'll serve me well for years to come.

Best ever

I have had Roland products for over 30 years and never been disappointed. Things just keep getting better. I love the new 90X. It is as near perfect I can imagine. The 60 watts of amplification is a major improvement. Glad I spent themoney. Thanks, Pete

Great digital piano

Replaced a keyboard that wasn't 88 key. This one has a very good sound and nice weighted keys, giving it the feel of a regular piano.
Rated 5/5

An excellent digital piano

I purchased this as an upgrade to my previous piano (Casio PX-1000). The Casio is fine, especially for the price, but this one is superior in every way. Solidly built, great action, great sounds; just a pleasure to play. I am looking forward to many years of enjoyment. Thanks, Paul E. for your help!
Rated 4.5/5

A great digital piano

The Roland FP-90X replaced the FP 90 with a more powerful chip that helps provide unlimited polyphony. It has Dual, Split, and Twin Piano keyboard modes as well as dual headphone outputs. MIDI. Bluetooth and USB, for wireless streaming to and from your smart device and integration with your computer-based DAW setup. It has a built in metronome with several different sounds including someone speaking 1, 2, 3, 4 in English or Japanese. Personally I prefer the Japanese.

One of the most important things when deciding on a keyboard piano is how does it sound. With the FP-90X, they provide the upgraded PureAcoustic Piano Modeling, as well as the older Super Natural sound engine that is in the FP-60X and FP30X. The piano sounds of the 90X are really good but I will admit they don't sound as good as some VST pianos software like Ivory 2. However, as the PureAcoustic is modeling and not samples, you can really customize things. From adjusting the piano lid down, in the middle, or high. You can adjust the sound board and get different options to suite your taste as well. One soundboard gives the sound of my friends baby grand piano. In checking out some reviews on Youtube, some reviewers said the higher end of the FP-90X can sound a little shrill or hard out of the speakers. I have to admit I agree with them. Some may like it for certain styles, but it's not to my taste. The good news is, you can go into the Function button and also adjust the character of every single key on the piano. For my taste I took the 2nd C above middle C and above and adjusted the sound of every key. I moved the setting from center to -1. This reduced the slight shrill and gave a little bit of a warmer sound. I really am impressed with Roland and providing all these options. Out of the competition out there in a similar price range.

The keys and how they feel are very important aspect in choosing a keyboard piano. I found Roland's premium PHA-50 keyboard with wood and plastic hybrid keys to be excellent and close to a real piano. The 4 speakers with (2x25-watt main, 2x5-watt tweeters) provides a rich, powerful sound. Then the built-in 3-band EQ is also very handy. It supports Roland's Piano Partner 2, Apple's GarageBand for iOS, and other music creation apps. The keyboard Includes DP-10 damper pedal. Its not a perfect digital piano, but in its price range, its pretty good.
The other sounds from Rhodes, harpsicord, and strings is nice. By combing strings, choir ahs, or some Roland D 50 sounds with the piano sound and have separate volume controls for each sound provides great flexibility. All in all, this is a very good keyboard piano that is built very well and solid.

Simply put, modern electronic music wouldn't exist without Roland. Many of the electronic musicians here at Sweetwater cut our teeth on TR Rhythm machines and fondly remember programming our first TB-303s. We owe a good part of our careers to this amazing and innovative company. It's been fun to watch and grow right alongside Roland, as they've introduced wave after wave of revolutionary keyboards, digital pianos, and more. For example, Roland's V-Drum Kits continuously redefine the possibilities of electronic drums, beginning with SuperNATURAL technology to the latest Prismatic Sound Modeling. We're huge fans, and we'd love to tell you all about them. Whether you want a pocket-sized synth or a cutting-edge video mixer, if Roland makes it, then Sweetwater is 100% behind it.
