Japanese manufacturer of high-end musical instruments and electronic equipment Roland introduced a conceptual model of the digital "piano of tomorrow.
The 50th Anniversary Concept Model is positioned as an instrument "filled with past creativity and future possibilities. The digital piano continues the series of concept models following the experimental GPX-F1 Facet grand piano introduced in 2020.
The new model, created for the 50th anniversary of the Japanese brand, is equipped with innovative drone speakers that hover in the air. The round shape of the tool allows you to place it in the center of the living space. According to the creators, the new model has the acoustic characteristics of a grand piano.
The 50th Anniversary Concept Model was developed in partnership with the Japanese furniture company Karimoku. The instrument was given a single body, resulting in a high-quality timbre and sound field. The piano was created using machine-cut wood technology using Japanese Nara oak wood from Hokkaido Island, as well as 3D printing.
The instrument has a large display that allows you to use different sound options and additional settings, as well as loaded notes. In addition, drones are controlled from the monitor. The description of the piano indicates that the flying speakers seem to "shower the player with a sound shower."
