Wow, so sorry Andy and anyone watching for the amount of times I "Steamroller" the conversation in this video with my interruptions. Perhaps a mixture of genuine excitement about the product and also a Red Bull for lunch contributed to my over zealos "butting" in but that doesn't make in any more excusable. Sorry again and all credit to Andy for getting the key points across throughout with out stopping to give me slap!! Wishing everyone the best X

Absolutely love this video. A Roland guy explaining MainStage. Awesome!

Hello from the Colonies, (Arkansas) Today I bought a RD-88 🎹and thanks to your video's, and a tax return helps some as well. You and the Video's helped make the decision easier. compatible🎹

Wait - can you monitor any vst's installed in Logic through the RD-88 speakers, whilst also layering Roland patches, whilst also sending all of that through the outputs?! If so, that's hella mega! 😮❤️

Also I'm a long time fan of these vids - they're super informative, have helped me make decisions, and I'm not in the least afraid to say I've deffo a hint of man crush on Jack and those fiiine piano skills ❤️🙌 hope you're all doing well in these times! Xx

Great Video! I actually tried blending my piano sound with mainstage but encountered a problem. When I tried to adjust the piano tone volume with the control knob, it is sending midi data and effecting the volume of my software synth. Is there a way to stop this?

[bradprince]

I would love to apply this but I do not use Apple products. Let me know if there is an alternative to Apple's MainStage. Thanks.

Could you make a video of the best way to connect the RD-88 and the Mac? It's not in the list of Roland keyboards in Control Surface Setup in Logic. I'm using a midi connection through my Clarett 4pre thunderbolt interface and it's not being recognized. :(

[cresshead]

rd88 and ipad with camera connection kit (usb midi)?

[wolfhlm]

No, no Jack, need no regrets. Stay as you are, stay physically related. The more connection the more chance to harmonise.
Love your spontanity. Sure, Andy does.

Is the rd88 audio interface class compliant with IOS as well?

[dekzan]

Please, Is the RD88 acoustic piano SuperModuling an improvement or same as RD 2000 ?

[algarvemike]

Is the USB interface “class compliant” so my iPad can be connected and output through the RD88’s outputs?
Thanks ever so much in advance

[mr.c]

Is there a PC equivalent to Apple Mainstage to which can be used with the Roland RD-88? We do not use Apple products at home.

[seanleeduncan]

When playing Mainstage presets, will the sound come out of the RD-88 speakers? Thanks

[arvinzuniega]

What speakers they used? Is it the built-in or a different one?

[KIsaac-wpdq]

Is all the buttons are assignable for midi or only knobs in this roland RD88 .

[sobbsaroonie]

Guys I played the rd88 at guitar center today. I'm in USA. I love the keyboard and action is finominal.
I am disappointed with speakers as I want to maybe play nursing homes or jewelry stores around Christmas time and use the mic.
I was messing around and hit the "key touch" button then I adjusted the "Velocity" from "Real" and incremented it up to 100 to 125. You literally get almost twice the volume out of those speakers its actually very loud but keys are very sensitive. But if you now lower the volume a bit it sounds pretty good with still more volume out of those speakers.
My question " what the heck did I do?"


It must set the key velocity like your slamming down on them when your really not. But is this a legit way to get more volume out of these speakers. Can you guys try this and let me know. I wonder also if this effects the mic volume as well I really want to get on of these puppies
Thanks any advice appreciated.
Thanks Mj.

can you demo dual split Piano/LH bass with a Rhythm also please?

[ElektronicCricket]

nice piano but there’s no a gig bag for this with the right dimensions ( it’s a stage piano!)the accessories are out of date. (Roland website) 🤔

[TheSoundtec]

Why is there no Midi in ? USB is useless as you end up with a Ground loop.
