Attractive Design
The slim, classic design looks great in any home.
Realistic Keyboard
The full-size keyboard has 88 hammer-action keys that perfectly replicate the feel of an acoustic piano. Lower keys are heavier than higher keys, and the sophisticated touch response allows you to play with great nuance, expression, and detail.
Pedal Expression
Three metal pedals are provided that allow you to control your dynamics for an expressive performance.
Professional-Quality Sound
Over 300 different realistic voices are provided, allowing you to recreate the sound of several different instruments.

Built-In Speakers
The high-quality stereo speaker system provides full, rich sound right out of the box.
Connectivity
A wealth of connectors include 1/4" I/O for connecting speakers, recorders, CD players, and more. MIDI I/O allows you to connect a computer or a variety of MIDI devices.

Recording
A built-in recorder allows you to record a song with up to three tracks. You can also use the piano's outputs to connect an external recorder.
Effects
Digital effects, including Reverb, Dynamics, 3D, Damper Resonance, Key Off Resonance, and String Resonance allow you to create a richer sound.
Metronome and Tuning
