It’s no secret that Roland is a leader in digital piano technology, which has been the case for more than 4 decades. The FP series of portable all-in-one digital pianos were released in the early ’90s to many accolades. The FP series has ever since been a mainstay of Roland’s lineup, with upgraded models seeing the light of day every several years.

To mark the 30 year anniversary of this successful line, Roland has launched the latest generation of the FP series in the form of the FPX series. Building on the success of the FP-30, widely regarded as one of if not the top instruments in its class, the FP-30X looks poised and ready to continue this long line of success.

The acoustic piano experience is faithfully recreated as Roland once again raises the bar and essentially issues a formal challenge to the rest of the class. The FP-30X stands tall against competitive products from Yamaha, Kawai, and Casio, with arguably the top action in the class. Add Roland’s legendary durability with the latest tech, the FP-30X serves up an all-around package that will turn the heads of even the most seasoned industry professionals, and beginners alike.

Upgrades over the FP30 include

• Polyphony increased to 256 notes
• 21 additional onboard tones for a total of 56
• Bluetooth Audio
• Twin ¼” outputs
• Increased Data playback options
• Compatibility with new Piano Everyday app
