Roland FP-4
on: January 19, 2009, 10:55:18 PM
I just want to buy this digital piano, but there is no place here to test it.
It looks perfect i just heard a little complain about a "hiss" in the speakers, a little noise, but not everybody have this problem.
Anyway , all i want is to know about this piano does someone have it?
Please tell something about.
thanks!

I tried a 2nd hand one at a music store and it was really shitty. Not sure about the actual value of this machinery but compared to my budget casio, I prefer the casio.

I played all the digital pianos and stage pianos at Sam Ash last weekend.

I liked the Rolands best and the Yamahas only slightly behind.  The Kawai seemed like a good piano but not to my taste.  I'm not a fan of the Casio but a lot of people like them.  Some of this is just preference.

Yes a functional FP4 would be better then a casi, I was just a bit frustrated when I wrote this sorry.
