Roland LX-9 Digital Upright Piano Polished Ebony

Quick Product Summary

The Roland LX-9-PE Digital Upright Piano in Polished Ebony is the flagship model in Roland's premium LX series, combining sophisticated acoustic-piano-inspired response with the flexibility of a modern digital instrument. Piano Reality Modeling, an advanced Hybrid Grand Keyboard and an eight-speaker Piano Reality Projection system work together to deliver exceptional expression, detail and room-filling sound.

Its luxurious high-gloss Polished Ebony cabinet gives the LX-9-PE the appearance and presence of a premium acoustic upright, while Bluetooth, USB audio/MIDI, onboard recording and Roland Piano App compatibility provide extensive options for practice, learning and everyday enjoyment.

What Makes the Roland LX-9-PE Special?

The LX-9 represents the pinnacle of Roland's upright digital piano range. Its long-pivot Hybrid Grand Keyboard combines wood and composite materials with escapement, Ebony/Ivory Feel surfaces, High Precision Sensing and Haptic Key Vibration. This subtle physical feedback helps recreate the connection between player, keyboard and resonating instrument experienced with an acoustic piano.

Its four-way, eight-speaker Piano Reality Projection system distributes different elements of the piano sound across dedicated cabinet, near-field, centre near-field and spatial speakers. Combined with six Piano Reality Ambience environments, Responsive Damper Action and detailed Piano Designer controls, the LX-9 provides extensive expressive control for serious piano playing.

Who Is It For?

The Roland LX-9-PE is designed for advanced students, experienced pianists, acoustic-piano players and families looking for Roland's most sophisticated upright digital piano experience.

It is particularly suited to players who want premium keyboard response and powerful room-filling projection while retaining practical digital advantages such as headphone practice, adjustable volume, recording, wireless connectivity and freedom from regular acoustic-piano tuning.

How does the LX-9 differ from the LX-6?

The LX-9 adds Haptic Key Vibration to the Hybrid Grand Keyboard and expands the speaker system from five speakers to a four-way, eight-speaker Piano Reality Projection system. Its larger cabinet and opening top lid also create a more substantial acoustic-piano-inspired experience.

What is Haptic Key Vibration?

Haptic Key Vibration provides subtle physical feedback through the keyboard, recreating some of the tactile sensation produced by resonating strings and the cabinet of an acoustic piano.

Does the LX-9 use wooden keys?

The Hybrid Grand Keyboard combines wood and durable composite materials, together with a long key pivot, escapement and textured Ebony/Ivory Feel surfaces.

What is Piano Reality Modeling?

Piano Reality Modeling recreates the complex interactions and resonances of an acoustic piano in real time, allowing the instrument to respond naturally to touch, dynamics, articulation and pedal technique.

The LX-9 features a sophisticated eight-speaker Piano Reality Projection system with dedicated cabinet, near-field, centre near-field and spatial speakers.
