Coupled with a Progressive Damper Action pedal, learners can practice advanced pedaling techniques—including seamless half‑pedaling—laying the groundwork for nuanced musicianship.

Bluetooth® audio/MIDI connectivity integrates smartphones and tablets into each session, allowing streaming of backing tracks and use of interactive learning apps. The Roland Piano App extends functionality with remote control of sounds, metronome settings, and recording, plus fun lesson games, goal tracking, and sheet‑music display. Onboard recording and a versatile metronome further support structured, effective practice.
