Roland FP-E50

Modern Portable Piano with Powerful Entertainment Features

Combining a premium digital piano experience with powerful entertainment features, the Roland FP-E50 is a portable instrument that provides intermediate and advanced players with a complete creative hub for learning, performing, and writing music. Develop authentic piano techniques with the SuperNATURAL Piano engine and 88 weighted-action keys. Explore synthesizers, orchestral voices, and more, with the advanced ZEN-Core sound engine, backed by interactive accompaniments that put you in control of a full band. Connect a mic and sing with vocal effects and real-time harmonies. And go further with Bluetooth audio/MIDI support, onboard audio recording, computer connectivity, and numerous expansion options via Roland Cloud.

Roland offers several stand and pedal options to suit your style. For piano-focused playing at home, the KSFE50 stand and KPD-70 pedal unit (both available separately) create a unified upright look with integrated sustain, soft, and sostenuto pedals. And when you’re on the move, the stage-ready KS-10Z, KS-12, and KS-20X stands deliver a comfortable playing height, while DP-Series pedals add expressivity to your playing.

Musical Inspiration Everywhere You Go

Streamlined Workflow

• While the FP-E50 is filled with advanced features, getting around on the instrument is frustration-free. The top-level display shows sound, tempo, and other essential information, and the clean panel layout provides direct access to sound selection, favorite tones, keyboard transposition, and more.
• Many buttons include long-press functions, allowing you to save settings or tweak deeper parameters without menu diving. And with Scenes, you can instantly recall complete setups for the entire keyboard using single actions.

A Premium Piano Experience

• Whether you’re new to the piano or an experienced player, the FP-E50 provides a rich foundation for learning, practicing, and performing. Roland’s SuperNATURAL Piano sound engine offers the authentic feel and interactive response of an acoustic grand, enabling you to draw out endless tonal colors with your playing dynamics.
• The 88 full-size keys complete the experience, with PHA-4 hammer action, escapement, and Ivory-Feel material providing the same touch beneath your fingers as a world-class acoustic instrument.

A Universe of Sounds, Powered by ZEN-Core

• The FP-E50 also features the expandable ZEN-Core sound engine, the same advanced sound generator used in professional Roland synthesizers like JUPITER-X and FANTOM.
• Explore historic Roland synth sounds, brass and orchestral voices, guitars and basses, world sounds, drums, and many others. Using simple controls, you can freely layer piano and ZEN-Core tones or assign different sounds to the left and right hands.

Your Interactive Backing Band

• With its intelligent auto-accompaniment tools, the FP-E50 puts a full band sound at your command. Choose from nearly 200 onboard music styles newly created by professional composers.
• Drive arrangements with your left-hand fingering, from easy one-note triggering for beginners to full-chord detection for advanced players.
• Interactive mode makes things even more fun, letting you guide the volume and energy of the backing based on how you play. And with the Chord Sequencer function, you can improvise and develop melodies over colorful preset chord progressions that automatically follow the accompaniment.

Plug-In a Mic and Find Your Voice

• Sing along with keyboard performances using the FP-E50’s mic input and studio-grade vocal effects. Liven up the sound with rich ambience and tighten things up with the compressor and noise suppressor.
• Perform with impressive real-time harmonies that magically follow the chords you play. Or surprise audiences with voice transformer effects that change your gender or turn you into a funky robot. There’s even a vocoder for creating vintage electronic voices and choir sounds that you guide with notes on the keyboard.
