Reviews

Owner Insights

We analyzed real musician discussions from forums and Reddit to find what players love, question, and tweak about Roland FP-7.

Build quality

  • Older Roland FP-7 models use a substandard plastic in the action mechanism, potentially causing weights to bend or fall off with heavy use.

    Source

Features and functionality

  • FP-7's 128-note polyphony and 13W speakers are comparable to current keyboards like the Korg D1 and Kawai ES 110.

    Source
  • A peculiar sustain behavior is noted: only keys held down before pressing the sustain pedal continue sustaining, which might indicate a compatibility or setting issue.

    Source

Comparisons

  • The FP-7 uses Roland's PHA-2 action, which is two generations behind the current PHA-4 action found in newer models.

    Source
  • Owners note that Yamaha DGX-650 offers more sound options, but Roland FP-7 is praised for its superior weighted feel.

    Source

User experience

  • Some users have transitioned from Roland FP-7 to more affordable Casio models, yet miss the FP-7's tactile response.

    Source

Value and pricing

  • At $350, the FP-7 is considered a good deal, comparable to Yamaha DGX-650 in this price range for those prioritizing weighted feel.

    Source

Software and compatibility

  • Some users experience sustain pedal compatibility issues with the Roland FP-7, suggesting potential problems with non-Roland pedals like the Yamaha FC4A.

Critic Reviews

Roland FP7 Reviews

ukpianos.co.uk

The Roland FP-7 impresses with features like the 'Session Partner' and intuitive chord display, enhancing improvisation. It shines as a simpler choice for those not needing complex stage setups, with excellent internal amps and realistic sound, notably in double bass accompaniments. The graded hammer action keys offer satisfying tactile feedback, though some find the escapement mechanism unnecessary. While the keyboard feel is praised, the piano's sound doesn't quite emulate the grandeur of an acoustic grand, leaving some users underwhelmed. Overall, it's a solid choice, especially given its portability and price, but might not thrill purists seeking an authentic grand piano experience.
