Explore the Demos
The Demos showcase the variety of stunning Voices and Styles on the
instrument, and give you hands-on experience using it.
Play a Wide Variety of Instrument Voices
This instrument provides you with an
exceptionally wide variety of authentic
sounding instrument Voices, not only
piano Voices but also many others
including Oriental Voices. Musical
expression of those Voices is enhanced in
combination with the newly added joystick.
You can also expand your creative
possibilities further by installing more Voices.
Perform Along with a Backing Band

genres in the world — and let the instrument be
your backing band!
Moreover, this instrument lets you add a greater
selection of Styles to fit your preferences or
performance technique.
