Stunning Piano Sound
The RG-3 is equipped with Roland’s finest 88-key concert grand sound, featuring individual multisamples for every key. It’s touch responsive to the subtlest pressure and nuance — from the deepest, most powerful bass to the most delicate high notes.

Authentic Grand-Piano Feel
For the most authentic acoustic grand piano feel, the RG-3 incorporates Roland’s PHA II “Ivory Feel” keyboard with Escapement. This amazing new keyboard technology reproduces the real feel of ivory for the natural keys and ebony for the sharps. The natural keys have a 2-piece structure, which consists of base- and surface-material layers. This reproduces stability, natural touch, and comfort of a real acoustic-piano keyboard.

Built-In Speaker System
The RG-3 delivers a rich, realistic acoustic grand piano sound with its onboard 4-speaker sound system. Volume issues are a thing of the past; you can simply adjust the volume of the internal sound system up or down to suit the environment. If you wish to practice in private, the RG-3 offers a headphone output as well.

Song Load & Playback Features
The RG-3 can play songs by itself* — ideal for parties and gatherings. Simply load any Standard MIDI File into the RG-3, and enjoy as your favorite songs play back automatically. The RG-3 is equipped with a USB port that can be used to input Standard MIDI Files and audio (.wav) files; just connect an external CD-ROM drive or a USB flash memory device, sold separately. *Note: While the RG-3 can play songs automatically, it does not have the player-piano-type “moving keys” feature of the RG-7.

Slideshow Display can Inform and Attract Customers
Using the RG-3’s built-in USB port, you can import your own digital images and display them as a slideshow on an external screen. Display your menu, list of events, or coming attractions — anything you want to broadcast visually to your customers.
