Exceptional Expression

The LX-5 combines the rich, resonant tone of a premium grand piano with the immediate expressiveness of a digital piano. Unlike sampled pianos, which simply trigger pre-recorded sounds, Roland’s Piano Reality Modeling approach recreates every aspect of an acoustic piano’s sound, providing a truly unique musical experience.

Endless Inspiration

Enjoy limitless tonal and expressive possibilities that seamlessly adapt to your playing. Gentle key presses produce a majestic, soft resonance, while increasing intensity results in a bright tone that reflects your dynamic touch. Boundless performances await.

True-to-Touch Response

Developing proper technique requires no compromises in keyboard action. The authentic weighted response allows for nuanced control even in the most demanding technical passages. The innovative PHA-50 hybrid keyboard provides the feel of high-quality acoustic piano keys under your fingers, combined with durability that won’t let you down.

Shape Your Sound Environment

Want to hear your performance in a studio, living room, concert hall, or cathedral? Instantly immerse yourself in four acoustic settings with Piano Reality Ambience, delivered through the four-speaker Piano Reality Projection sound system. Or, use headphones to enjoy beautiful music without disturbing others.

Outstanding Design

Whether placed at the center of a room or tucked into a corner, the compact LX-5 design fits into nearly any space. Its classic upright styling makes a striking addition to various interior styles. Want a piano on an upper floor or in a basement? The LX-5 comes in two separate boxes, making installation on any level easy.

Personalize Your Sound

If you want to adjust the LX-5’s tone, there’s no need to call a tuner. You can easily customize tonal characteristics with features like string tuning and temperament, resonance, key sensitivity, and more.
