SuperNATURAL EPs

In addition to its piano sounds, the RD-2000 EX features a diverse selection of iconic electric pianos powered by Roland's renowned SuperNATURAL engine. This includes an authentic recreation of the RD-1000, the breakthrough instrument that started the RD story in 1986, and the MKS-20, a classic sound module heard on countless hits. Several vintage-style effects, such as the BOSS CE-1 Chorus Ensemble pedal and Roland SDD-320 Dimension D studio rack unit, provide distinctive color to your sound.
