As your love for the piano deepens, you need an instrument that offers the tone, touch, and technology to inspire even greater expression and enjoyment. The Roland HP601 is your ideal next step, providing authentic grand piano sound and true hammer-action touch with Ivory Feel keys to support maturing skills and more nuanced playing expressions. It also includes integrated Bluetooth® for wirelessly connecting with apps like Roland’s Piano Partner 2 and Piano Designer on your favorite mobile device, accelerating learning and enhancing your playing experiences. Offering exceptional piano performance, built-in education features, and modern connectivity, the affordable HP601 is the perfect instrument to stimulate musical growth and allow budding talents to blossom.
An important part of improving on the piano is carefully listening to your playing to understand how your expressions influence the sound. But if your instrument isn’t capable of faithfully reproducing them, it’s impossible to properly evaluate your progress. The HP601’s SuperNATURAL Piano engine with 288-note polyphony delivers the rich, expressive tone of an acoustic grand piano in every way, with complex, dynamic sound that tonally changes in response to the way you play. This enables you to fully recognize and develop the vital interaction between sound and touch, which is at the very heart of playing the piano at a higher level.
Equipped with Roland’s flagship PHA-50 keyboard, the HP601 further supports the important sound/touch interaction with ultra-responsive sensing that translates every subtle playing nuance. The keyboard combines wood sides with durable molded materials, providing a traditional grand piano look and the feel of ebony and ivory with no worries about costly reliability issues down the road. The HP601 also includes three integrated pedals that support progressive and half-pedal control. This capability is required to play more advanced piano pieces, and is not available on instruments that employ less sophisticated pedal switches.
The HP601 is equipped with variety of onboard features for practice and musical growth. Over 350 ready-to-play songs include traditional music, classical masterpieces by Mozart and Beethoven, and famous piano etudes from Hanon and Czerny. There’s also a convenient onboard metronome with variable time signatures, providing an essential tool to develop your sense of timing. A handy onboard recorder captures your playing to USB flash media, allowing you to check your progress and share music with friends and family. And when you want to play side by side with a teacher or friend, you can activate Twin Piano mode and split the keyboard into two 44-note pianos, each with their own middle C.
With the HP601’s onboard Bluetooth technology, you can wirelessly connect with your iOS or Android device for instant enjoyment and enhanced learning. To start, you’re able to play along with your favorite songs in your smartphone or tablet as the audio streams through the piano’s onboard speakers or headphones. Roland’s unique Piano Partner 2 app takes things even further by augmenting and enhancing the HP601’s many onboard features. It shows digital notation for the piano’s internal songs, and you can even turn pages with the pedals. There’s also a variety of fun backing rhythms, letting you build your timing with pop, jazz, blues, and other music styles. And with the app’s cool diary feature, you’re able to track your practice progress with stat logs and daily notes.
As your piano skills evolve, your personal sound tastes will too. With the HP601, you have a variety of options to customize the piano for your individual style and touch. The powerful Piano Designer function allows you to personalize grand piano tones by adjusting the various tonal elements that affect the sound, including string resonance, the resonance characteristics produced when using the pedals, and more. It’s even possible to fine-tune each note by separately adjusting tuning, volume, and tone character for all 88 keys. The HP601 is also compatible with the free Piano Designer app, which allows you to use your tablet device to make customization even easier.
Along with its world-class grand pianos, the HP601 includes sounds like electric piano, organ, strings, woodwinds, and more, allowing you to explore a variety of popular music styles. From the panel, it’s possible to layer and play two tones at the same time, such as piano and strings. Or you can split the keyboard to play different tones with each hand, such as organ with the right hand and piano with the left. When you find a favorite combination, you can store it in one of 25 registrations for instant recall later. And from the Piano Partner 2 app, you have quick access to hundreds of additional sounds in a variety of categories.
With its modern digital approach, the HP601 eliminates all the downsides of owning an acoustic piano. First and foremost, the advanced sound engine never needs tuning or other regular maintenance, saving you lots of time and money. Another prime advantage is the ability to play quietly with headphones. The innovative Headphones 3D Ambience technology in the HP601 optimizes the audio so it sounds like it’s coming from within the piano itself, enabling you to practice for extended periods of time without fatigue, day or night. If you already have an acoustic piano, the HP601 is an ideal second instrument to place in a spare room for night practice. And with a choice of Contemporary Rosewood, Contemporary Black, and White finishes, you can perfectly match the instrument to suit your home’s décor.

Keysound reviews
Yamaha CSP295-PE Piano
Keysound are the most knowledgeable And helpful people ever I cannot rate them high enough. Our Piano was delivered on time and the guys told me at the time that the packaging was damaged when they unpacked the piano they found it to be damaged and told me before I even seen it. I had the choice to send it back then or keep it until the replacement was found. I kept it within two weeks. I’ve got a Piano. First rate service all around. I would highly recommend them
Yamaha PSRSX600 Keyboard
Absolutely fantastic service from Steve at Keysound. Expert advice, really friendly and helpful. Will be going back to store for some add ons very soon!
Korg PA5X Bonus USB Accessories
The service was extreme good in the item was downloaded to me almost immediate after my payment had been cleared into a USB stick.
No problem in transferring the information form the USN to the Pa5c
Yamaha CSP275-WH Piano

Roland Fantom 06 Keyboard
I have purchased several keyboards from Keysound , and you always get a good service. You get a more personal experience, and they are always willing to take time to find you the best keyboard which suits your needs. After sales is also good, as they will help you with your new keyboard should you get stuck on anything.
Yamaha Pre-Owned Genos XL Keyboard
Nothing too much trouble and great after sales support and assistance.
Korg PA5X61 Keyboard
Great personalised friendly service, extremely knowledgeable of the products. I would recommend Keysound, especially to those who require additional support or aftercare with the products they purchase.
Casio CTX5000 Keyboard
Keysound were excellent. Other music shops take a generic approach about what people want and they have limited experience across multiple types of instruments. Keysound were interested in me and exacty what I wanted. They interpreted that and gave me invaluable advice. It was friendly, focused and specific. I would definitely recommend them and buy from then again. I also really like their view that buying a keyboard from them is just the start of the journey. They are there for in-person and online/on phone advice and help. I am extremely pleased with my purchase - which is not what I thought I'd be buying when I entered their shop.
Kawai CN301-B Piano
Very knowledgeable and helpful to make sure we got the correct piano for us
Yamaha Genos 2XL Keyboard
Steve and his staff were excellent. They spent a lot of time explaining and demonstrating various digital pianos and keyboards. After a few days deliberating I chose a different option to what I had set out to buy. The knowledge and service was second to none and inspired me to become a better player. I am very pleased with my purchase and looking forward to many hours of keyboard playing. Thank you
Roland HP702-CH Piano
I am so pleased I chose to visit Keysound Hinckley and purchase my new piano from them!!
I went in store to browse as I haven't bought a new piano in about 15 years, and the person who helped me (Sorry, I didn't get his name!) was so so helpful and knowledgable. I purchased my piano and within a week got the call to arrange delivery the following weekend!
The piano is amazing, but unfortunately has an issue with one of the keys. And rather than sending someone over to fix it, the manager called me yesterday to say they'll arrange for the piano to be replaced with a new one!! He said he would be happy if a brand new piano already had an issue, so he'd rather I have a brand new one. Honestly, couldn't ask for better service and nicer people :) Thank you so so much.
Roland HP704-DR Piano
Good customer service from staff who knew their product. Plenty of time given for testing each instrument and making up mind.
Yamaha Pre-Owned P515-B Piano
Keysounds service was absolutely Fantastic, I can not rate them highly enough. The Piano I really wanted was unfortunately discontinued, they called me to explain in person and then managed not only find a preowned one that was in brand new condition but they found all the correct packaging so when I received it I thought it was actually brand new! That showed a level of care and customer service I haven’t seen for years! They also immediately refunded a portion of the cost which was a bonus as I could then buy the stool l wanted ( not from Keysounds )
If all companies delivered care & Service like Keysounds it would be a far better Country for everyone! Well done
