Features of the KAWAI KDP 120:

Responsive Hammer Compact II Mechanism

The KDP120 is equipped with the RHC II mechanism, inspired by the renowned design of the RH mechanism, for a playing experience reminiscent of an acoustic grand piano. This mechanism accurately reproduces the natural movement of keys, without springs, thus providing a smooth and realistic interpretation. With graded key weight, reflecting the heaviness of hammers in the bass and lightness in the treble, as well as escapement simulation, pianists can rehearse their repertoire with confidence.

Exceptional Concert Piano Sounds

Thanks to Progressive Harmonic Imaging technology, the KDP120 faithfully reproduces the sound of the prestigious Kawai-EX concert piano. This unique sampling method captures the most subtle nuances, offering an extended dynamic range and smooth tonal transitions across the entire keyboard.

Advanced Functions

In addition to superb acoustic piano sounds, the KDP120 offers a variety of additional instruments, such as electric pianos, organs, harpsichords, vibraphones, and strings. With Dual mode, you can layer two sounds, such as an acoustic piano and a string ensemble, to create rich and complex sound textures, stimulating your musical creativity.

Grand Feel Pedal System

The KDP120 digital piano is recognized as one of the most realistic digital pianos in its category, thanks to the use of the Grand Feel pedal system. This system accurately mimics the Soft, Sostenuto, and Sustain pedals of a Shigeru Kawai SK-EX concert grand piano. It offers an authentic and immersive playing experience.

Extended Connectivity

The KDP120 piano is equipped with USB-MIDI and MIDI IN/OUT jacks for connecting to a computer for composition annotation or to other MIDI devices such as a synthesizer. The two headphone jacks allow two people to study together without noise. They can also be used by two pianists to practice simultaneously with a single instrument.

Headphone Experience

The KDP120 offers advanced technology called SHS (Spatial Headphone Sound) when using headphones or an audio headset. This technology enhances the depth and realism of the instrument's various sounds while reducing listening fatigue during prolonged use. There are three predefined sound environments available. When listening with headphones, you can customize your audio experience by simulating different types of headphones. These types include open, semi-open, closed, or in-ear, for optimal sound quality.
