Starting Out
Main Features
■ Authentic Piano Performances
High-quality concert grand piano tones, combined with the Progressive Hammer Action
keyboard, which provides more realistic piano touch, with a heavier feel in the low end
and a lighter feel in the upper notes, let you enjoy truly authentic piano performances.
■ Five Tones for Use in a Wide Variety of Musical Genres
The DP-1000 features not only piano tones, but four different internal tones that you can
use in a variety of musical genres.
■ Includes High-Quality Reverb
The DP-1000’s reverb function can add rich reverberation (sound that is reflected off the
walls of a room) to the instrument sounds, making it sound as if you are playing in a
concert hall.
■ Compact and Flat Design goes well with any interior
Closing the keyboard lid creates a flat surface.
Its compact, simple design fits in with almost any room decor.
