    Compact Progressive Hammer Action
    The KR-103 is outfitted with Roland’s Compact Progressive Hammer-Action keyboard, which simulates a real grand piano by providing a heavier touch in the lower octaves that gets increasingly lighter in the upper range. It has many of the same design elements as Roland’s acclaimed Progressive Hammer-Action Keyboard.

    Great Sounds
    The KR-103’s sounds are vibrant and realistic. Many of the sounds have been refined and processed to provide added color and impact. Combined with the new amplification system, the KR-103’s sounds will inspire and impress, from crystal clear high end to powerful low frequencies.

    LCD
    Navigating a state-of-the-art instrument has never been friendlier, thanks to the KR-103’s attractive LCD with accompanying front-panel buttons. No more fumbling to find the right menu or button.

    Music Assistant
