Roland - Pack FP-40 Noir + Stand KS 1 + Casque DJH40

The pack therefore comprises three items that meet three very practical needs: a piano for playing and improving your skills, a stand to set it up comfortably, and a pair of headphones for practising in complete privacy.

With the Roland FP-40 Black, you have a digital piano that can easily become the centrepiece of a dedicated practice space. Its 88 PHA-4 Standard keys offer a pleasant ‘Ivory Feel’ under your fingers, with a triple sensor and an escapement mechanism that make playing more nuanced and expressive. The aim is not just to replicate the notes of an acoustic piano, but also to provide a response that better matches the way you play: a light touch, a forceful chord or a passage played very gently are not interpreted in the same way. Piano Reality technology enhances this sensation with natural resonances and smooth transitions, whilst the new speaker system brings greater depth to the bass notes. And if you’re learning, the Piano Sphere app can become a real learning companion with its personalised lessons, progress tracking and musical content. With Bluetooth Audio/MIDI and USB-C, the FP-40 also integrates easily into a digital environment. It comes with the DP-2 pedal, a music stand, the PSB-7U mains adapter with cable, documentation and a 1.5 m USB-C 2.0 cable.

To get the most out of this piano, you’ll need to set it up at a height that suits you. This is precisely where the BoomToneDJ KS-1 comes into its own. This X-shaped stand is easy to assemble and can be adjusted between 650 and 950 mm, allowing you to change the position of the keyboard to suit your setup and playing comfort. This is particularly handy if the piano is to be used by several people or if you want to be able to store it away after a session. The 320 mm arms accommodate the FP-40, which weighs 14 kg – well within the stand’s maximum load capacity of 15 kg. The handles with rubber tips provide welcome protection where they come into contact with the keyboard. Once you’ve found the right height, you’ll have a stable playing station without needing a dedicated piano stand.

And then there are those times when you want to play without filling the whole room with music: a late-night session, a few exercises whilst someone’s watching telly, or simply the desire to work on a passage whilst staying focused. That’s when the Plugger Studio DJH40 really comes into its own. These closed-back headphones let you stay in your own little world and are also suitable for monitoring or listening to music. Their 40 mm neodymium magnet drivers cover a frequency range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz, with an impedance of 32 Ω. Their 2-metre cable gives you plenty of freedom of movement around the piano, and the 6.35 mm jack is supplied with a 3.5 mm mini-jack adapter to suit different sources.
