Kawai has been manufacturing musical instruments for over 90 years, maintaining traditional processes while incorporating the latest technological innovations. This experience enables our engineers to develop outstanding digital instruments time and time again.
The combination of impressive concert grand piano sounds and a keyboard with an authentic feel, make the KDP120 an inspiring instrument. It also features Bluetooth technology, built-in lesson tracks and a handy song recorder. This makes the KDP120 an ideal choice for experienced players looking for a second instrument to practice quietly with headphones, or as an entry-level instrument for beginners.
or as an entry-level instrument for beginners. The new KDP120: an excellent introduction to the world of Kawai digital pianos at an attractive price.
The KDP120 reproduces the special sound of the handcrafted and world-renowned Shigeru Kawai SKEX concert grand piano. All 88 keys of this exceptional instrument have been recorded and are faithfully reproduced when played on the KDP120 - thanks to Harmonic Imaging technology.
The Responsive Hammer Compact II (RHCII) keyboard action in the KDP120 is designed to authentically reproduce the fine, natural touch of an acoustic grand piano. The springless design of the keyboard naturally adapts the feel of moving
hammers in a natural way. In addition to graduated hammer weighting, the RHCII keyboard action is equipped with Kawai's 3-way sensor system to provide an even more authentic playing feel. Thanks to this system, you can, for example, strike a note again before releasing the key completely.
The KDP120 is equipped with Bluetooth MIDI technology, which allows wireless communication with supported smart devices. Once paired with a smartphone or tablet, musicians can control the KDP120 using the PianoRemote app or extend its functionality with a selection of music-related apps.
