Alesis Recital Pro Digital Piano

General

The Alesis Recital Pro is a full-size digital piano with 88 realistic Hammer-Action keys that offer a playing feel to match that of a real acoustic model. 12 sounds are provided, including three pianos as well as organs, strings and bass instruments, as well as a bank of effects, all of which is navigated using an intuitive interface. The Layer function enables you to play two sounds at the same time, so you can make lush combinations of something like strings and bass, whiel the Split function allows you to assign one sound to the left side of the keyboard, and a different sound on the right, so you can play the melody via the strings on the left, and back it with some full bass chords on the right.

Possibilities

The Recital Pro digital piano features Modulation, Reverb and Chorus FX so you can adjust your samples to perfection. It has a set of integrated speakers so you can hear yourself play, but if you need more volume, you can connect the Recital Pro to a set of external speakers by means of the jack connections. Naturally, you can also hook up a set of headphones to play in silence. There's also an input for a sustain pedal (sold separately) for an even more realistic playing experience. Connect this piano to your computer and use it as a virtual instrument with your DAW by means of the USB/MIDI output. The Recital Pro comes with a power adapter but it also works on six D batteries (not included), so you can play it anywhere!

Lesson Mode

Good sounds and an authentic playing feel shouldn't only be available to advanced pianists. If you're just starting out, it's important to have access to high-quality samples like the ones in the Recital Pro's lesson mode. In addition, this mode enables you to divide the keyboard in two so you and your tutor can play the same thing. You can even record your sessions in Record Mode!
