Introduction:
Welcome to the most comprehensive F140R Roland Digital Piano Review you’ll ever need: honest, to the point, balanced, and from someone who plays them professionally. Stu Harrison at Merriam Pianos guides you through every aspect of the F140R, from its action and sound, to its features and connectivity options.
Please be sure to check out our full reviews of Roland digital pianos, including their FP and DP series, and of course, if it’s your first time to the channel, we’d love it you subscribed!
Action:
The Roland F140R features their PHA-4 Ivory-touch action with escapement, which is a pro-level action found in instruments all the way up to (and above) the $2000 price point. In fact, the F140R has exactly the same action and ‘brain’ as the RP501 at more than $500 above, which makes the F140r an exceptional value for people not in need of a full cabinet and want to source their own bench (the RP501r comes with a proper Roland bench, bigger speakers and a full cabinet).
Additionally, the PHA-4 is the exact same action that you’ll find in the FP30 and FP60. It has a very well executed ‘faux’ ivory keytop feel and ebony feel on the black keys, a believable escapement simulation, and a rugged physical construction that doesn’t give off unreasonable mechanical sounds or ‘clunks’.
Although it doesn’t list it in all literature, the PHA-4 is a triple sensor action, meaning that the midi output from the F140R is ‘studio grade’, making it a great home-production companion as well.
Tone:
The F140r is driven by Roland’s widely-acclaimed Supernatural Sound Engine, with ample polyphony and lots of editable parameters in the “Piano Designer” app. The onboard speakers sound roughly similar to an FP30 (or a former FP50 for those that remember that model), with a reasonably round tone that doesn’t feel too hollow, despite not having a thunderous bass.
The quality of the patches is extremely good for the most part, with only the occasionally ‘meh’ patch through the e-pianos or organ patches. By and large, there’s at least one extremely high-quality, professional tone in each category to use.
Other Features
The Bluetooth connectivity is another impressive inclusion for the price range, especially given that the Yamaha equivalents such as the YDP series, don’t offer any Bluetooth connectivity whatsoever. The triple pedal system with constant sensing technology is a nice added touch of authenticity as well, and the light-weight but rugged integrated stand still makes the F140r somewhat portable without sacrificing the look of ‘furniture’.
Conclusions
The F140r offers a feature-packed, compact, and contemporary-looking digital piano that should be totally sufficient for beginners as well as hobbyist players looking for an easy-to-use, good sounding digital piano. The instrument is substantially more engaging to use with a smart-phone or tablet, so definitely spend the time to make sure you understand how to use the Bluetooth connections, and we’d also recommend using the F140 with a high-quality set of headphones to take full advantage of the Supernatural Sound Engine,.
