- Weight0.21 kg
This little sound module packs a surprising amount of piano modelling into a tiny box. You get realistic string resonance and even half-pedal support, plus a massive library of 127 sounds for anything from grand pianos to mallet instruments. It connects via USB or audio jacks and runs 256 voices polyphonically, making it great for backing tracks or solo practice. Because it is so small and light, it fits easily in a bag but lacks its own power source, so you need an external supply. It is a budget-friendly option for players who want big sound without carrying a full keyboard.
Pros
- Realistic string and sympathetic resonance modelling
- Half pedal sustain function included
- Large library of 127 distinct sounds
Cons
- Tiny footprint of only 60mm height

Questions
What should I look for when buying sound modules?
Key factors include build quality, sound characteristics, playability, brand reputation, warranty coverage, and value for money. Consider your musical style, skill level, and intended use to find the best match.
How much should I spend on sound modules?
Budget depends on your needs and experience level. Beginners can find quality options for $200-500, intermediate players should consider $500-1500 range, while professionals often invest $1500+ for premium features.
Are expensive sound modules worth the investment?
Higher-priced sound modules typically offer better materials, craftsmanship, and performance. They're worth it if you're serious about music, perform regularly, or need professional-grade features.
What are the best brands for sound modules?
Top brands combine quality, innovation, and reliability. We evaluate brands based on build quality, sound performance, durability, and customer satisfaction to recommend the best options for different budgets.
