88 Keys Digital Piano – Hammer Action, 128 Polyphony, Black (098801)

The 098801 Black is the studio-standard voice of the Royalsound 88-key platform: the same full hammer-action digital piano in a black woodgrain cabinet whose flip-top panel hides the entire control surface. Closed, it is a piece of black furniture; opened, it is a 128-polyphony, 360-tone instrument with a full accompaniment engine and three-pedal functionality.

Key Specifications

The Flip-Top Panel: Controls Hidden, Stage Ready

Where most digital pianos wear their buttons permanently, the 098801 Black hides them:

• The full-width flip-top panel closes over the control strip — buttons, LCD and data wheel disappear behind black woodgrain, and the instrument reads as a clean cabinet in the room
• Open it, and the slanted deck presents the LCD display and touch controls at reading angle — the panel geometry real keyboards use on stage
• The red-accented key slip and visible control legends appear only when the lid is up: the practice position announces itself
• For shared spaces — living rooms, classrooms, rehearsal rooms — the closed state ends the “button-poking” problem before it starts

Black Woodgrain: The Studio Standard

Black is the color the music industry paints its serious instruments, and the 098801 Black earns it honestly:

• The woodgrain texture keeps the cabinet warm — closer to a matte studio piano than a glossy consumer keyboard
• It photographs with zero fuss: black instruments anchor any backdrop, from product white to stage dark
• In school procurement, black cabinets survive years of handling without showing wear lines the way lighter finishes do
• Paired with the same black bench, the set presents as one instrument family — the look institutions spec

Product Highlights

Applications

Product Positioning

The 098801 Black shares its platform with the dark rosewood 098801 — identical hammer-action mechanism, 128-polyphony engine and three-pedal unit under two cabinet finishes: black woodgrain for studios and institutions, dark rosewood for living rooms. Both are the top of the Royalsound piano ladder, the destination of children who started on the 18-key grands and climbed through the 25-key and 30-key models.

It shares the production line, tuning bench and certification process with our own consumer brand Musicube — the same instrument family that is already selling on the US retail market under the Musicube name.

Quality & Manufacturing

The cabinet is built with FSC® certified MDF, in compliance with the CARB composite wood ATCM of California Code of Regulations, CARBcompliant™ Phase 2. Batch-level EN 71, ASTM F963 and CCC reports are available for every shipment, issued under your brand name. Every unit is bench-tested for key weighting, polyphony, pedal functions and the flip-top hinge mechanism before packing.

And the paperwork your import process will need — real reports, not templates:

OEM / ODM: Make It Yours

Once the instrument is proven, the next question is how it starts carrying your brand:

• Logo: print on the flip-top panel and fallboard, from low trial quantities.
• Songbook: your brand and your own song selection on the illustrated songbook.
• Finish: black woodgrain and dark rosewood are the two current cabinet schemes — volume orders can match your market’s preferred tone.
• Packaging: the brown box takes a full-color sleeve; engineered flat-pack cartons keep container loading efficient for a 1355 mm instrument.
• Certification: EN 71, ASTM F963 and CCC reports issued under your brand name.

Placing the 098801 Black: Room, Bench and Power

The 098801 Black is a 1355 mm instrument, and a few placement decisions made at delivery pay off for years:

• Wall clearance: the cabinet stands against any wall, but leaving 50 mm behind the back panel lets the sound breathe and keeps the DC 15V power route tidy
• Bench height: the matching bench positions elbows level with the white keys — check it on delivery day, since posture habits form in the first week
• The flip-top panel needs headroom: allow 100 mm above the closed lid so it opens fully without hitting shelves or window sills
• Pedal reach: the sustain / sostenuto / soft unit anchors on the floor bracket — a rug in front of the pedals stops it sliding on hard floors
• For classrooms, plan the headphone hooks on the side panels: one per station keeps cables off the floor between lessons

None of these points costs anything at purchase time — but all of them shape whether the instrument gets played daily a year later.
