Lightweight, High-performance Stage Piano from Kurzweil
Loaded with amazing sounds and features, the Kurzweil SP7 88-key Stage Piano is powered by the company’s next-generation A.T.S.T. (Authentic Timbre Synthesis Technology) architecture. Based on a custom semiconductor, A.T.S.T. allows for high-fidelity audio and streamlined sound programming while facilitating seamless velocity layer transitions. With 256 notes of polyphony, you’ll never run out of voices for even your most complex and richly layered performances. And with two gigs of factory sounds and 307 expertly crafted presets onboard, sonic inspiration is a button press away! Whether you’re rocking Rachmaninoff or a blistering synth lead, keyboard feel is everything. Serious pianists will be right at home on the SP7’s fully weighted, 88-note hammer-action keybed, while string and pedal resonance modeling and half-damper support complete the illusion of playing a world-class concert grand. Add in a powerful multi-effects engine and a bevy of physical controllers, and you have a formidable master keyboard for stage and studio. And its sleek 27.5-pound chassis is easy to transport. Light on weight and on your budget — but heavy on features and performance — the Kurzweil SP7 is value packed and ready to rock.

World-class pianos onboard
A professional stage piano is nothing without world-class pianos and here the Kurzweil SP7 does not disappoint. Boasting the same German 9-foot grand piano samples found in Kurzweil’s flagship K2700 workstation, the instrument’s A.T.S.T. sound engine delivers striking improvements in realism with its support for higher-resolution audio, smooth velocity transitions, and its 2-times oversampling filter. These impeccable concert grands are breathtakingly nuanced and realistic to play, thanks to state-of-the-art string and pedal resonance modeling, envelope/velocity controlled key-off samples, and half-damper pedal support (pedal available separately). These pianos reside in a massive patch arsenal along with every other sound you could ever need, from authentic vintage EPs to cutting-edge synths to gloriously lifelike acoustic instruments.
Packed with powerful features — and control
When you’re performing onstage, you don’t need a stage piano that fights you back. To that end, Kurzweil fortified the SP7 with a powerful feature set that not only loads sounds instantly, it lets you navigate fast. The onboard FX Engine delivers a full arsenal of editable effects, from reverbs, delays, and dynamics to rotary speaker simulation for your organ patches. Eight arpeggiators enable you to whip up compelling rhythmic patterns quickly. And to control it all, you get a generous command center loaded with fully programmable physical controllers. If you’re ready for a truly masterful stage piano to control your entire keyboard rig, step up to the Kurzweil SP7 from Sweetwater.
