A software developer with years of repetitive strain injury from keyboard use describes noticing far less arm pain recently, including while playing piano. They attribute this to having reduced the amount of raw typing they do, particularly symbol-heavy keystrokes, since incorporating LLM tools into their workflow.
Roland has launched the FP-40 digital piano, notable for including built-in Wi-Fi rather than the more common Bluetooth connection found on rival instruments. The piano pairs with a new companion app called Piano Sphere, which delivers real-time feedback, song libraries, and courses, while the piano itself logs practice history and flags when a player is struggling. Roland also equipped the instrument with its Piano Reality Sound Engine and weighted, triple-sensor hammer-action keys aimed at mimicking acoustic piano feel.
