The twin piano mode allows for a teacher to sit next to a student and split the piano so that both have access to the same range. This makes learning much more fluid and enjoyable for players. For times when practice may not be convenient due to noise restrictions, the Roland RP501R Digital Piano also has a headphone socket so silent practice is perfectly possible. The 3D ambiance effect also keeps that rich and authentic sound field that using headphones can sometimes diminish.
