M-Audio has been delivering critically acclaimed music technology innovation for over twenty years. Professional musicians and recording studios rely on M-Audio products such as industry-leading USB MIDI controller keyboards and Studiophile® speaker systems. M-Audio digital pianos build on this legacy of quality and dependability, fusing years of expertise in digital keyboard technology and high-fidelity audio with world-class sounds. M-Audio digital pianos are sophisticated, expressive instruments equally suited for today’s homes and houses of worship.

Looking for the perfect instrument to support your child’s music education—or perhaps to further your own childhood lessons? M-Audio’s DCP-300 digital piano offers affordability, acoustic realism and helpful practice features that make it an ideal choice. You and your family will experience the joy of playing the piano—either through the high-fidelity internal sound system or privately with headphones. In fact, there are two headphone jacks to accommodate both teacher and student—great for duets.

With the built-in 2-track note recorder you can record just the Treble or Bass clef part, allowing you to practice hands separately on difficult passages. Take your practice session even further by recording entire performances for evaluation. And a single USB connection provides access to self-paced music education software like Sibelius Groovy.

Audio inputs are built in, making it easy to hook up an iPod or CD player and play along to pre-recorded classical and jazz fake book accompaniment tracks. Learning new repertoire has never been easier.

Step into the world of orchestration and professional notation. Work out song ideas, then connect to a computer via USB and use the included Sibelius First software to notate and print out the score. Just press record—your computer instantly transcribes what you play into professional-grade sheet music. You can even orchestrate, arrange and playback your masterpieces using Sibelius First’s General MIDI software synth. Featuring 128 high-quality presets, this GM instrument gives you instant access to a palette of inspiring sounds. Everything from jazz drums, sax sections, orchestral strings, solo woodwinds, triumphant brass and more are at your fingertips, ready to put on the page.

The M-Audio DCP-300 digital piano features premium internal sounds meticulously sampled from some of the world’s finest instruments, including the classic Steinway* Model D concert grand piano. The remarkable DCP-300 boasts a finely crafted 88-note keyboard with graded hammer action to reproduce the feel of an acoustic piano—from a lighter touch on the high notes, down to a more weighty response on the lows. And unlike many digital pianos, the DCP-300 gives you all three of the pedals found on grand pianos—including sostenuto. The powerful combination of authentic sound, realistic touch and grand piano pedaling provides a musical, inspiring playing experience for beginners and serious performers alike.

All M-Audio digital pianos feature built-in USB MIDI interfaces to connect to most PC and Mac computers. A single USB cable lets you plug into a wide range of music software for education, notation, MIDI recording and more. The DCP-300’s USB interface is class compliant, meaning OS X and Windows already support it without requiring you to download and install additional driver software. A computer running Mac OS X or Windows XP/Vista will automatically recognize the DCP-300—no hassles or tricky configuration. The DCP-300 even includes Sibelius® First software—the easy-to-use application from the industry leader in music notation.

If you’re the musical director for a house of worship, school chorus or similar group, the DCP-300 digital piano gives you a new reason to rejoice. The dual 20-watt stereo speaker system is powerful enough to fill a rehearsal room with rich, full-bodied sound. For larger performance halls, the built-in audio outputs can be connected to a keyboard amp or live sound PA. And because the DCP-300 is a digital instrument, it never needs tuning. The included Sibelius First software lets you arrange and print your own SATB and lead-sheet arrangements for your group to rehearse and perform. Scores and parts can even be rendered as audio, so you can provide singers with rehearsal MP3s.

The piano has a longstanding tradition of bringing music enjoyment and education into the home. Now with today’s digital technology, it’s never been easier to make this beautiful instrument your own. Digital pianos are made with modern manufacturing techniques so they don’t cost a fortune. They fit the sound of a concert grand and other instruments into a spare corner of the room. They enable family members to entertain guests or play privately using headphones. And digital pianos never need costly tuning or repair—or a skilled piano mover when you relocate. The M-Audio DCP-300 brings all the advantages of today’s technology to the instrument you know and love.
