collapse expand iconDescription

The Alesis Prestige Artist 88-key Digital Piano features 88 full-size graded hammer-action keys that recreate the weighted feel of acoustic piano keys. With 30 multi-sampled voices with the ability to split or layer two voices simultaneously, including acoustic and electric pianos, organs, clavs and strings, the Prestige Artist serves up a sonic palette ideal for practice and performance. A custom-designed 50W speaker system generates a rich, full tone that fills the room.

Graded Hammer-Action Keys Provide Authentic Feel

The Prestige Artist's 88 keys use a graded hammer-action mechanism to simulate the heavier feel of bass keys and lighter feel of treble keys found on acoustic pianos. This graduated touch response helps players develop finger sensitivity and proper technique. The keys' ivory feel provides a textured, non-slip surface for comfortable play.

30 High Quality Voices with 256 Note Polyphony

With 30 multi-sampled instrument voices powered by 256 notes of polyphony, the Prestige Artist produces highly realistic piano and ensemble sounds. Its acoustic piano voices capture the complex harmonic interactions of hammers, strings, soundboards and amplifiers in world-class concert grands. Electric piano, organ and string voices provide additional tone options for layering and splitting.

50W Speaker System Delivers Resonant Tone

The Prestige Artist features a custom-designed 50W speaker system with two 25W speakers that generate a full, rich tone. Amplified sound resonates through the instrument's cabinet, creating an immersive playing experience. The speaker system's wide dispersion provides consistent sound quality regardless of the player's position. For private practice, front-facing headphone jacks automatically mute the speakers.

Practice and Play with Lesson, Record, Layer and Split Modes

The Prestige Artist offers modes for interactive practice and performance. Lesson Mode divides the keyboard for student and teacher. Record Mode captures and plays back performances. Layer Mode combines two voices for a thicker sound. Split Mode allocates different voices to the left and right keyboard halves. Reverb effects add ambiance and realism. An arpeggiator automatically plays chords and phrases.

    Device stopped working after warranty ended. There is absolutely no support from Alesis. GC does not offer repairs on Alesis, only replacement. They don't answer phones. A local electronics service company said they fix every brand except Alesis, because Alesis parts are not available.

  • Disappointed with main piano sample ....

    I have been playing piano for over 50 years and electric keyboard for past 15 years, starting with Casio Privia PX-330 and then PX-160. I trade them in because their key actions were too light for my taste. This keyboard has a bit heavier key action which I prefer. At this price point, it has impressive specs with 256 notes of polyphony, 25 watts per channel speakers. fully graded hammer action keys, 2 headphone jacks and a full-size sustain pedal. While it sounded OK initially on the showroom, I am thoroughly unimpressed by the main piano sample, more nd more I play this keyboard. I say spend little extra and go with Yamaha, Roland or Kawai. Their piano samples are noticeably superior.

    I use it for practice and recording with GarageBand/Logic Pro. The keys feel so good, and I like the sustain pedal that comes with the Prestige Artist.

    Re: Alesis Prestige Artist.........If I also want the stand/pedals, why do I have to also buy a bench that I don't want or need?  Unlike Yamaha or Kawai.

    Does the Prestige Artist have audio over USB?  Also, FYI, I notice that your specifications are for the Prestige, and not for the Prestige Artist.  Polyphony and number of sounds are incorrect.

    1, Does this keyboard come with sustain pedal? One section of the page says, "Piano-style sustain pedal, music rest and power adapter included," but it is not listed under the specifications.
2. Does this keyboard come with an owner's manual that shows how to set split modes and various functions?
