Dexibell Vivo H10 - rouge brillant

The Dexibell VIVO H10 is a freestanding digital piano designed for experienced pianists who want a keyboard with a refined action and detailed sound reproduction, while still enjoying the capabilities of a digital instrument. Its TP-400 W hybrid keyboard, T2L sound engine, and 8-speaker system make it ideal for demanding home use, whether for practicing repertoire or exploring additional sounds.

Key Features

• TP-400 W hybrid keyboard with 88 weighted keys, triple contact, and escapement for working on nuances and rapid repetitions with an action similar in principle to that of an acoustic piano.
• T2L technology combines sampling and modeling to reproduce, in particular, sympathetic resonances, pedal interactions, and various mechanical noises of the piano.
• Advertised unlimited polyphony with 320 oscillators, useful for dense passages, sustained use of the sustain pedal, and layered sounds.
• 125 built-in sounds, including 3 PLATINUM sounds, with 3.2 GB of user-replaceable sound memory to expand the sound bank.
• A bi-amplified system with a maximum output of 112 W and 8 speakers, including 6 near-field speakers positioned to enhance the sound directly at the keyboard.
• Two headphone outputs, Split, Layer, and 4-hand modes, as well as a USB connection supporting MIDI and digital audio to integrate the piano into various working environments.

Is the keyboard suitable for an experienced pianist?

The VIVO H10 uses a TP-400 W hybrid keyboard combining wood and other materials, with 88 weighted keys featuring hammer-action mechanics, triple contact, and escapement. The triple sensor is particularly useful when playing rapid repetitions, as detection does not always depend on the key returning fully to its resting position.

Sensitivity can be adjusted across 7 curves, with a fixed mode also available. This allows you to tailor the keyboard’s dynamic response to your playing style or the repertoire you’re working on without mechanically altering the touch.

How does the VIVO H10 reproduce the behavior of an acoustic piano?

The T2L engine combines sampling and modeling. It takes into account several phenomena related to the operation of an acoustic piano, including sympathetic resonances, resonances related to the sustain pedal, and various mechanical elements that contribute to the sound.

Sounds are processed in 24-bit linear at 48 kHz, with internal 32-bit floating-point processing. The advertised unlimited polyphony with 320 oscillators prevents sustained notes from being cut off when playing becomes dense, particularly when using the sustain pedal or when layering multiple sounds.

Is the built-in speaker system sufficient for playing without external amplification?

The cabinet features 8 speakers powered by a bi-amplified system capable of up to 112 W. Two woofers handle part of the bass range, while six small near-field speakers project sound directly into the pianist’s immediate vicinity.

For daily practice at home, the instrument therefore has its own sound system. Separate audio outputs are available if you wish to connect it to external amplification or recording equipment.

Can you play with headphones or practice with a partner?

Two headphone jacks are available: one 6.35 mm jack and one 3.5 mm mini-jack. This allows two people to each connect their own headphones without needing an external splitter.

The 4-hand mode also allows you to split the keyboard for teacher-student sessions or duets. The VIVO H10 also offers Split and Layer modes to split or layer multiple sounds across the keyboard.

Can the sounds on the VIVO H10 be customized?

The piano includes 125 sounds, including 3 PLATINUM sounds. Its 3.2 GB waveform memory can be customized by the user with Dexibell sounds and SoundFont SF2-compatible files.

New content can be loaded via a USB drive. This architecture will be of particular interest to musicians who don’t want to be limited to the factory-installed sound selection.

Can it be used for recording or with a computer?

The USB TO HOST port transmits both MIDI and digital audio for input and output. The VIVO H10 can therefore communicate with compatible software without requiring a separate MIDI connection for performance data.

It also features an audio recorder capable of writing WAV files to a USB drive, as well as a player for WAV, AIFF, and MP3 files. A microphone input with level control and dedicated processing is also built in.

What installation requirements should be considered?

The VIVO H10 is a cabinet piano measuring 142 cm wide, 38.5 cm deep, and 78.7 cm tall, weighing 55 kg. It is therefore better suited for a permanent installation in a workspace or living area than for frequent transport.

Its size is significantly different from that of a portable stage piano. If mobility between rehearsals, concerts, or studios is a priority, the weight and the cabinet design are constraints that must be taken into account.
