Roland FR-7 V-Accordion Digital Accordion: Mixing 22 Orchestral Sounds and Bass

Roland proudly announced the arrival of two breakthrough instruments: the FR-5 and FR-7 V-Accordions. Based on Roland’s proprietary Physical Behavior Modeling (PBM) technology, these lightweight, reedless digital accordions put dozens of ultra-realistic instruments at the player’s fingertips. They are a dream come true for accordionists who have long wished for a more versatile instrument. Every modeled accordion onboard the FR-7/5 plays and reacts exactly like the real thing, down to the smallest nuance. But the V-Accordion doesn’t stop there. Select a grand piano, an acoustic guitar, a brass or woodwind instrument, and squeeze new life into these classic sounds. Audiences won’t believe what they’re hearing!

PBM (Physical Behavior Modeling) enables true sound reproduction and dynamic expression.

Realistic tone and expressive simulations of a wide range of traditional accordions.

22 onboard Orchestral sounds and 7 Orchestral Bass sounds that can be mixed together with traditional accordion sounds.

Portable, lightweight and expandable via MIDI.

Expand creative possibilities and explore new performance options not achievable using traditional instruments.

The FR-7 is a complete, all-in-one model with powered speakers.

The V-Accordions don’t depend on moving parts to generate sound, which makes them virtually maintenance free. This results in an instrument that’s always in tune across a wide range of octaves. Both accordions are lightweight and portable, with an onboard digital amplifier and rechargeable Ni-Mh battery pack (optional on the FR-5). For live performance, the FR-7 incorporates a pair of powerful lightweight neodymium woofers and tweeters for a consistent, full range low-end to high-end output. In addition, each V-Accordion can be plugged directly into a sound system or a recording device via a 1/4-inch cable. A headphone jack is offered for private practice.

The V-Accordions are based on newly developed Physical Behavior Modeling algorithms that faithfully reproduce the characteristics and nuances of authentic accordions. They can simulate up to 30 different accordion sound sets, each including 14 Treble Registers, seven Bass & Chord Registers, and seven Free Bass Registers. The user-friendly interface enables switching instantly between accordion sounds.

In additional to the wide variety of accordion voices, the FR-5/7 houses 22 orchestral and pop sounds, all with full-bellows articulation. Orchestral sounds include Trumpet, Trombone, Sax, Clarinet, Oboe, Harmonica, Violin, Flute, Jazz organ, Percussive Organ, Human Voice, Mandolin, Acoustic Guitar, and Acoustic Piano, to name a few. Seven high quality Bass Orchestral sounds can be played separately by the left hand, including Acoustic Bass, Bowed Bass, Fingered Bass, Picked Bass, Fretless Bass, Baritone Tuba, and Baritone Tuba + E. Bass. Onboard MIDI functionality allows integration of sound modules, arranger keyboards, or external sequencers.
