The V-Accordion Revolution Continues - with the FR-4x!
Accordions have always been valued for their portability and expressive power. The Roland V-Accordions prove this too, as demonstrated by the new FR-4x.
Thanks to its lightweight, compact design, pressure-sensitive bellows response, and full-range speaker system, the FR-4x will quickly feel familiar even to fans of acoustic accordions. Equipped with the sound engine of Roland’s flagship FR-8x, it offers a wealth of accordion sounds that can also be played through headphones or a PA system. External instruments can be controlled via the MIDI output, and playing can be comfortably recorded using a USB stick. Despite its traditional look and familiar playing feel, the Roland FR-4x is the perfect accordion for contemporary music-making.
Editable Tones
An acoustic accordion has only one specific tonal character. Thanks to the sound engine of the flagship FR-8x, the FR-4x features the sounds of a full orchestra, offering the right tone color for every music style. You might just use the 100 accordion sets, which let you switch instantly between, for example, a French musette and a Russian bayan instrument, or you can explore the 162 orchestral tones like organ, strings, and bass guitar. Shape the sound with chorus, reverb, and rotary effects. And if you want, you can also play drum sounds on the FR-4x alongside melody instruments. Countless sound parameters can be quickly and effectively modified, or you can download complete sound expansions from the Roland website. The FR-4x thus opens up immense creative possibilities.
The Tradition-Minded Digital Accordion
If you already own an acoustic accordion, you naturally expect nuanced response and high wearing comfort. In this respect, the Roland FR-4x is no different from an acoustic accordion. Its 37 treble and 120 bass buttons fit perfectly in the hand, and the pressure-sensitive bellows have the usual influence on dynamics and articulation. The built-in technology makes it an extremely versatile, portable instrument that can be powered either by an adapter or AA batteries.
Plenty of Connection Options
At home, rehearsing, in the studio, or on stage – the Roland FR-4x is simply suitable for all applications. The headphone jack allows playing without disturbing others. The integrated speaker system delivers powerful full-range sound that is sufficient in many situations. Via the MIDI output, for example, a Roland BK-7m arranger module can be controlled, so you have a matching accompaniment right away. For more demanding performances, the FR-4x offers line outputs that can be connected directly to a PA system. This eliminates complicated microphone setups.
Stage Ready for Your Own Recordings and Playbacks
The USB MEMORY port gives access to one of the most brilliant features of the Roland FR-4x. Connect a USB stick with your favorite songs, start playback, and play live along. Additionally, the FR-4x offers a recorder to capture your own pieces, which can be conveniently transferred to a computer via USB stick. Of course, your own settings can also be saved on the USB stick.
