Lightning-Fast Recorder!
The P-6 Creative Sampler combines Roland’s renowned sampling technology with advanced granular sound design and a powerful sequencer in a compact pocket-sized device. Equipped with a built-in microphone, intuitive controls, USB-C, and a variety of practical effects, the P-6 impresses with extraordinary sampling and performance capabilities—no matter where you are.
Sound Magic for Everyone
The P-6 suits all music producers—beginners and pros alike. With its intuitive, high-quality controls and pads, you can jump right in, jam, and tweak your sounds. For those wanting to dive deeper, numerous advanced performance and sound editing features await.
Fast Sampling
Whether you use the built-in microphone, analog inputs, or a USB-C smartphone, the P-6 is always ready to sample. Longer samples can be quickly and easily sliced into preset sections and accessed via the integrated keyboard. Plus, step-sampling lets you build your own sound collections. Want grittier sounds? No problem with our Lo-Fi effects. Need more layers? Resampling adds depth and complexity to your sounds.
Go Granular
With the P-6’s granular sampling tools, you enter a universe of microscopic sound design choices. Use the diverse parameters to transform tiny moments into vast soundscapes. Change sample pitch, adjust grain shape, play with locator position and speed, spread values, and more. From clean and pure to total fragmentation—it often takes just one knob turn or button press to explore new sonic dimensions.
Sequencing Reimagined
Bring your sequences to life with extensive features that push the boundaries of music programming. Jam on 64-step patterns based on dynamic sequencing elements like motion recording, probability, micro-timing, off-grid sequencing, and sub-steps. You can also manipulate pattern playback in real time with the step-loop function to create stutter effects and creative improvisations.
Intuitive Effects
Enhance your performances and productions with a selection of practical MFX effects. Transform and manipulate your sounds with legendary effects and new classics, including all-time favorites like Vinyl Simulator, DJFX Looper, Stopper, Lo-fi, Scatter, Phaser, and Resonator. Besides BUS FX routing and targeted use of individual MFX effects, you can even assign custom delay and reverb settings to each sample.
P-6 SampleTool
The P-6 SampleTool software for macOS and Windows is a handy partner for editing and transferring samples between your computer and the P-6. Avoid clicks with automatic zero-crossing snapping, trim unwanted sections, normalize audio levels to a consistent volume, and reduce sample resolution via downsampling. Then simply drag & drop your finished samples onto the P-6 hardware for immediate use.
Connection to the Outside World
The P-6 is incredibly fun as a standalone instrument. When combined with other devices, it becomes even more powerful. By linking the P-6 with the S-1 Tweak Synth, the T-8 Beat Machine, another AIRA Compact model, or external instruments, you can create your own portable creative ecosystem. Additionally, you can stream the entire device chain from the P-6 via USB-C to a smartphone, tablet, or laptop to use sounds for content production or integrate audio signals into your preferred music software. Setup is plug-and-play with no extra driver installation required.
Ready Anytime, Anywhere
The P-6 is highly portable and always ready to record. Its built-in lithium-ion battery offers up to three hours of runtime per charge. Plus, the robust Roland housing ensures you’ll enjoy your P-6 for years to come.

(I'm not completely satisfied with the shipping partner of Kirstein, but of course that has no influence on the product. DPD does not deliver on Saturday. This has often led to my order being left in some distribution center over the weekend. DHL is in a better position. )
