[Musikmesse] Roland FR-3x V-Accordion
Roland announced the new compact FR-3x V-Accordion with new bellows pressure-sensing circuitry, USB Flash Memory connector for external storage.
The FR-3X is described as "a fusion of traditional accordion performance and modern digital functionality."
With the FR-3x, accordionists can switch between an Italian jazz accordion, to German folk, French musette, Russian bajan, or a variety of other accordion sounds without changing technique. Orchestral sounds are onboard the FR-3x as well as a Virtual Tone Wheel generator for preset organ sounds with bellows pressure control. Percussion sounds can even be played with the left hand using the bass and chord sections.
The FR-3x and accompanying button version (FR-3xb) will also be available in a special edition white version, with a decorated bellows and genuine leather Alcantara straps.
