The Roland FR-4XB V Accordion is a modern model that combines traditional sounds and response with modern features. It offers portability and a wide range of expressive capabilities, inviting players to explore their unique performance skills. With its compact design, pressure-sensing bellows, and full-range onboard speakers, the FR-4XB feels just like an acoustic v-accordion.
The FR-4XB features the same powerful sound engine as Roland’s flagship FR-8XB. It offers a wide selection of accordion sounds from around the world and can be played in silence using headphones or connected to a PA system for live performances. The MIDI connector allows players to control other electronic instruments or record their playing to a USB stick for sharing with fans.
Versatility is a key feature of the FR-4XB. It comes with a powerful sound engine that offers 100 preset accordion sets and 162 orchestral sounds. This allows players to customize their sound to their individual style and explore various music genres. The accordion layout includes 120 left-hand buttons and pressure-sensing bellows circuitry, providing familiarity and customization options for players. The lightweight and compact design make it perfect for traveling musicians, and it can be powered by an AC adaptor or AA batteries.
The FR-4XB offers versatile outputs, making it suitable for practice, studio work, or live performances. The headphone jack allows for quiet practice sessions, while the onboard audio system provides powerful sound when playing on the go. The accordion can also be connected to external MIDI devices for controllable accompaniment. It offers a direct connection to a venue’s PA system via the line-out, eliminating the need for miking up a traditional v-accordion.
The FR-4XB also includes features for playing favorite songs or recording original compositions. The USB memory port allows for the use of preloaded USB sticks with songs or recordings, providing creative possibilities on the go. The onboard recorder allows players to capture inspirations and transfer them to a USB for further work. The USB export feature allows for safe archiving of customized sound settings.
The FR-4XB also offers a range of other features, including a character-type LCD screen, expansion slots for additional tone libraries, a dedicated editor software, and various connection options. It is available in black or red and is made in Italy.
