ROLAND
SI-24 STUDIO PACKAGE
Studio Package Pro
The Studio Package Pro is a complete hardware and software
bundle that gives musicians everything they need to profes-
sionally record music on a computer. The Studio Package Pro
consists of three elements:
The SI-24 Studio Interface, RPC-1 PCI Interface Card, and
Emagic’s Logic RPC Pro software for Mac or PC. This afford-
able combination provides 24-bit/96kHz recording and profes-
sional MIDI sequencing with a motorized control surface—a
powerful combination at an incredible value.
The SI-24 Studio Interface is a mixing surface equipped with
eight XLR/TRS inputs, a Guitar Hi-Z input, plus digital I/O
in S/PDIF and R-BUS formats—all with 24-bit/96kHz sound
quality. The SI-24’s 13 motorized faders, 12 rotary knobs and
5.1 surround joystick can all be used to control Logic’s mixing
functions and plug-ins. There’s even a Screen Set function for
changing Logic’s screen sets remotely.
Audio is passed from the SI-24 to and from the computer via the included RPC-1 R-BUS Interface Card, a PCI audio card
with drivers for Windows, Macintosh and ASIO 2. The SI-24 connects to the RPC-1 via a single R-BUS cable, which can
handle eight channels of bi-directional 24-bit/96kHz digital audio, along with MIDI information received from the SI-24’s
MIDI In and Out ports—making the SI-24 a useful MIDI interface as well.
All recording is handled in the computer via the bundled Logic RPC Pro software.This special version of Emagic’s award-
winning music production software for Mac or PC provides eight channels of simultaneous 24-bit/96kHz recording, 24
tracks of playback, 5.1 surround mixing, level and pan automation, a host of killer plug-ins and more.And since the SI-24 is
designed to control many of Logic’s mixing functions—including track level and panning, EQ, plug-in parameters and soft
synths—users gain hands-on control of their software for an unbeatable combination. The SI-24 also includes controller
templates for popular software such as Pro Tools and Cubase, plus a “Learn” mode for setting up user presets more easily.

Professional Sound Quality
As with any digital recording system, sound
quality is a primary concern. That’s why
Roland gave the SI-24 Studio Interface the
best 24-bit/96kHz converters.You can use up
to eight analog inputs simultaneously, choos-
ing from either 1/4˝ phone jacks or XLR con-
nectors. Six analog outputs are also provided,
plus S/PDIF digital I/O. Once audio is routed
into the SI-24, it is transferred digitally in and
out of the computer via R-BUS.And since
Logic supports 24-bit/96kHz recording, the
sound quality is never compromised.You can
even dither back down to 16-bits when you’re
ready to burn a CD.
Fully Automated Mixing
With 13 motorized faders, mixing on the SI-
24 couldn’t be easier.Simply switch fader
banks to access more channels and watch as
the faders instantly snap to the proper posi-
tions! Naturally, the SI-24’s faders can also be
used to control Logic’s “virtual”faders for
more natural mixing. And when you really
want to create complex mixes, tap into Logic’s
wealth of automation functions. Tools like
HyperDraw let you draw in fader moves and
panning, while the new track-based automa-
tion makes it even easier to automate any
mixing or plug-in parameter without leaving
the Arrange window.
Transport/Function Buttons
Besides functioning as a mixer, the SI-24
works as a remote control for Logic.
Dedicated transport buttons and a large Jog
wheel make moving around your song easy,
while ten numeric keys perform multiple
functions: Push the Screen Set button and
they automatically select Logic’s screen sets,
making it easy to switch between the Arrange
window, Mixer window or other screens.
Press the Short Cut button and the numeric
keys automatically perform functions like
Save, Undo, Copy, Paste and Cycle. They can
even call up automation views for volume and
pan.And that’s just the beginning!
