FR-7x TOP CLASS
elegance and total exibility
Fast response and high sensitivity
Thanks to Roland’s newly-developed sound generator, which is optimized for Accordion performance, the
FR-7x will satisfy the most demanding accordion players. You will be impressed by the fast response of the
keys/buttons, the higher sensitivity and precision, and the detection of bellows opening/closing with new
bellows pressure-sensor circuitry. Thanks to this new technology, accordionists can feel perfectly at ease
when playing their music, especially once they have experienced the enhanced response of this instrument.
Super Realistic Accordion Simulations
The FR-7x has 41 keys (with velocity and aftertouch), 120 velocity-sensitive bass buttons (6 bass & chord
modes and 5 free bass modes to suit your playing style) and can simulate up to 80 different accordion
instruments each including 14 treble registers, 26 orchestral sounds, 7 bass & chord registers, 7 free bass
registers, 7 orchestral free bass, 7 orchestral bass registers, and 7 orchestral chord registers.
Thanks to the Bass to Treble mode the FR-7x can be used like a “Bassoon Accordion”. In this mode
the bass part is played with the right hand (the bass and chord buttons are inactive). Moreover the
programmable Drum function allows you to play percussion sounds with the Bass & Chord buttons.
There’s even a unique Bellows Resistance Regulator that can be set to match the player’s strength or
preference. Increasing or decreasing the bellow’s inertia is simply a matter of selecting one of four positions
on a conveniently located wheel.
…and organ simulations
Thanks to the Virtual Tone Wheel sound engine, the FR-7x allows you to play amazing organ sounds, by
using Treble (upper), Chord/Free Bass (lower) and Bass (pedal) sections.
Virtual Tone Wheel controls will allow you to personalize your organ sounds to satisfy every musical genre.
USB host port onboard
Easy data storage, handy customization of V-Accordion sound-sets to satisfy special accordion/orchestra
demands from different countries, and easy to upload software versions, thanks to the USB Flash Memory.
What’s more, you can manage MP3 and Wav les and even record your performances in Wav format on
the optional USB Flash Memory. Playback and record functions are perfect for educational use, and enhance
live performance too.
Battery-powered instrument with built-in speakers
Though the FR-7x is a fully digital instrument, it’s also an all-in-one instrument, i.e. you do not need
to connect it to any amplier to produce sounds. Its onboard amplication system is powerful enough
for small venues, restaurants, pubs… Furthermore, the FR-7x comes with a rechargeable battery, so
that you do not need to connect it to a power outlet. It goes far beyond the control possibilities of a
MIDI keyboard with optional performance functions.
