Acoustic Piano

Tap into four strikingly expressive instruments, including two grand pianos, an upright, and a new felt piano with a unique velvety sound. Backed by our famous V-Piano technology, every note reveals authentic acoustic detail and rich tonal depth, realized through an exquisitely modeled system of virtual string behaviors, soundboard materials, and hammer construction. Adjust the brightness, sound width, and key touch as you play. And go deeper with Piano Designer tools to unlock temperament, sympathetic resonance, and other detailed parameters.

Electric Piano

Bring the sound of classic electric pianos to your performances, including beautifully rich tine EPs, punchy reed models, Roland digital icons from the 1980s, and the soulful bite of a retro clavinet. This newly developed engine offers a wide range of sound options, complete with flexible tone-shaping and articulation controls. The powerful Sound Lift knob enhances softer articulations without compression, preserving subtle details while ensuring clarity in dense band mixes. Along with the dedicated tremolo, amp simulator, and curated MFX, you can easily craft vibrant EP sounds for any genre or mood.

Organ

Electrify audiences with a dynamic three-layer console organ powered by Roland’s Virtual Tone Wheel technology. Our acclaimed system replicates the nuanced behaviors of actual tone wheel mechanisms, offering adjustable key click and leakage noise for a truly authentic experience. Two 60s transistor combo models and a pipe organ are also on hand for additional versatility. Harmonic bars and percussion controls provide instant sound shaping, complemented by overdrive, vibrato/chorus, and a rotary speaker effect with mic positioning and fast-access buttons for speed and brake control.

Synthesizer

Explore over 400 onboard ZEN-Core tones to cover solo parts and create layered textures with the other engines. Two simultaneous sounds are available with hands-on controls for shaping attack, release, filter, and more. V-STAGE also supports ZEN-Core patch and sound options on Roland Cloud, providing an ever-expanding palette of inspiration. Included with V-STAGE are free downloads of Model Expansions titles based on the JUPITER-8, JUNO-106, and other vintage Roland analog synths.

Total Effects

V-STAGE is loaded with effects that bring depth, color, and character to individual engines or the whole mix. Enhance sounds with independent delay and reverb. Then dive into a massive MFX selection from the Roland library with everything from mod and delay options to bold distortion tones, filters, and lo-fi effects for deep sound-sculpting flexibility.

Creative command center.

Create in the moment with player-centric controls that let you focus on performing, not programming. Adjust tones on the fly with knobs, buttons, and sliders that offer tailored command for sound engines and effects. And keep everything together with a 4.3-inch color LCD and master controls for your complete setup.

Real-time sound design.

The four V-STAGE sound engines are always available, ready to craft the perfect tones for every song. Controls are intuitively organized for each engine, prioritizing the most important settings for shaping piano tones, dialing in organ textures, or layering synth sounds. You can also turn each engine on/off with a press, set and reset split points, and quickly balance levels with dynamic LED-equipped knobs that show status at a glance.

Expand your range.

Four rear-panel jacks support numerous floor-control options, including basic hold/damper pedals plus footswitches and expression pedals for customized control of various parameters. Two dedicated USB inputs are also available to connect external MIDI controllers such as the Roland A-49 or A-PRO series.

Streamlined device connection.

With the USB-C audio/MIDI interface, its simple to integrate computers and mobile devices with the V-STAGE experience. Perform with music apps, backing tracks, and more. Or stream gig audio to your fan base via your phone. Apple MainStage control is built-in, allowing you to blend virtual instruments with onboard sounds. Class-compliant support provides an easy plug-and-play connection for basic stereo audio applications, while a dedicated driver offers multi-channel audio transfer for computer-based DAWs.

One-touch configuration.

Organize and recall sounds with 512 Scenes, each containing tone, effects, and parameter settings you can tailor for every song selection. Use 128 Scene Chains to organize up to 128 Scenes for rapid-fire selection through different stage setlists. Eight special EX Scenes automatically save changes as you go, perfect for building setups in rehearsals and addressing last-minute additions to the nights setlist.

Seamless transitions.

The speedy V-STAGE DSP eliminates the sound roadblocks that plague less powerful keyboards. Scene Remain provides smooth and natural transitions with delay/reverb carryover and no chopped-off notes. And with abundant polyphony, you can take on the most complex musical pieces without worry.

Master your sound.

Using the Master section on the V-STAGE panel, you can easily shape your overall sound to suit the environment youre playing in. Balance the entire output with a three-band EQ and variable midrange control. Then add tightness and punch with two sophisticated compressor options that let you tweak multiple internal parameters with a simple one-knob control.

Superior playability.

V-STAGE models feature supremely playable keyboards that connect you with each instruments signature tones. Cutting-edge Roland sensing technology dynamically adapts to the current sound engine selections, ensuring you always have the most expressive response under your fingers.

Dive into an authentic piano experience with V-STAGE 88 and its 88-note weighted keyboard with genuine hammer action, escapement, and Ivory Feel. Or choose V-STAGE 76 and a newly developed 76-note semi-weighted keyboard, which features refined velocity detection for enhanced response and a waterfall feel for classic organ moves like glissandos and rakes.

Pro audio connectivity.

Get connected with the house PA and stage monitors via balanced XLR and 1/4-inch stereo main outputs and two balanced sub outputs that can be customized for discrete sound feeds. And use the stereo line input to mix in an external instrument such as a drum machine or keyboard. Theres even a convenient XLR mic input for singing, complete with a dedicated panel knob for level adjustment.
