ROLAND FR4XBK DIGITAALNE V-AKORDION MUST NUPPUDEGA

There’s plenty to love about the traditional accordion, from its expression to its portability.

Control other electronic musical instruments via the MIDI connector, or record your playing to a connected USB stick and share your music with the world.

Jam with Your Favorite Songs, or Record Your Own

The USB memory port is your pathway to some of the Roland FR-4xb’s most useful features. By inserting a USB stick preloaded with your favorite songs or your band’s latest material, you can jam along with the music as it plays back and perfect your parts at your convenience. If you want to get creative, the FR-4xb also features a handy onboard recorder; simply record a new part, save it to a USB stick, and then transfer your creation to a computer and share it with the world. USB export also allows you to safely archive your customized sound settings.

Flexible Outputs for a Variety of Music-Making Scenarios

Practice. Rehearsal. Studio. Stage. The Roland FR-4xb has the flexibility to support you wherever you’re making music. The headphones jack lets you practice at home without disturbing the neighbors, and when you’re on the go, a powerful onboard audio system with two speakers and a tweeter supplies big, full-range sound. Ambitious music makers can even connect with external MIDI devices like the Roland BK-7m Backing Module for controllable accompaniment. Gigging accordion players will appreciate that the FR-4xb is fully stage-ready, providing a direct connection to a venue’s PA system via the Line Out and sparing the headaches of trying to mic up a traditional accordion.
