Dallapè Sound Library Plus All FR-8x Sounds and Features
The limited edition FR-8x Dallapè model features the celebrated
Dallapè Sound Library—available as an optional expansion collection for
other V-Accordions—built right into the instrument. Thanks to Roland's
refined sampling technologies, players can enjoy historical Dallapè
models such as the 1871, Liturgica, and many others, with quick
one-touch access via dedicated sets. The Roland FR-8x Dallapè also includes the
complete sound selection and powerful feature set of the standard
FR-8x, which provides a full compliment of authentic accordion sounds
from around the world, over 180 orchestra and percussion sounds, and
much more.
Play in Luxury
Inspired by the classic designs of historic Dallapè accordions, the
FR-8x Dallapè offers a gorgeous, sophisticated look with luxurious
accessories. It features a distinguished gloss black finish, along with a
special metal grille bearing the original Dallapè logo. The
high-quality bellows is beautifully decorated for a striking appearance
on stage, while the included shoulder, bass, and back straps are
constructed with leather and Alcantara for a touch of elegance. A
handsome plaque denotes the exclusive number of each FR-8x Dallapè among
the limited production of 500 instruments.
True Acoustic Response with Dynamic Bellows Behavior
Newly developed for the FR-8x series, Dynamics Bellows Behavior
technology represents a real breakthrough for digital accordionists. In
an acoustic accordion, sounds are produced by reeds that vibrate with
airflow generated by the movement of the bellows; the resistance of the
bellows constantly varies, depending on how many reeds are selected and
how many notes are played at once. Dynamic Bellows Behavior in the FR-8x
series automatically adjusts the air transfer in the bellows in real
time based on the selected register and the number of notes played,
accurately replicating the familiar and comfortable bellows feel of an
acoustic accordion. Dynamic Bellows Behavior can be easily disabled for
players that prefer the bellows feel of previous V-Accordions.
Friendly Interface with Color Display and Intuitive Panel Layout
The FR-8x Dallapè features a large, recessed color display that makes
it easy to see and edit various parameters, while the intuitive panel
layout provides fast operation via many dedicated buttons and knobs.
Three programmable chin switches let you control a variety of functions
such as changing registers, selecting user programs, and more, all
without lifting your hands off the keyboards. Additionally, 1400 user
program memories provide ample storage for custom settings, with quick
fingertip recall in every performing situation.
All-in-One Operation and Onboard Battery Charging
The FR-8x Dallapè is a self-contained instrument, complete with a
rechargeable onboard battery and built-in stereo amplification system.
Battery charging is accomplished simply by connecting the included AC
adapter directly to the FR-8x Dallapè, and you can play without
interruption during the charging process. All device connections are
located right on the instrument, including MIDI, USB, and audio jacks
for interfacing with an external amplification or recording system.
Zones, Layers, and Drums
With the FR-8x series, more layering and zone setup options are
possible in the right-hand keyboard modes than ever before. Whole, Zone,
High, and Low modes are provided, giving you the ability to play up to
four different tones at once. Left-hand keyboard modes now include
layering options as well. The programmable Drum function takes accordion
performance to a fun new dimension, letting you play percussion sounds
manually with the Bass & Chord buttons.
Powerful Multi-Effects and Onboard Looper
Explore all-new sonic textures with the FR-8x Dallapè's four
independent multi-effects engines (MFX), which provide dedicated
processing for the Accordion, Orchestra 1, Orchestra 2, and Orchestra
Chord sections. Each engine has 84 different effects types, offering a
wide range of enhancement from subtle to dramatic. With the onboard
looper, you can instantly record and overdub accordion performances
using the FR-8x Dallapè's enormous selection of sounds, creating
impressive on-the-spot backing accompaniment for improvisation.
