Roland VR-09B V COMBO Live Performance Keyboard

61-Note Keyboard for Traveling with All the Voices You Need
Lightweight, affordable and packed with high-end Roland sound, the V-Combo VR-09-B is the ideal all-in-one solution for keyboard players. The organ-specific, acoustic/electric piano, and synth engine are arranged in three sections on the front panel, giving your fingertips access to the essential notes you need to play any style of music. Powerful real-time controls give you maximum expression on stage, with a hands-on slider for tone shaping and a large array of knobs and buttons for tweaking seven simultaneous effects and a variety of other parameters. With versatile sound, smart user interface and highly mobile design, the V-Combo VR-09-B is a dream come true for performing musicians.

Equipment Ready and Easy to Carry

Vintage equipment is great, but not very practical for keyboard players who need to travel. Combo organs, rotary speakers, and electric pianos can add up to several hundred pounds, and are very large and difficult for one person to lift. The VR-09-B includes all of these sounds and more in an instrument that weighs just 12.5 lb 3 oz./5.5 kg, so it’s easy to transport and easier to install. And with battery-operated support, the VR-09-B provides the ultimate in mobile convenience for street performances, weddings and on-going events.

Hassle-free operation for expressive freedom on stage

The VR-09-B was designed from the ground up with the needs of live players in mind. The smart and well-organized front panel layout features a clear LCD screen and dedicated organ, piano and synth sections. It gives you direct access to all the important sounds you need, plus lots of real-time controls for expressive tone manipulation. Seven simultaneous effects include rotary, delay, reverb, tone, overdrive, compressor, and MFX, and a dedicated button tweaks several parameters to deliver powerful sound with minimal effort. It’s also easy to quickly manage splits and layers, and to save all your settings in a user memory location for quick recall when on stage.
