Roland Ships VP-770 Vocal & Ensemble Keyboard

May 19, 2009

Roland Corporation U.S. is pleased to announce general availability of the VP-770 Vocal & Ensemble Keyboard (http://www.rolandus.com/products/productdetails.aspx?ObjectId=988) featuring newly developed vocal designer effects and high-quality ensemble sounds powered by Roland's exclusive SuperNATURAL™ technology.

With a solid wood construction and metal chassis, the VP-770 features an improved interface, plus expressive onboard sounds applicable across a vast array of musical genres. A high-quality headset microphone comes standard and provides the best signal path possible in combination with the VP-770's pristine onboard microphone preamp.

Performers will especially love how inviting and inspiring the VP-770 is to use onstage. It's ideal for musicians who perform alone or in small groups, and for those who need an interactive, real-time backing chorus. Film and TV music composers who are challenged with time and budget can use the VP-770 to generate high-impact choral, string, and brass arrangements on the spot. Churches in need of a choir (or choir enhancer) will love the VP-770 as well.

The VP-770 is also equipped with high-resolution vocoder modeling, which can be used to generate signature vocal effects for the dance music, pop, R&B, and hip-hop genres without the hassle and expense of a separate vocoder or processor.

The VP-770 is now shipping with an MSRP of $2,199.00.
