Roland FR-4XB BK V-Accordion accordion with buttons, black

Roland’s top-quality V-Accordions offer the same playing comfort as acoustic models, with a number of advantages. This black FR-4xb features the same sound engine as the FR-8XB flagship model. It has a huge range of sounds, highly-responsive bellows, built-in speakers and a compact, lightweight design. In addition to 100 accordion sounds, the FR-4xb has a huge number of orchestral sounds, organs and even drums on board. This digital accordion is ideal whether you’re playing at home, in the studio or on the stage. It has 92 buttons for the right hand and 120 buttons for the left hand.

V-Accordion: practical and flexible
It’s possible to record the music you play directly on to a USB stick via the USB port. There’s also a MIDI port so that you can connect to other electronic instruments or something like the BK-7m backing module. The FR-4xb even has it’s own built-in sound system featuring two speakers and a tweeter. When you need a bigger sound, connect it up to a PA or mixer using the line out. When you want to practise at home in silence, simply plug your headphones into the headphone socket.

Sounds and effects
Whereas an acoustic accordion is only capable of producing one sound, the FR-4xb opens up a whole new world of possibilities. As well as 100 accordion sounds, you have 162 orchestral sounds, 32 organ sounds, and 3 drum sounds at your disposal. On top of that, you get reverb, chorus and rotary effects, and switching between different music styles is quick and easy too. The USB port makes it easy to playback and record music. A power adapter or AA batteries can be used to power the Roland FR-4xb BK.
