Выпуск новой модели баянов и аккордеонов Roland FR-1X, Выставка NAMM 2012 – США

Roland FR-X1 release at NAMM
Выставка NAMM Show 2012 пройдет с 19 по 22 января в Анахайме, Лос-Анджелесе . В выставке примут участие более 1500 экспонентов, в том числе Roland Corporation.

Компания Roland объявила, что представит на NAMM 2012 новую модель цифровых баянов и аккордеонов Roland FR-1X, которая является самой маленькой моделью в серии V-Accordion (цифровых баянов и аккордеонов). Эта компактная, легкая модель предлагает ту же гибкость и портативность, что и раньше, но добавляет новые возможности, в том числе USB, а также более продвинутую систему давления в мехе, что увеличивает его чувствительность и отзывчивость.

Со встроенными динамиками нового поколения и расширенным дисплеем (7-segment/3-character), а также долгоиграющими батарейками FR-1 (баян и аккордеон) остается очень легким по весу.

Для профессионального аккордеониста (баяниста) FR-1х также очень удобен в путешествиях. Из-за своего малого веса и компактных размеров он помещается в верхнем багажном отделении большинства самолетов, а также может легко подключаться к любому усилителю или акустической системе на больших площадках.
