Seaboard RISE 2: Total Control of Sound

[@catsandsound]

I'm glad to see Roli back. It's a unique instrument. Equator 2 has some fantastic sounds, especially the piano. I would recommend it to anyone.

[@jonathanmurdoch6210]

i was upset that roli shut down and couldn't find a seaboard so I bought a korg modwave but now that everything is back up and running with sb2 ill be a new customer soon 😍

[@Elazarko]

Would be cool to see more acustic piano demonstrations! Thanks Roli!

[@Grahambhuyan]

To be honest I have yet to find a notable difference between the first iteration of the Rise and this one. Don’t get me wrong- I love my Rise and I’m glad these are in production again, but doesn’t feel justified to call it the “RISE 2”

[@WeAreROLI]

Hi Walter, there are 5 key differences. You can read more about them here: roli.com/stories/seaboard-rise-2-preorder-faqs

[@BobDunn0]

@@WeAreROLI two of the changes listed on the FAQ are software. Are there versions of Equator2, ROLI Studio, or ROLI Dashboard that are exclusive to RISE 2 owners, or are these the same as the ones I have for my RISE already?

[@EpicbubbleNITE]

@@BobDunn0 p sure its the same. they say its new but previously the seaboard rises all include equator2 + strobe + everything else and the blocks only got equator1 i think and some other stuff

[@WeAreROLI]

@@BobDunn0 Hi Perry, This is the first time that Equator2 is bundled with a Seaboard. This is the same version that you can buy on our website. The same for ROLI Studio. We have some amazing upgrades planned for Equator2. Dashboard is getting updates too with the RISE 2 in mind and this will be backwards compatible.

[@WeAreROLI]

@@EpicbubbleNITE Hey, this is the first time Equator2 is bundled with a Seaboard.

[@danihjorth2949]

ROLI! You took that guys advice! Last video a guy made a long comment about what you could do better in terms of advertisements! And you took his suggestion! MASSIVE RESPECT!❤️ Will be buying one! Thank you ROLI!❤️

[@WeAreROLI]

Hi Dani, thanks for the love!

[@soulfulandnice]

It looks amazing. I look forward to the day and can play with this MPE to add some expressive dynamics to my own music. I was amazed the first time I saw one!

[@lotusinn3]

I don’t own a rise yet or any ROLI product, but I’ve definitely had my eye on them lately. Maybe this is a sign!

[@WeAreROLI]

[@jodyeyre9840]

Don't do it way to expensive for basically a kids toy. Trust me it's no Korg or Yamaha. Thier patient rights will run out soon then a real company will step up and make a badass board.. 😎

[@edwardhanson318]

That is very nice, and I'm still enjoying and playing with my rise.

[@WeAreROLI]

Hi Edward, glad you are enjoying it! have you tried out Equator2?

[@edwardhanson318]

@@WeAreROLI No, not yet. I have been very busy getting caught up at the office because of the years of lock downs has put us behind. I plan on downloading it and using it in my studio. I also wanted to try and see if I could control any of my 3 Roland D-50s by way of a MIDI connection. That would be awesome. Thanks again ROLI for your great engineering on these equipment.

[@raghav_subbu]

Tron Legacy on this keyboard would be insane

[@robertj1303]

It’s unique in the way it does MPE as is my Jamstik studio guitar, but price still high compared with Korg Synths such as modwave which has super sw and hw platform

[@thedorianmode8087]

I might have to upgrade to the seaboard rise 2. I’m glad Roli is back.

[@kouimette]

I love watching videos of things I will never afford.

[@ehlohimwhil5762]

I'm just glad it's back, because it's even hard for this to be found in resale

[@WeAreROLI]

Thanks for your support!

[@JonasDenolf]

I need this in my life

[@cynical4092]

I have the roli seaboard... and now I need this...

[@Disqualified_Identity]

I want to buy one of these! I’m hesitating because I know I’ll end up wanting all of the plug-ins and effects. The price will get out of hand very fast. Every time I buy a new peripheral that uses plugins, i forget to factor in the extra cost.

[@picksalot1]

Do the "keys" move up and down at all, providing some sort of tactile feedback? It look like there's lots of tension in the performer's hands as the stretch to get their fingers into the right positions. Maybe narrower "keys" would be better. 🤷

[@trijobr5473]

2:10 flower dance 🕺

[@alexiscarre1150]

Hi, I’ve been considering buying myself a Seaboard, but would like to test one out before making the purchase. Is that possible ? Do you have any stores in northern France or do you sell through other stores ? I can’t seem to find any info . Thanks!

[@Patrick.Johannaswedukr4776]

Beautiful piano

[@vontroneg1016]

I love the first melody of the video. Is it a unique composition or from another song? Reminds me of some Ulver songs.

[@a.richards2144]

Oh man I know if I could afford this it would be all I could play

[@iamsushi1056]

Will the rise 2 have polyphonic pitch bend á la Expressive E Osmose? That’s really the only feature I want in a keyboard

[@nothought108]

Are the sounds in this demo included with the keyboard?

[@Prod.Ashtro]

Will you make a smaller more portable version?

[@Blankspace_CL]

There is already one, the Seaboard Block if I remember correctly

[@waidi3242]

2:11 isn't that "Flower Dance" by DJ Okawari but in different key?

[@user-xw9ry3uf2w]

Yes

[@milou22rh]

This will become my baby although I'm sad Seaboard Grand is discontinued.

[@yoni3919]

Looks like a dream

[@sound4label]

Is the Piano coming from Equator ? :) For the rest of the video, amazing features, blue color is beautiful, can't wait to receive it :) !

[@YEAHKINDA]

I want that so bad but it's so expensive! About time I got the motivation I needed to earn money. :)

[@misoranranran]

私はこれが日本で買えるようになるのを楽しみにしています

[@djz2308]

How quickly will a smaller version be coming out?

[@Disqualified_Identity]

Is the Seaboard compatible with every DAW and effects plugin?

[@blacklavoux]

That logo tho 🙌🏻

[@rich_in_paradise]

I want to buy this, but even though I signed up for emails, I didn't get a launch notification and now they're not available until December :(

[@TWB-inks]

The first part what’s the instrument called & song played ?

[@fredericpiguet1980]

it look amazing, but i have a question, i alway see apple computer plug to all seaboard, it is compatible with windows or no ? ROLI have a software for seaboard to windows ? Sorry for my english i'm french.

[@wokitikether1912]

This is just epic

[@Bubelmanen]

Whut what! You actually played Flower Dance by Okawari?? 2:11

[@csabakulik]

Hi What is the name of the first preset in equator?

[@nogoogleplus]

Is this compatible with Mac OS Sonoma? Please advise, thanks!

[@macraur]

what diffences are between seaboard 1 and seaboard 2? (in practice)

[@NBN-piano]

Excellent

[@dearkaryaa]

can we use these with headphones?

[@mondo6595]

the piano part is very nice is it some kinda chords being played automatically

[@namida_music]

The entire piano section is inspired from DJ Okawari's Flower Dance

[@_just_saying]

you can literally see the guy playing the song there - manually. what drugs you on mate?

[@疗愈之音林泽鑫]

the piano is beautify

yes. It is stated on their website. Logic Pro instruments can be set to work with Block, Rise and the Grand.

@@WeAreROLI Thanks

[@benjaminhoward4630]

@@WeAreROLI Wishing you all the best with your new product introduction. I'm still loving my original Rise 49! The fact that #2 is more of a minor to moderate refinement of the concept demonstrates how far ahead the original was.

I guess all the updates are at hardware and firmware

[@stanz7193]

Wish it had built in sounds and was plug and play like Osmose synth ....I absolutely hate having to use a computer...or bring a computer live. It's also very frustrating to have to go through a computer or a midi host to use it to control hardware synth for mpe to midi .... Why can't you guys make a hardware brain with built in sounds we can use to plug directly into the mixer? Instead of having to research mpe comparable hardware ....

A midi keyboard is much more worth it than this 😭 you can add all of those things like slide using your daw and it’s not gonna cost you 1,400 dollars… even buying omnisphere is cheaper and that is such a good plug-in.

[@Bruckner]

What do you recommend for a noob? Controller and software.

[@hiro-mk4jn]

@@Bruckner honestly, if you pick up something like the MPK mini midi controller, that’s all you need with your software. A midi controller is so versatile, plus it’s in the $100 area. I use fl studio and that software is very good too.

[@ap0ria]

This really feels like a slightly desperate grab at staying relevant. Found a niche in expensive midi controllers that couldn’t keep Roli afloat. Stopped production. “Maybe we’ll try to sell them a very very slightly redesigned product and see if we can keep our lifestyle company afloat for another few years.” Buyer beware.
