[@reidsoundz9905]

You dropping Kerouac though the glitch FX is the best things I’ve seen all day

[@StoreDJ_online]

haha, he's got so many lines to make great samples with, thanks!

[@pascalv.3021]

At first I thought that the E-4 was the least interesting unit of the three. In the end, the E-4 demo was the best part of the video. Impressive little machines.

[@BassBaseBerlin]

Great video, nice details. These units seem to be very cool fun stuff. And as you - I will not be vocalist in front of other humans ... but this demo was cool! Just taking some speech and play around ... so maybe the E-4 can also be great fun. Thanks for sharing, liked and best regards, Stefan

[@StoreDJ_online]

Cheers Stefan! Yeah you can run anything through for fun glitch fx, it's really fun

[@schmapps1]

If you have the J-6 connected through the mix-in, can you use the sidechain on the T-8 so that it affects the Incoming J-6 signal as well? Thx

[@WrvrUgoThrUR]

Now this is my kinda demotorial👍🏽

[@jessfrancofan]

Rolca Series 1!

[@CALITRIXfitness]

Look at Roland following The volca trend 10 years later haha. I will likely buy all of these 😅

[@StoreDJ_online]

haha, they'll pair nicely with a lot of the Volca range for sure!

[@BMakk205]

Do they come with the cord to sync them together? If not what are they called?

[@StoreDJ_online]

unfortunately not, it's a mono TR cable with 3.5mm jacks required for the analog sync. Similar deal with the MIDI ports, but TRS jacks required, in other words, a standard stereo headphone cable

[@TheGreatPanicker]

When do these come out because every retailers I see says to pre-order them?

[@StoreDJ_online]

Late May/early June is the latest ETA for us 😀

[@dinogoldie9716]

Does the E4 provide phantom power or does it only work with dynamic mics?

[@Hakucho64]

No phantom power.

[@sparkleglitch13]

Hi, any idea of price for these, I can’t see them on the store yet :-)

[@StoreDJ_online]

hi there, online now at AUD$319 😀

[@bombjelly5795]

$200

[@MarkCisOfTheLoonieLeft]

@@bombjelly5795 $300

[@justaname1862]

Come on Roland...since when have you been in the Toy market.

[@poor_impulsive]

These would have been perfect in rehab :( The pocket calculators did the job.

[@adelinrapcore]

Huge sound with only 32 steps sequencer and no pattern chaining. If it will cost more than 150 bucks i am gonna say a big no

[@Skizzzzyyyyy]

200 :(

[@adelinrapcore]

@@Skizzzzyyyyy now seriously uno drum is less than 200 and its PACKED with features..

[@reidsoundz9905]

Soundz like the perfect candidate for sequencing w my Circuit Trx

[@MarkCisOfTheLoonieLeft]

LOL.. $300 a piece where I live and these seem very average. may as well go pro straight away buy an mpc or a daw.

[@adelinrapcore]

@@MarkCisOfTheLoonieLeft at this money you can go for a korg electribe 2 sampler sh

[@frankieserious6512]

Overpriced

[@EnochDark]

Twice as much as all the Behringer boxes that may or may not ever be made and most likely will last at least 2x as long so to me they're priced what they're worth. Heck $200 is same as I paid for things like Uno and Skulpt. My Omnichord was $200 (10 years ago) and I see the J-6 as a massive improvement...

[@frankieserious6512]

It's the Roland Cloud software inside a box, that's overpriced. If I need software I use better sounding Juno emulations, there are 2 or 3 different software brands that are better sounding than Roland. If I need a box I'll buy analog, so a higher price would be acceptable.

[@EnochDark]

@@frankieserious6512 No it's ACB. I avoided a Verselab bc of the "Cloud." I've been a Dawless producer from day one. Seriously though with gas almost 5 bucks a gallon how anyone thinks 200 bucks is a lot of $?

[@frankieserious6512]

@@EnochDark ACB is the same digital code written for a dsp that you find in the software Cloud version. The only difference is that the samples computed are digitally to analog converted by the sound card of the box VS. the sound card of your daw ( if you don't buy the box and use the software version). The comparison with the fuel price is nonsense, sorry. Everything costs more today, better keep your money and don't throw it on another software plugin inside a box. Buy cheap analog that sounds good to your ears. Just my opinion, have a nice weekend :)

[@EnochDark]

@@frankieserious6512 I didn't ask for an explanation. Again I don't have a DAW. Is it still nonsense for someone without a DAW? As mentioned in another comment I already have an Omnichord. Didn't ask for your opinion either.
