young players, music studios, and schools. They are the most compact of
all V-Accordions, but cut no corners in sound quality. It’s also a
perfect instrument for the professional accordionist and live performer.
The FR-1x’s battery power and onboard speakers make it ideal for the
strolling accordionist. The FR-1x is great instrument for musicians who
perform musical styles such as folk, rock, roots-rock, blues, zydeco,
and more.

onboard speakers or play privately with ear buds or headphones (sold

a dozen different accordion sounds instantly. There are even orchestral
instruments onboard, as well as virtual tone wheel organs with realistic
rotary effects. The FR-1x also includes onboard manual drum/percussion
sounds that can be played with the bass and chord buttons!
USB memory port and USB
Computer port on board The USB memory port allows you to easily
store data such as User Program, and to upload new sounds, thanks to the
USB Flash Memory. Moreover you can manage MP3 and Wave files using the
optional USB Flash Memory. Their playback is a good educational
application and can enhance live performances too. The USB computer port
is dedicated to MIDI computer applications, such as sequencer software
programs.

sensitivity Thanks to Roland’s sound generator that is
optimized for Accordion performance, the FR-1x will satisfy even the
most demanding accordion player. Thanks to this new technology
accordionists can feel perfectly at ease when playing their music especially once they have experienced the enhanced response of this
instrument.
Set Editor software A dedicated software program allows you to
create a dedicated User Set for the FR-1x with access to all Orchestra,
Orchestra Bass and Orchestra Chord sounds. It will be available on the
