At NAMM 2025, we caught up with David from Roland, who introduced us to the latest release, the Roland V-Stage. This all-in-one keyboard is tailored for keyboard enthusiasts, featuring dedicated sections for various sounds, including organ, acoustic piano, and dual synthesizers. It supports quick operational functionality enhanced by multiple sound engines. The V-Piano section offers virtual piano capabilities utilizing modeling instead of sample-based methods, featuring brand new sounds like the upright V-Piano.
You can explore the Supernatural E-Piano, with its blend of sampling and modeling technologies, or delve into the virtual tone wheel organ, equipped with harmonic bars and advanced rotary effects. Additional features of the V-Stage include unlimited polyphony for organ and V-Piano, and a shared 256 voices for synthesizer parts. It also includes a USB-C audio/MIDI interface, effects section with over 90 types, and a microphone input fitting for stage performers. The V-Stage is now available in 76 and 88-key versions.
