A variety of “lively” soundsA first-class selection of sounds have been “captured live” including stunning sampled Guitar and Piano sounds. The E-80 features electric and twelve string guitar, 88-key split stereo-sampled piano tones and timbres that change according to finger pressure. Newly sampled drum kits (Rock, Pop and Folk to name a just a few) have a realistic, natural resonance and various one-shot sampled drum articulations such as Cymbal Roll bring sophisticated drum styles to your performance. Breathtaking musical contentsThe E-80 comes with more than 350 styles created by a team of international programmers. All these styles sounds incredibly “live” and are expertly mixed and mastered.
Each tone and drum instrument has individual EQ, along with three dedicated multi-effects for the overall Style/Song. High quality playback of your SMF Enjoy the new sound potential by playing back your favourite Standard MIDI files, which will play back flawlessly thanks to the powerful new technology within.
Moreover thanks to the Song Makeup Tools editing you can easily customise your songs using the intuitive graphic interface. Powerful onboard speaker systemThe E-80 delivers incredible, hi-impact sound thanks to its powerful four-speaker, bi-amped sound system, complete with a Bass Reflex System and a Digital Bass Enhancer. The E-80 also provides the “Speaker Modelling” to easily change the sound character of the speaker just by pressing a switch.
Finally a dedicated switch allows you to disable the built-in speakers if you need to connect to an external amplifier. Attractive cosmetic designEven the most demanding aesthete will be surprised by the brand-new cosmetic design of the E-80 music workstation.
The outstanding new cosmetic cabinet comes from a top Italian design studio. Truly, the E-80 is a treat for the eyes and the ears. Vocal Harmonist built-inThe E-80’s Vocal Harmonist has over 80 different settings plus additional effects and features, including Voice-FX, Auto Pitch, Singer, Vocoder, Small/Ensemble and Talk. Guitar ModeThe acclaimed Guitar Mode function is now available together with dedicated Guitar Mode button. Guitar strumming and various articulations can be controlled directly from the keyboard for both realtime performance and programming (on User Style Composer, 16-Track Sequencer and external software Sequencer). User-Friendly interfaceThe E-80 features many switches, buttons and sliders on its control panel ensuring that the most commonly used operations can be accessed quickly and simply. A full-colour graphic touchscreen means that this is one of the easiest keyboards to operate currently available. 2 x Expansion slotsThe E-80 provides two SRX expansion slots, allowing users to expand and customise the internal sound set to suit personal taste.
Roland’s SRX and SR-G01 expansion board series offers a wide selection of the highest quality sounds produced in some of the world’s top studios. Text and Image ViewerThe E-80 is able to import and show both (.TXT) and image files (.BMP) and by connecting to an external monitor your E-80 can easily display text, lyrics, photos and slideshows. Dual Mastering ToolsFor detailed sound control, the E-80 provides powerful mastering tools (Parametric EQ, Multi-Band Compressor) for Accompaniment (Style/Song) and Solo parts.

A USB connector allows files (Styles, Songs, User Programs, Bmp Images, File Text) to be exchanged with PC or MAC and also provides MIDI communication.
