Anaheim CA, January 17, 2008—Roland is proud to announce the new AT- 900/AT-900C/AT-800 organs. Embodying Roland’s world-leading technology, MUSIC ATELIER organs inherit the full, rich sounds and elegant design of a traditional organ combined with the most expressive and advanced digital-organ features.

With a new “Articulation Voice” sound set, driven by Roland’s new proprietary SuperNATURAL technology, the AT-series breathes unprecedented sound into the Violin, Trombone, Cello, and Tenor Sax voices, while new physical Harmonic Bars provide authentic, hands-on control of expressive organ playing with new organ tone sets. The D BEAM controller lets you wave your hand over the invisible infrared beam to alter the sound for greater freedom of expression. To make operation even easier, all models feature a large color touch-panel LCD. With an USB memory key, a high degree of data compatibility ensures that registrations can be exchanged between different models and even from floppy disks.

The flagship AT-900 offers the stately beauty of an impeccably crafted organ console. Crafted in America from seasonal natural wood, this organ is the genuine article.

The AT-900C is similarly gorgeous and stately, but this smaller unit is portable enough to be taken on the road. The contemporary, streamlined cabinet design combines an elegant Polished Cherry finish with eye-catching silver accents. Specially equipped XLR outputs facilitate professional setups for concert performances.

The AT-800 model offers a beautifully crafted cabinet finished in natural wood, a softly lit control panel and an advanced sound source. AT-800 ATELIER organ provides an outstanding organ playing experience at an affordable price.

Options include the BNC-23 (for AT-900C) or BNC-27-WN (for AT-800) organ benches, the PK-25A (for AT-900C) 25-key pedalboard, PK-7A (for AT-900C), SA-1000 Stage Amplifier for recitals and concerts in small-to-large halls, RH-300 headphones, and much, much more.

If space and cost were not a constraint almost everybody would have loved to own an acoustic grand piano. The grand piano is a majestic instrument and not only does it looks good it sounds great as well. But unfortunately not everybody can afford one as everybody has a limited budget and space. Besides everybody needs the features associated with a digital instrument. This is what makes the Digital Piano so popular among a lot of people.

A digital piano was developed as an alternative to the acoustic piano but the sound producing mechanism in a digital piano is totally different. Digital pianos use high quality samples to produce piano sounds. The better the samples the more expensive the digital piano becomes.

Another important factor is the keyboard touch & feel. A Digital piano needs to have keys which feel almost like real keys of an acoustic piano. The better digital pianos come with graded hammer action which simply means that the keys are heavier on the bass side and get gradually lighter as you move to the right of the keyboard. This is how the keys feel on an acoustic piano.

A few other digital pianos have the look of a digital keyboard and they are designed to be portable. They are lightweight and can be easily moved around. They are used by gigging musicians and are referred to as stage pianos.

All the Digital pianos have a slot to connect a headphone so that you can practice without disturbing others. Also, there are no maintenance & tuning activities needed for a digital piano.
