Roland reveals Eurorack modular synths

SYSTEM-500 contains five products

Just a day after unveiling these slick headphones, Roland's divulged details of its new analog synth modules.

Modelled on the Japanese company's classic SYSTEM-100M, the Eurorack-designed range includes the 512 (a dual voltage controlled oscillator), the 521 (a dual voltage controlled filter with filters to manage frequencies and resonance) and the 530 (a dual voltage amp that gives you control over audio signal volume).

The other two are the 540 Dual Envelope Generator and LFO (a multi-purpose unit armed with attack, decay, sustain and release envelope sections that can control other Eurorack synths) and the 572 that contains a five-stage phase shifter, analog audio display, low frequency oscillator and a control voltage gate delay.

Worried they might get damaged in your possession? No problem as Roland's also introduced the lightweight SYR-E84 Eurorack case for them to live in. Black aluminium on the inside and wooden outside, it can also house other AIRA instruments such as the SYSTEM-1m and Demora.

Head to Roland AIRA site to see more details.
