At the 2012 NAMM Show, Roland iintroduced the PK-6 Dynamic Pedalboard, a pedal MIDI controller that lets you control virtually any MIDI function using your feet.
Connect the PK-6 to any MIDI-compatible keyboard or sound module, and instantly add bass lines, harmonies, drum/percussion sounds, and even sound effects to your performances.
Features:
- MIDI merge
- PK out
- External pedal jack
- One-foot operation of four separate performance modes
- 13 velocity-sensitive pedals
- Transpose over a nine-octave tonal range.
The PK-6 will be available in April 2012. Pricing is to come.
dont suppose the price of the PK-5 will go down…
roland has THE CHEESIEST PRODUCT VIDEOS EVER.
Let’s enumerate the failings of that promotional video:
– Looks like it was shot in a church basement. Or possibly an all-ages club.
– Music straight out of a Health & Safety training video from 1997.
– Video and lens flare effects reminiscent of your high school A.V. club’s finest efforts.
– “Switch On The Excitment”? Are they marketing vibrators or pedalboards?
Soooo, other than a Pk-6 connection; what exactly is being introduced here ???
pedal controllers, midi guitars ( controllers ) when is the analogue legend of yore going to wake up?
