Roland SP-555

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Roland SP-555 is a music sampler. It has many new features that set it aside from its predecessors. The sampler has 37 built in effects that can be assigned to any of the 16 pressure-sensitive pads. It also has a microphone input that accepts 1/4 inch phone type, XLR type, Hi-Z, and has Phantom Power. This helps to create better sounding, on the site samples. Also, a new feature in the loop capture. This enables you to create a looping sample that you can add to until recording is stopped. Another feature is the D Beam feature which allows you to control 3 different effects with your hand. These effects include synth, trigger, and filter. Also, V-Link enables you to connect the sampler to lighting and effects and the lights will match to the beat of the sample or loop creating a better on stage performance.
