The Seaboard Block Studio Edition from ROLI is the brands highly versatile and compact version of their world-renowned Seaboard. Boasting a level of expression which belies its reduced dimensions, it gives you the platform to go and create craft detailed, layered soundscapes; it’s the perfect production companion. Fully compatible with the leading DAW’s and software suites, you’ll be delivering supreme sounding sonics in no time at all!
Alternate Dimensions
Boasting a soft, highly playable, touch-responsive surface, the Seaboard is an absolute joy to play. You can quickly make and alter unique, varied sounds in seconds using a range of intuitive controls. Strike to sound a single note; glide your fingers to bend the pitch; slide up and down for modulation; press and hold to add more depth to a sound; lift your fingertips and increase or decrease the level of resonance.
Expansion Pack
The Seaboard Block Studio is part of the ROLI family of modular controllers; this makes it possible to expand its potential and playing surface using the built-in magnetic connectors. You could connect it to the Live Block, another Seaboard Block, or the Lightpad Block. Each will open up a tonne of extra creative options, letting you assign functions, tweak performances in real-time and shape production parameters, depending on your choices.
Software Selection
A range of powerful and smart software has been included to really enhance your productions and increase the Seaboard blocks versatility. ROLI Studio (split into 2 plugins – ROLI Studio Drums and ROLI Studio Player) packs together pioneering tools, easy-to-read interfaces, intriguing effects and 500 plus sounds (alongside 300+ MPE variants) into one streamlined package.
ROLI Studio drums is a world-first MPE (MIDI polyphonic expression) plugin which revolutionises the way that you program your beats. An in-depth, but easy to master system known as 5D touch allows you to warp and manipulate drum sounds to your hearts content; you can even apply and adjust up to 4 audio effects at the same time.
On the other hand, ROLI Studio Player is made for melodies. Add texture and detail to your drum tracks with premium melodic tones. There’s over 200 acoustic, synth and hybrid-acoustic presets for you to explore and experiment with here. That’s not to mention the inclusion of Tracktion Waveform 8, Max MSP and Strobe2 as well!
You’ll be composing and producing more efficiently and effectively too. ROLI Studio provides smart chords (suggesting which chord to select after each note you perform), a multi-layered arpeggiator (producing rhythms with 3 arp layers) and effects/macros (ensuring you can tweak your sound in real-time).
