"Having five dimensions of touch available simultaneously via single/ multiple keys (plus all the assignable left panel control) lets you achieve sound-shaping that simply can't be achieved with a standard keyboard and this is the RISE's key selling point".
The new ROLI Seaboard RISE 49 is a four octave model of the multi award winning Seaboard RISE controller. It is reviewed in the new issue of Future Music magazine
"The RISE's five 'dimensions' are key to the RISE's uniqueness. Strike = MI DI velocity; Press= aftertouch which can send channel or poly MIDI messages so that you can affect all, or each note in a chord individually; Glide= left to right finger movement for vibrato/glissando; Slide= the vertical movement of your fingers up/down the keys (great for adding filtering/tonal changes); and Lift = lifting your fingers off the 'keywaves’."
"For anyone bored with standard keyboards, the RISE is an exciting option that brings to life any sound type and I feel the future of the keyboard is in good hands with ROLI”.
The full review can be found in the May 2016 issue of Future Music magazine on sale now. The ROLI Seaboard RISE 49 is also available now at £949 RRP inc VAT.
