ABOUT THE ROLAND CLASSIC SERIES

Although classical acoustic instruments are admired for their beautiful, delicate tones, they are also fragile to maintain and transport, and are out of reach financially for many musicians. Roland Classic Series instruments puts a polish on the allure of these instruments and brings them back to life in the modern age with state-of-the-art digital technology that’s effortless to maintain, easy to transport, and cost effective. Their excellent sound quality and playability, and discerning design give musicians the satisfaction of owning the instrument of their dreams.

Acoustic classical instruments are delicate instruments that typically require careful tuning and maintenance. The Roland Classic Series instruments are based on digital technology that requires no tuning. Enjoy exquisite tones, authentic touch, and perfect tuning anytime. Since there’s no concern for detuning caused by temperature, humidity, or transportation, you can use these instruments on damp or rainy days, in open spaces without air conditioning, or on hot, brightly lit stages.

All models are easy to use. You can begin playing instantly, even if you are not familiar with classical or digital instruments. Select sounds and adjust tone and tuning quickly and easily. All models support classical pitches, such as the Baroque pitch (415Hz) and Versailles pitch (392Hz), as well as classical temperaments such as Werckmeister and Kirnberger. Switch tunings with a touch of a button to play pieces in the correct tunings used during the periods the pieces were written. Tuning function can also correspond to the pitch, such as 420Hz or 465Hz.

These instruments look and sound wonderful wherever they are placed. Their space-saving footprints make it easy to place in rooms large and small. Play in a wide variety of locations — from living rooms and lesson studios to cathedrals. The warm, wood finishes are exquisitely detailed, adding a sense of elegance to any room. Significantly lighter than acoustic instruments, Roland Classic Series instruments are convenient to transport. They are ideal for concerts, recitals, or any performances large or small.

Adjust the volume to suit any environment. Instantly increase the output to match other instruments. The possibilities are endless. Plug in headphones and practice in complete privacy. The sound quality remains perfect whether you adjust the volume up or down, or play through headphones.

Roland C-330 Classic Organ

The baroque was the period in which J. S. Bach, the father of music, wrote his many masterpieces. This was also when organ culture blossomed. Many types of organs were developed during this period — from positive organs, with small bodies and elegant tones, to pipe organs that filled large cathedrals with colossal sound. The music of the era had a miraculous beauty, and Roland’s vision was to bring these rich organ tones closer to our modern lives. Based on this vision, Roland proudly presents its classical organ C-330.

The C-330 delivers grand, magnificent sound that defies its compact size. Its body is only 53.7cm deep (91cm deep including pedalboard). It features a dual-manual keyboard with 61 keys each plus 30 footpedals in a parallel-concave configuration. With a wide variety of high-quality organ tones, the C-330 sets the bar high for sound and performance. Experience pipe-organ power and performance whenever inspiration strikes.

During the resplendent days of the Baroque Period, the harpsichord was the keyboard instrument that colored music with its rich, distinctive tone.
