Description Extended Information
The Roland VP550 Vocal and Ensemble keyboard is much more than a traditional vocoder or harmonizer, the VP-550 uses Roland's breakthrough vocal-modeling technology to bring the highest-quality, interactive vocal sounds to a dedicated instrument. The VP-550 is perfect for musicians who can't accommodate a choir or group of background singers for their gigs or recording sessions. Connect a mic, select a sound, and play. You won't believe what can come out of this Roland digital keyboard: spectacular classical choirs, soulful gospel choirs, pop and jazz voices, male and female ensembles, vintage vocoder, and lush string/vocal hybrids.

Vocal-Modeling Magic
The human voice is the most expressive musical instrument of all, so why not use it as a tool to create ultra-realistic and expressive "virtual vocals" with words generated from your own voice? Whether you need one voice, a full choir, or surreal vocoder-like layers, the Roland VP-550 can deliver the interactive, expressive vocal backing you need. The VP-550 is also equipped with world-class string sounds, which can be blended together with the vocal effects.

Practical Advantage
Not specific to one style of music, the VP-550 can be used for a wide variety of musical applications. It's ideal for musicians who perform alone or in small groups, for example, and who need an interactive, real-time backing chorus. Or, film and TV music composers who are challenged with time and budget can use the VP-550 to generate high-impact choral arrangements on the spot. Churches in need of a choir (or choir enhancer) will love the VP-550. The creative possibilities are vast, as are the time/money savings that this instrument can provide.

Robot Charm
The VP-550 keyboard is also equipped with high-resolution vocoder modeling, which can be used to generate surreal vocal effects -- great for electronica, pop, R&B, hip-hop, and the like. Inject a dose of "robot voice" charm into your next recording without the hassle and expense of a separate vocoder.

Friendly Face
One look at the VP 550's inviting front panel and you'll know that this electronic keyboard has "user friendly" written all over it. There are no hidden menus or complicated key commands required. Every feature has a dedicated button or slider that's clearly labeled and easy to reach. Performers will especially love how inviting and inspiring the VP550 is to use onstage.
