Roland was founded as a manufacturer of various musical instruments and studio equipment on 18 April 1972 in Osaka, Japan. Among the earliest products to reach the market were the first rhythm machines of the TR series, whose successors TR-808, TB-303 and TR-909 had a decisive influence on the techno, electro and hip-hop scenes. In the mid-1970s the JC-120 Jazz Chorus guitar amplifier was developed, whose ultra-clear sound together with the built-in chorus effect won over both Andy Summers of The Police and Kirk Hammett and James Hetfield of Metallica. Since then and to this day Roland have continuously expanded their catalogue across a wide range of fields such as digital pianos, grooveboxes, e-drums and synthesizers with high-quality and interesting products.

I use it with my foot. Works ok. Difficult to set the threshold and sensitivity to an acceptable/playable level. Good build quality. File transfer is a bit cumbersome but works ok. The pedal has a high profile which makes it awkward to play with foot, I made a little platform to raise my foot to the level of the playing surface. Overall I'm satisfied, it's the only device that does what I need but it could be greatly improved, e.g. no tuning of samples, only 11 sample slots, limited sensitivity/threshold options etc.
Macht sehr Spaß! Verlässlich und leicht zu bedienen. Wem es das Geld wert ist - absolute Kaufempfehlung.
