Offering the sounds of a first-call session band in a single plug-in, the Roland SRX STUDIO Lifetime Key Software Synthesizer is an accurate replica of the original SRX wave expansion board that focuses on core studio instruments sampled with natural ambience. Filled with detailed recordings from professional studios across the globe, this versatile collection delivers expressive pianos, crisp guitars, refined wind instruments, punchy bass and drums, and much more. With such a wide range of mix-ready sounds on tap—plus built-in effects—you can build an entire professional production using multiple instances of this one plug-in.
The plug in comes with a Roland Cloud Lifetime Key, which is managed online and provides 24-hour access to all updates and enhancement at no additional charge. A free Roland Account is required to access Roland Cloud Manager.
- Before virtual instrument plug-ins became commonplace, Roland's instruments like the JV-1080, XP-80, XV-5080, and numerous others offered the ability to expand their sounds with user-installable SRX wave expansion boards, each loaded with a specialized sampled waveform set for different styles and genres.
- Roland’s wave expansion board releases eventually grew to over 30 titles including strings, brass, pianos, electric pianos, keyboards, orchestral, and dance sounds.
- 1605 waveforms, 128 patches, and 12 rhythm sets
- Digital Circuit Behavior (DCB) faithfully captures every detail of the original hardware
- Intuitive user interface with deep sound-shaping parameters
- Enhance sounds with built-in reverb, chorus, and 78 multi-effect types
- Save customized sounds in unlimited user banks
- The SRX plug-in features deep synth editing parameters to customize sounds any way you like. Knobs and sliders on contemporary Roland hardware synthesizers like the SYSTEM-8 can map to the plug-ins, speeding up your workflow with direct, hands-on control.
- The Lifetime Key system provides an evolving service that includes free lifetime updates, cloud-based mobility with installation for up to five devices, plus access to current Test Drive promotions of instruments and patch collections.
- A Lifetime Key is a cloud-based authorization for Roland Cloud instruments. Roland Cloud Membership and Lifetime Keys are managed through an online ID called a Roland Account.
- A free Roland Account is required to access Roland Cloud Manager and will periodically connect to the internet to authorize your Membership and/or Lifetime Keys.
- Lifetime Key is active as long as your Roland account is active—even if you’re not a paying member.
