Roland Lifetime Key SRX PIANO II (eLicense)

The legendary SRX PIANO II brings you a meticulously sampled 88-note acoustic grand piano that defined professional music production for over two decades. Originally the eleventh title in Roland's acclaimed SRX wave expansion board series, this world-class instrument features high-resolution stereo sampling with four-way velocity switching and expressive nuances. The result is clear tone, bright harmonics, and an ultra-wide dynamic range that suits virtually all musical styles.

Before virtual instrument plug-ins became the norm, Roland keyboards and sound modules like the JV-1080, XP-80, and XV-5080 were the professional standard for accessing diverse, high-quality sounds. These instruments could be expanded with user-installable boards, each containing specialised sampled waveforms for different genres. Roland's wave expansion concept launched in 1992 with the JV-80 synth and eventually grew to over 30 titles across multiple formats and instrument generations.

The SRX software synthesiser plug-ins now bring these beloved sounds from Roland's legacy SRX and SR-JV80 wave expansion boards into modern production workflows. Digital Circuit Behaviour (DCB) technology reproduces every detail by combining the original sample ROM with advanced behaviour modelling that replicates the hardware's digital components and circuitry. An intuitive interface allows sound editing and saving within the plug-in for use across different projects.

Deep synth editing parameters let you customise sounds to your exact requirements, while knobs and sliders on contemporary Roland hardware synthesisers like the SYSTEM-8 can map directly to the plug-ins. This integration provides hands-on control that speeds up your workflow and maintains the tactile connection that made the original hardware so popular with the world's top producers, composers, and performers.
