The fourth and final day of the NAMM 2019 show built upon the success of the previous days, with coverage from some of the biggest vendors, as well as some lesser known treasures. Guitars, pedals, amps, keyboards, and other pro audio products were the main focus of the last day of NAMM show, but there was so much more going on to keep everyone on their toes. While things were coming to an end on the last day, there was no shortage of new announcements from many of the companies on the show floor.<\/p>\n

Roland seriously impressed with their newly debuted FP-10<\/a> keyboard series. This new keyboard features a lightweight design, progressively weighted keys, and Roland\u2019s famous piano sound library tones. The keyboard itself is meant to sound like a classic grand piano, but without the weight or upkeep that those larger instruments require. It also comes loaded with Bluetooth MIDI capabilities so that the user can connect to their smartphone, tablet, and various apps to use alongside the piano.<\/p>\n

Eventide:<\/h4>\n

At the booth this year at the 2019 NAMM show, Eventide released their brand new Rose delay effects pedal. The stunningly purple pedal is designed with controls for tweaking the delay of your instrument until your heart\u2019s content, with knobs for Mix, Feedback, Depth, Delay, Filter, and Rate. The pedal also sports a Delta Multiplier setting, which allows the user to warp the sample rate of the delayed effect for some wild and expansive effects to add to their sound using the Rose.<\/p>\n

Not only did Tascam launch brand new handheld recorders, but the company unveiled its new USB interfaces. Musicians, podcasters, videographers, and those who do any kind of voice or audio recording will be excited by the DR-05X<\/a>, the DR-07X<\/a>, and the DR-40X<\/a>, which pairs the brand’s well-known ease-of-use with high-quality audio power. Tascam has also released the SERIES 102i<\/a> and 208i<\/a> USB audio\/MIDI interfaces, which greatly simplify audio processing, feature 24-bit, 192 kHz recording, and can fit both small and professional recording studios. <\/p>\n

This year at the Strandberg Guitars booth, the company had a very exciting announcement to make, as the Swedish guitar makers announced their first-ever production bass guitar! That\u2019s right, the all-new Boden Original and Boden Prog basses hit the floor of the 2019 NAMM show, and feature specs like 4- and 5-string configurations, 33-34\u201d scale lengths, custom Nordstrand pickups, Darkglass tone capsules, and Nordstrand 3-band preamps. Of course, the instruments feature the famous Strandberg Endurneck design, which promotes comfortable playing and ease of performance with the guitars.<\/p>\n
