Elevate your sounds with the workstation's extensive effects options. Each of the 16 parts in a studio set can be individually processed with its own MFX engine, while the TFX (total effects) allow you to apply captivating effects to the entire mix. Real-time control is at your fingertips with the Sound Modify knobs, adding dynamic expression to your live performances and studio productions.

The onboard sampler of the FA-07 offers hands-on operation, with sampling and playback facilitated by SDHC cards. Trigger audio samples directly from the 16 front-panel pads, enriching your performances with loops, backing tracks, and various sound effects. The use of SDHC flash memory means your samples are ready to play instantly, with no loading time.

For those who command a larger setup, the FA-07's studio sets now include master control functionality, transforming the workstation into a master controller for both studio and live environments. Save and send out MIDI messages like bank select, program change, and volume with a single command, seamlessly integrating the FA-07 with multiple external devices.

The FA-07's prowess extends to DAW integration, offering a smooth transition into any digital audio workstation setup. With the DAW Control button, the workstation can instantly communicate with your software via USB. Dedicated control maps for popular DAWs ensure easy operation, while the FA-07 can also serve as a USB audio interface, allowing you to record various sources directly into your DAW.

Included with the FA-07 is a free license for Ableton Live Lite, pairing your workstation with a powerful DAW right out of the box. Whether you're performing live, composing in the studio, or integrating with computer-based recording systems, the Roland FA-07 76-Key Semi-Weighted Music Workstation is your key to unlocking endless musical possibilities.
