Roland SP555 Creative Sampler with Performance Effects

The SP-555 from Roland breaks ground with innovative features such as loop capture, super filter, D-Beam and V-Link technology. It's fast, powerful, and endlessly fun. It's the ultimate toolkit for DJs, producers, sample-based musicians, or performers who want to take their act to the next level.

Sample On Stage

The SP-555 is an easy-to-use and ultra-powerful sampler that allows you to capture sounds instantly onstage with either line or mic Inputs, or through USB audio streaming. This is the ultimate tool for Djs and performers who need to grab sounds and drop 'em into the mix on the stage. The SP-555 also supports up to 2GB CompactFlash cards for over 12 hours of recording with no-load playback.

Powerful FX

With 37 types of powerful DSP effects to alter your sounds, you'll never run out of fresh new ideas. Included in the lineup are Voice Transformer, Delay, Isolator, and the unique Super Filter and DJFX Looper, The Effect Memory allows for instant recall of your favorite settings using the pads with no glitching while switching effects.

D-Beam and V-Link Technology

The SP-555 features the unique, show-stopping D-BEAM and V-LINK technologies. The invisible D Beam can be trigger with a wave of the hand to tweak the SP-555's filter, trigger samples, or to play synth solos. Connect V-LINK compatible video equipment and sync the music to the visuals.

Live Loop Capture

To further expand your live show, the SP-555 features a “live loop capture” function that allows you to grab a piece of incoming audio or a loop of your live performance and instantly play it back in perfect time with your other tracks. These loops can also be captured through the effects in real time and assigned to a pad for later use. You can even perform sound-on-sound layering with your loops.

Computer Capable

The SP-555 can be used by itself or with a PC as either an audio interface for the bundled Cakewalk SONAR LE software or any other DAW or DJ application on your computer! With the bundled Wave Converter software, WAV and AIFF files can be imported and assigned to a CF card for use in the SP-555 (CF reader needed).
