Here at Roland PMTVUK, we were lucky enough to get our hands on the brand new Roland FA-06 workstation keyboard for a full review with Gareth Bowen from Roland UK. It's a brand new music workstation with top notch Integra-7 sounds, a 16 track midi sequencer, full colour screen, full sampler capability with 16 pads, huge supernatural sound library, mountains of Fx for each channel, new Total global fx, USB and dedicated buttons for fast DAW integration and it's all saved to high capacity SD cards! Designed to be the ideal keyboard for the studio and for gigging, it's easy to use and fast workflow will make it a very popular choice for many musicians looking for flexibility, and the best bit of all is that all of this is available at a very affordable price ! Available as the 61 synth key FA-06 and the 88 note weighted FA-08, these are going to be very popular with keyboard players right across the board !
If you use a workstation to make music, you'll recognise the dilemma. Studio keyboards don't cut it live, and live keyboards don't get on with studio gear, so each instrument solves only half of your problems.

The new Roland FA-06 workstation makes the problems disappear; studio heads will love the built-in audio interface and DAW integration, and live players will appreciate the pro-quality keyboard and 5.7kg weight. And whichever camp you're in, you'll definitely love the huge collection of sounds, taken from the popular Integra-7 module and spanning the entire musical spectrum. Each of the 16 parts has its own effects engine, each with 67 effect types, on top of dedicated processors for drums, EQ, chorus and reverb. Add a powerful sampler and easy to use sequencer and you've got all the tools of the trade - ready to make music wherever you are.
